Where the Lights Lead by L.H. Blake

5.0

Where the Lights Lead is the first book in a fantasy romance/supernatural series by author L.H. Blake.

The story is dual POV following our two main characters, Will and Ellora, 20 somethings who work together at a local pub. Both Will and Ellora suddenly start to develop strange powers and find themselves being stalked by a mysterious figure. Together they will have to work together to uncover the truth about themselves, their powers and their future.

If you love steamy romance stories with fantasy/supernatural elements then you will love this charming and fun-filled book. The first half is a little slow as we are learning about our characters, however it really starts to pick up about the mid-point, throwing twist after twist leaving you wanting more. Being the first book in a series, be warned this one does end on a cliffhanger.
The relationship between the two main characters is fantastic and I loved learning alongside them about their new powers and abilities. The first half kind of had a superhero vibe about it, but the later half felt more fantasy/supernatural.

One thing I really enjoyed about this story was the authors focus on consent in the romantic scenes. This was very well done without taking away from the steaminess of the scenes.
If you love boy-falls-first, scorching romance and fun-filled action then do yourself a favor and pick up this book. I’d highly recommend and am looking forward to reading book 2 when it comes out.

Thank you to the author and publisher for an advanced copy.
