This book was absolutely incredible. Urban fantasy is my favorite genre, so I am pickier with these books. I loved it from the beginning! A spider shifter — wait, what?!?!?! I have never read about one before and was instantly intrigued. The author did not disappoint. Not only is Aranha a unique and original creature, she is endearing also. She has a heart of gold, does what she thinks is right and will do anything to protect the innocent and those she cares about. But she’s not perfect, she has her own struggles too. The other characters in the book are also well done and make this world even more complete.

Then there is the story. This is also very unique and different. The author did not use a cookie cutter base and make changes . She went out of her way to create something new a different — and blew the others out of the water in the process. The tale she weaves is so magical and gripping. I could not put it down and urge the author to give us more set in this fantastic world.

If you are a fan of urban fantasy with string female lead characters, great supporting characters, and a story of action and heart, this book is for you.

This paranormal read was just simply amazing, the writing was out of this world and I just simply couldn’t put it down. The depths that the author goes to describe our characters were amazing, her plot was fantastic, and her word play was brilliant. Full of paranormal characters, excitement, suspense and more our author really knows how to draw her readers in and keep them on the edge of their seats. One thing that I really loved about this story is that it was told from a duel POV, which made it unique in its in oh way. But what happens when two paths cross to save one human girl? Well you’ll have to read this story to find out for yourself.

Aranha is the last of an extinct species – the webmakers. Raised without a community, she got used to life on the run with her single mother, keeping to the shadows and staying out of trouble. When her mother died, she kept up the practice, and has a very solitary life. Now, she hunts serial killers to cut them down for food. When she meets Dag at a seedy bar, she is shocked to learn that he is also a species nearing extinction – and gives off pheromones for days. The unlikely duo end up on a mission together that will pit them against vampires and werewolves – two species that can kill them with their venom. In the process, they gain some answers about their ancestors and the future of their species.

I enjoyed the plot of the novel, and liked femme fatale Aranha. Her attraction to Dag is scorching. I found myself struggling to keep engaged in some parts, but I’m glad I stuck with it in the end.

Yes Yes Yes!!! This book is just totally fabulous! I was already intrigued by the cover and the story just takes off. The story is paranormal fantasy romance but can I just say I loved having something new of Webmakers? The story really pulls you in……Aranha is a shifter and I really loved her character. She is more like a hero in a sense, preys on bad people who do bad things. She meets Dag, and loved that he is a DayWalker and he is immediately drawn to Aranha. Dag feels like Aranha can help him find out what the vampires are up to…as the feeling is they are up to something not good.

This story is quite amazing and I truly loved it. The characters had me totally drawn to them and the story for me flowed. Totally worth the read!!

Aranha is the last of her kind, a Webmaker, which is basically a spider shifter. She hides in the darkness hunting only those who have done wrong. She is lonely and filled with dark thoughts until one of her hunts turns into a rescue mission for a young werewolf. After she rescues the werewolf, Jonah, he immediately imprints on her causing her dark and dreary life to be less so.

Dag, a Daywalker, is one of few of his kind left. Years ago both the Daywalkers and the Webmakers were eradicated by other supernatural species. Thinking Webmakers were extinct, he was shocked when he saw one waltz into his bar. Dag is immediately interested in Aranha’s existence. At the same time, vampires are up to something and it is up to Dag, Aranha and Jonah to find out exactly what.

I really enjoyed this book, the other took a really interesting concept and turned it into an incredible adventure.

I like finding new authors and I also like new series. I found that this author has a very unique world she has created and really draws the reader in. I really like how the characters are unique and refreshing. I was certainly drawn into this new world and I was not wanting to put the book down.

I like how there is tension as well as a bit of romance. The book is well balanced. I was drawn in with the tension of the factions and just didn’t want to put the book down till I saw how things would end. I look forward to reading more from this author and also see how this series progresses.

I love paranormal stories to begin with and this one did not disappoint. I love when authors come up with different ways of how they interrupt the paranormal, its so refreshing and really makes me think about it. Aranha is an amazing character and the love she has for helping and making everything good. I always enjoy back stories to a character and this one didn’t disappoint, it really makes you understand the character more, and what they have been thou. I loved how creative the characters are in this book. This book was very well written and captivating, it kept me entertained the whole time.

Aranha chacter is nicely written. Dag honestly I struggled with the name as it reminded me of a YouTuber. The characters however did have a great connection and that what is brought into the book.
I would highly recommend reading this for you teenagers.

Delightfully different
I absolutely loved this book. Captivating and well written, this book kept me intrigued right through until the end. Such a unique concept which was delivered brilliantly. Aranha was very easy to like and I connected with her instantly. Dag was an interesting character. I really enjoyed the dual POV and getting into their thoughts and motivations. With action and a bit of romance this paranormal adventure is not to be missed.

You will find yourself engrossed in this unique urban fantasy tale. It is refreshing to see authors come up with new things and this genre is the way to go. This is the authors second book, and I am looking forward to more. I love the cover. Shifters, vampires, and other creatures have staring roles in this tangled web of survival and deceit. Its tale is told from dual POV, so you get a much more in depth look at the characters and the world they belong in. I love that the author makes things look realistic but in a paranormal way. The world that has been created where Webmakers and Daywalkers dwell is easily imagined and is only limited by one’s imagination. There is some violence and a little sexiness.
She has been alone for many many years, preying of the wastes of society. Both find themselves in a battle to save a human girl from the clutches of Vampire’s clutches. Their future and their history have always been entwined. Find out just what does go on in The Garden of Eden.

I enjoyed reading this story. The writing was done beautifully, and the story drew you in and it was like watching a movie. Aranha is a badass spider shifter who can see people’s thoughts and memories through spider webs and track them via webs too. She is the last of her kind and is feeling lonely because of it. Dag the vampire turned me off a little at first, but as the story went on and got to know him better, I liked him a whole lot better. I look forward to reading more by this author and cant wait to see what she cooks up!

I could not get enough of this book, and the writing. I love my paranormal stories. That goes without saying. I loved this one especially though, as it goes really deep into the depth of the characters and the paranormal side as well. This one was full of excitement, as well as suspense. Great read!

Aranha was a great character. I knew right from the start I would be drawn to her with no questions asked. She was convincing in her ways a as a character. She was a born species, that was unlike no other. I loved her backs tory and where she had come from. As well as who she was as a person. Interesting and fascinating all swirled in the same glass. i loved the side characters well They all made this great circles that really built the story as well as its flow. I loved the build up, all the way to the ending. I highly recommend it, I loved this book and really enjoyed the work of this author!

Wonderful read, full of everything and more for a great read! I highly recommend you picking up this book as well as enjoying work by this author. Both are a high recommendation and not ones to be passed up. The author wrote an engaging story, and I loved it. So happy I came across this book!

I enjoyed this paranormal story. This is a well written story about being the last of a species and facing the future and danger. I enjoyed how creative the characters are, especially Aranha and Dag. They are characters that are connectable and have great chemistry throughout the story. They pulled me into the story from the beginning and kept the story engaging. Their story was hard to put down. The author’s use of details made the story not only realistic but made the story entertaining to read. I enjoyed this story and what the characters brought to the story. This is a great pick up and highly recommended.

Two perfect species were created in the garden, but they didn’t stay there.
Aranha is the last of her kind, a spider shifter who preys upon the dregs of society in an attempt to validate her existence and feed her hunger. She’s lived alone for two hundred years, no family and no friends; always watchful for those who would kill her.
Dag is one of a dying species, vampires who can walk in the day. They have lost their companions and live in dread of the day that they too will become extinct; leaving the earth to the vile creatures who prey upon humans without mercy.
Aranha sees danger in Dag’s face, Dag sees the future in hers. Neither can believe the other exists and their lives are about to get very complicated. Together they embark on a mission to save a young human from the vampires and learn the reality of what their two species were doing in The Garden of Eden.
