Thanks for the review. It would be interesting to see how Melanie related to Jason. Teens and underage sex though not ideal for youngsters.

Though I may not read it as it is not my type.

Not sure I can jump in the middle of the Sonar series and follow the sexual relationship between an underage couple :( Thanks for the recommendation anyway!

Good storyline plus good character development. Sounds interesting! It's good this book can stand on its own.
Thanks for the review.

This is a great paranormal romance novel with an interesting protagonist. I enjoyed the book very much and I rated it 3 out of 4 stars. The onlinebookclub review of this book was inciteful and well written.

I'd be interested in knowing more about the paranormal aspect is in this tale about teenagers and high school romance. That's Jason's secret, I guess.

Paranormal Romance between teenagers sounds exciting, but it's the imminent danger that Melanie faces by hanging out with Jason that draws me to the book. I'm glad that it reads as a stand-alone. That averts the need to refer to the other books in the series.

Thanks for the great review. I do like teenage romances which involved paranormal abilities. I would like to learn more but I like to avoid these kind of teenage romances with premarital sex. Even though premarital sex is widely common in adult relationships. It is better to stop encouraging the young ones.

Good review. I'm not a fan of the romance genre but the combination of romance and the paranormal makes this an interesting read and gives me that push to want to read it. The advance warning about the sex scenes in the book is also welcome.

This sounds like an interesting novel, however, I do not normally read paranormal genres and I dislike romance as a rule. I like your balanced view of the book and I agree that it would be strange for a person not to be familiar, at least in part, with American culture.

Pretty on point review. Story seems familiar with other but I would like too see how it develops. I am not a big fan of romance books but the paranormal mix could be interesting. Intriguing. Congrats and thanks a lot for the free book opportunity.

This novel seems to take the turn of a love of necessity, where Jason just enticed Melanie to serve a purpose. It is really good to have an undying love. Literally. This is interesting, especially with its paranormal undercurrents. Thanks for your interesting review.

Melanie’s Evanescent Journey, is a paranormal romance novel that is part of a series. I'm not a big fan of romance novels, so I might not read this. However, this has some good ratings, and it might appeal to those who love the genre.
