This is a story that has some sci-fi, some action, and some romance. Fall did a great job of pulling everything together and making it work. I truly loved the Saviors! They were big and sexy as well as loyal and fierce. You instantly feel a connection with them and want to know what happens. I felt as if the storyline could have been more geared to the adult aspect but that did not hurt the story any. It does not leave you hanging at the end although it is the first book in a series. It is also a book that would let you be okay with reading just one and that is not necessarily good for a series! I am interested in reading the next book because I enjoyed this one so much. Recommended. OK, first let's talk about this cover. Yum-me. I could take a slice of that cake.Second, let's talk about my love-fest. Yes. Love. Fest. There is *so* much to love about this book. The voice is magnificent. This author gets you to that level of emotion that is so missing from many books. From the first page, you are right inside Noah's head. And I mean right inside. The writing is so natural, you really think it's him talking to you, telling a story.Abby is also a great character. So well drawn and believable. The author takes time with her emotions and thoughts, building up believable reactions to everything thrown at her. And there's this one scene where Abby's in danger, OMG, I was on the edge of my seat!The ensemble cast is dee-lish-us. All these savior dudes are hunka hunka burning love-fests. It's an orgy of beefcake. Not that I've ever partaken in an orgy (or have I? LOL ), but if I were to partake, I'd partake with these guys. Not since the Lords Of the Underworld series have I met a more delightful cast of swoon-worthy characters.So, what drew this rating down from a 5 star review?1. Lots of grammatical errors. Onesies or twosies I'll deal with. It was almost as if this author was writing so fast to get the words out, she missed some stuff. Hell, if I were writing this book, I'd be writing fast too!2. The wrap up left a lot being desired. OK, so we have this situation where things aren't looking good, and the answer to fix it all is love. Got it. But then, we skip ahead when it's all said and done, and I was like, WFT? *HOW* did they fix it? It was like the author took a short-cut, or didn't know how this fixin' truly worked, so she glossed over it instead of writing about it. I felt a little cheated, like she'd short-sheeted my bed.3. I'm jealous I didn't write it. OK, that one doesn't really count, and had no impact on my rating. Just saying.Seriously, if you like PNR romance, read this book. I'm continuing with the series, and adding it my Series to Keep Reading list.
What do You think about The Light Within Me (2000)?
A typical if unremarkable PNR that will appeal to fans of Jacquelyn Frank or Alyssa Day.

got it for free...trying to decide if I want to pay for the others in the series.
