Review: Dangerous by Alycia Linwood

Dangerous by Alycia Linwood

My Rating: 4 of 5

Synopsis:

Eighteen-year-old Ria, a fire elemental and privileged student at the University of Magic, thinks nothing can get in the way of her happiness. Even when she falls for Michael, a boy whose element is different from hers, she is determined to make their forbidden romance work.

But when she starts experiencing the symptoms of magic disease that could rob her of her element, turn her into a cold-blooded killer, and shatter her life, all of her beliefs are put to the test. The only one who might be able to help her is Adrian, a mysterious, charming, and dangerous magic disease carrier, who also happens to be her least favorite person in the world.

In this book, their god has given everyone an elemental power of earth, air, fire or water. The only requirement is that they choose a mate with the same elemental power and do not mix powers. Of course, there are always people who follow their own rules and powers were mixed. 

Of course, the people in charge have to spin this to keep control of things and claim that some people have caught a disease. They claim that the disease is spread thru sex and that they lose their elemental powers. Effective way to spread fear, correct? 

Ria, Adrian, Paula and Michael are learning that some things they think they know are not as they appear. 

My Thoughts:

There is just something about this story line that really caught my attention. I couldn't put it down. Of course, the cliffhanger has left me wanting to go out and find book 2 right now. There are some grammatical errors with were a tad bit annoying but once you get past those, the book is really good.
