The Soul Mate The Holy Trinity Book 1 eBook Madeline Sheehan

So there were some good things and some bad things about this book.
I'll start with the good. The heroine does develop some. She seems fairly human in her reactions. By that I mean she doesn't face danger but not fear, or kill 50 men with a paperclip, or stay perfectly level headed 24/7. The general idea behind the story is neat. It's something I haven't seen combined like this. The editing seems to be very well done(I know nothing of true gypsy life or language so can't comment on accuracy). No spelling or grammatical issues that I noticed.
The bad is unfortunately more plentiful. First the writing style is not my favorite. Some situations or reactions seemed odd to me. What I absolutely hated about this book: the way the men were looked at vs how the women were looked at. The "hero" could screw anyone with legs, but the "heroine/gift"(what is she? A tie or a ring?) has a magical chasity belt. Where's his pain from kissing anyone else? Soulmate....I think not. No one batted an eye at him sleeping with a girl knowing the full story but treated the females like whores. They throw people out of families for getting pregnant before marriage yet no one cares that the supposed soulmate is screwing psycho next door? And the "heroine" should just suck it up and deal with it? Yeah...I don't think so. Men can't be manly men and just being boys while women are sluts and whores. Take one man and one woman sleeping together- he's just being a man- she's a whore. How does that even begin to make sense? Anyway, so it's the end of the world pretty much, death is only a magical barrier away and everyone is oversexed in this book. I guess you'd want to live as much as possible when death is knocking but come on. Everything doesn't have to be an innuendo. But most of all the whole "I need you(not love, need), excuse me while I have sex darn near in public with someone else" thing just bothered me. That and his extreme jealousy. "Don't touch his hair, I'm off to bang my ex girlfriend". Sounds like a winner.

The Soul Mate The Holy Trinity Book 1 eBook Madeline Sheehan Reviews

I first read The Soul Mate last summer, and I only purchased it because it was highly recommended by members in one of my reading groups. I wasn't a big fan of paranormal, fantasy, or post-apocalyptic books, so I shouldn't have liked this book because it contains all those ingredients, so someone please explain how I ended up loving this book. I was hooked within a few pages, and then I wanted someone to slap me for not reading this book sooner. I devoured this book like a Skin Eater stranded on an island with super models, I couldn't get enough. The Soul Mate is the first book in The Holy Trinity series; the story is full of magic, history, skin eating beings, and romance. The modern day story takes place after most of the human race is eradicated by creatures called Skin Eaters, a cross between vampires and zombies. The story follows a clan of Gypsies settled in the Catskills region; they are the only people that appear to fend off the Skin Eaters. Unknown to the non-gypsy (Gaje) population, Gypsies have been dabbling in white magic for centuries, but kept the secret heavily guarded from the rest of the world. Inside the Gypsy clan is a recently rescued Gaje (non-gypsy) female, Trinity. New to the Gypsy way of life and magic, Trinity soon finds that her path was destined to cross with that of the clan's most powerful, Gerik. However Trinity, not being informed of the importance of her predestined future with Gerik, turns around and falls in love with bad boy Gypsy, Xan. If a love triangle isn't bad enough, Trinity finds out that not only was she supposed to be with Gerik, but that she was born to be his soul mate. The romance isn't sappy, it's mostly about predestination vs. free will, and it contains angst, bitterness, and more broken hope than a country music album. Although this story contains a love triangle, I don't classify the book as romance, rather a paranormal/fantasy, post-apocalyptic book containing romance.

As I mentioned in the beginning of my review, I read this book nearly a year ago, but recently re-read the book during a discussion with other fans of this series. Re-reading this book has opened my eyes to passages or comments that I overlooked during the first reading. Situations that I thought I understood, I looked at them differently after the second read. This book definitely needs to be read more than once, but I have to admit that I was more than glad to read this story again. The story involves several characters, so it easy to overlook a pertinent piece of information. What separates this book from most other books is the writing style of the author. The author doesn't lead the reader down a particular path; she lets the readers choose the path. Ms. Sheehan throws in history and hints, so as the reader is going down one path, if you will take notice, you may find yourself deciding to go down another path. Madeline Sheehan, you opened me up to a new genre. I opened this book so that I could prove to my book club friends that I wouldn't like it, but in the process fell in love with The Holy Trinity series and a love for a different genre.
