Gravity (Mageri #4) by Dannika Dark

  

When a choice is made, it will forever alter the course of our destiny. It cannot be undone, for fate is a river changing direction and carving away the bed of our hearts like everlasting fractures.

A difficult past has left Silver broken, but she is learning to trust again through Logan Cross, a Chitah who has convinced her that a dangerous man can change. Their conviction for each other will be put to the ultimate test when an old nemesis reappears and flips her world upside down. Will Logan be able to tame the animal within, or will he succumb to his impulsive nature?

The ongoing investigation into Breed experiments unveils a shocking secret about Silver’s past. Standing at a fork in the road, Silver is forced to make a decision. Each comes with consequence, and there is no turning back.

My review

Sigh....yeah, that's pretty much sums it up for me every time I finish one of Ms. Dark's novels. It's a sigh of contentment coupled with the disappointment that my reading pleasure has ceased, and thus will have to patiently wait for the next installment in the Mageri series. Which, to my understanding will be the final book in the series. It's all a very bitter-sweet symphony when I think about that time coming to pass. So I try not to anticipate nor dwell.

Well enough about all my literary drama and lets get on with all the juicy deets regarding Gravity.  I will try and leave out any spoilers cause that's how I roll when I write a review. Gravity picks up right about where Impulse ended.  Logan and Silver are courting, Silver is now working for Halo and without fail, she is still a magnet for trouble. Adam is a hot mess, Justus is beginning to show signs that he may in fact have a soul, Simon is, well, Simon and the introduction of characters, Page and Christian play more prominent rolls in this book.

Oh, Lordy I can't fan girl enough about Ms. Dark. She is one of my favorite Authors and her Mageri series is by far one of the most creative Urban Fantasy's I've had the pleasure of reading. Girlfriend knows how to throw down a fantastic novel. She is truly a heavy weight when it comes to style, prose and whit. Her writing has gravitas (forgive the pun) and I dare anyone to say otherwise! Well, she defiantly delivers another winner in the fourth installment of this series. So much so I cried. Yeah, that's right, I wept like a baby. Not only once but two times!!! Seriously, if tears flow from these eyes while reading a book that means I have become totally invested in the characters. Which also means you have to be one heck of a writer to grab me and make me want to care about your characters. And that is exactly what Danni does every time. 

Geez, do you think she'll mind that I called her Danni?

I suppose if I had to get all kinds of nit-picky I'd say I thought there were some character inconsistencies.  Logan and Silver's friends respond to a pivotal event in the book that left me scratching my head, thinking, "nah they wouldn't just let that one go would they?" But oh yes friends, let it go they did. That was a little hard for me to digest. This didn't sour me on the book per se, but I wasn't buying it either. But hey, don't worry I'm still a fan and still heart the series.

But seriously folks, if you are a reader of Urban Fantasy and have yet to pick-up one of Dannika Dark's works then I don't know what sort of rock you have been living under because she is starting to blow-up the genre. And the buzz around her is nothing but positive.

I give Gravity by Dannika Dark 4.75 stars.
