Born at Midnight (Shadow Falls #1) by C.C. Hunter

Born at Midnight (Shadow Falls #1) - 4 Stars

Synopsis

Don’t miss this spectacular new series that will steal your heart and haunt your dreams, Welcome to Shadow Falls camp, nestled deep in the woods of a town called Fallen…

One night Kylie Galen finds herself at the wrong party, with the wrong people, and it changes her life forever. Her mother ships her off to Shadow Falls—a camp for troubled teens, and within hours of arriving, it becomes painfully clear that her fellow campers aren’t just “troubled.” Here at Shadow Falls, vampires, werewolves, shapeshifters, witches and fairies train side by side—learning to harness their powers, control their magic and live in the normal world.

Kylie’s never felt normal, but surely she doesn’t belong here with a bunch of paranormal freaks either. Or does she? They insist Kylie is one of them, and that she was brought here for a reason. As if life wasn’t complicated enough, enter Derek and Lucas. Derek’s a half-fae who’s determined to be her boyfriend, and Lucas is a smokin’ hot werewolf with whom Kylie shares a secret past. Both Derek and Lucas couldn’t be more different, but they both have a powerful hold on her heart.

Even though Kylie feels deeply uncertain about everything, one thing is becoming painfully clear—Shadow Falls is exactly where she belongs…
 


Review

This was an enjoyable read. True it was filled with classic YA tropes and a love triangle. But I enjoyed reading about the main character and the reason for her being at Shadow Falls camp. Kylie was interesting and reading her grow from a bratty teenager into a responsible one was nice. I loved Kylie’s friendships with the other camp mates including her cabin friends Della and Miranda. The triangle between Lucas, Kylie and Derek was not as cringing as I thought it may have been. The ending definitely makes me want to carry on to see what happens next at Shadow Falls
