Fresh Fiction Review

ETERNAL
C.C. Hunter

Reviewed by Debbie Wiley
Posted October 25, 2014

Young Adult Paranormal

Della Tsang is adjusting to life as a Reborn, a rare second transition that occurs for some vampires and gives them enhanced abilities. Her newly obtained bond with Chase is impacting her relationship with her boyfriend, Steve. Meanwhile, Della is more determined than ever to prove herself a capable investigator for FRU (Fallen Research Unit), a specialized FBI unit in charge of the supernatural community. A ghostly presence is haunting Della, leading her headlong into a case that may have personal implications for her. What will Della do when everything she knows about her life turns upside down?

ETERNAL is the second book in the Shadow Falls: After Dark trilogy. While it can be read as a standalone, the development of the story arcs and relationships make it a book best appreciated in the context of the series as a whole. The trilogy is loosely connected to C.C. Hunter's original Shadow Falls series as well but it is not necessary to have read the prior series as the story arcs are new for this trilogy.

The relationships start to get quite complicated in ETERNAL! Not only do we have the love triangle between Della, Steve, and Chase, but we have added complications involving Della's relationship with her parents as well as those of Della's friends. Never mind the ghostly presence of Natasha and her relationship with Liam that confuses things quite a bit for Della and Chase. And Chase... if you haven't read Chase's story in Unbreakable, stop what you are doing and read it first as it adds so much insight into Chase's character and enhances the emotional impact of ETERNAL.

ETERNAL is yet another spectacular book by the very talented C.C. Hunter. C.C. Hunter once again demonstrates that she is a master at creating emotionally charged situations, particularly as ETERNAL leaves us with one heck of a cliffhanger! ETERNAL and the Shadow Falls: After Dark series have it all- superb world building, exceptional character development, and a plot line that leaves you desperate for the next book in the series right now! ETERNAL is easily recommended.

SUMMARY

Just when Della feels like she’s starting to figure out
her
life, she finds herself reborn…and her new existence comes
with a whole different rulebook.

Della's secret powers always made her feel like an
outsider
in the human world. Now, just when she’s starting to feel
like she belongsβ€”at Shadow Falls, a camp for teens with
paranormal powersβ€”her life is turned upside down all over
again. Attacked by a deadly virus, she must make the
difficult choice to be reborn. It’s her only chance at
survival, but it comes with a price: It irreparably bonds
her to Chase, a tall, dark and mesmerizing vampire who
makes
her laugh one minute and infuriates her the next.

Chase already knows too many of Della’s secrets, and being
eternally bonded to him is the last thing she wants. Even
worse, she doesn’t fully understand what their bond means.
Is the attraction she’s started feeling for Chase realβ€”or
does fate have something else in store? And what does that
mean for Steve, the hot shapeshifter whose kisses make her
weak in the knees? Now Della’s battered heart is about to
take another hit. While investigating her latest case, she
discovers shocking evidence about her father’s dark past,
making her question everything she believes to be true…and
her place in the world she loves.
