Resumen del Editor

For 10 years, the people of Valeterra have watched a plague sweep across their world, killing nearly every supernatural creature in its path. As scientists from both the human world and Valeterra work on the way to stop the plague, the Valeterrian government is working on the way to repopulate their world with babies born immune to the disease.

In her 30s, single, and a bit of a bigger woman, Valerie has given up on ever finding love. She’s resigned herself to running her bookstore and growing old with only her baby sister. When a strange woman comes to her store with a story full of parallel universes, supernatural creatures, and plagues, and a proposal for how Valerie can help save Valeterra from extinction, Valerie is sure the woman is insane. Valerie’s opinion changes, though, when she loses her livelihood. Sad and angry, she throws caution to the wind and embarks on a journey that she fears will either kill her or break her heart.

Jackson lost his first mate over 50 years ago. He knows his world is in peril. He knows his pack is on shaky ground, but all the alpha wants to do is wallow in his grief. When he discovers that his second mate is a human woman who is also immune to the virus sweeping Valeterra, he has some hard decisions to make. He doesn’t want a new mate. He also knows that he can’t deny his second chance at love and the first real chance his world might have at eventually recovering from so much death.

Great!

This story was built in a pretty cool world. A mirror image type world with everything being supernatural. I loved the concept and the plot to get her on the other "side". The main characters were also very interesting and had depth. I did get very frustrated with Jackson and thought the loophole was stretching it, but his alpha personality and hotness kept me rooting for him. Plus he was extremely attentive and thoughtful. The heroine talked about her size too much and I thought it was weird that the niece was in an orphanage but overall the story was entertaining and interesting. The narrator did a great job throughout the entire audiobook.
