Still have an issue about the pteron origin, and the serious lack of trust from allie. Still continuing though. Xx ( )

A series that I have thoroughly enjoyed, I found this story typical and but an okay read.

Plot: I’ve been here before. After reading the first two books in the series, nothing much has change. There is still the power struggle, the drama with the unanswered questions and of course the uncertainty of Levi and Allie’s relationship. Half way through the book, things finally peaked up with a bit of different plot turns with character betrayals.

Love: Honestly, after Allie playing the “hard to get card/I’m going to college/Not getting married young” rant, I’m glad that she FINALLY chose something. I was getting a little frustrated with always holding Levi back. Now that both are on the same page, their relationship moves forward at a great pace that gave me some closure since the story was about to end. Though I wished, I could have basked in their romance a bit more. If you ask me, I felt like their relationship moved a little too fast in this story. It was like the author was trying to play catch up, getting them to FINALLY love each other and then BAM! FIGHT!

Secret Society: One thing I really enjoyed is getting to know more about Levi and his people. Allie is thrown into a world that has great history. I loved being in Allie’s shoes, learning every bit about these people. Allie herself, even learn more about why she is so drawn to Levi and his people. This part is very fun and entertaining.

Found is an okay reading that closes well. The fast-paced love along with a throwback to history, Found is good. ( )

Alyssa Rose Ivy is one of my favorite authors, and The Crescent Chronicles is one of my favorite paranormal series. I have anxiously been awaiting Found, book #3 in the series, and I have to tell you I don't think it could have been more perfect. I fell in love with Levi and his hot, swoon-worthy, and sexy self in book one of this series, and I just love his and Allie's story. Levi is part of a supernatural group called The Society, and in fact, is destined to be the king, following in line behind his father. Levi is a Pteron, which is a winged being, not an angel, but nonetheless very powerful. The story is set in New Orleans, where The Society is headquartered, with branches all over the country. Found picks up where Focus leaves off. Since they have met, Levi's enemies in the supernatural community, which consists of many different types of beings, have tried to stop Levi from becoming king and destroy his connection with Allie, who is his mate. Allie has also found out that her first boyfriend from back home, Toby, is a Pteron, and he is determined to have her back at any cost, to be his mate, thus destroying Levi's chance of becoming king and making himself king instead. Allie's best friend Jess, has been kidnapped by Toby's family, the Blackwells, and Allie is determined to get her back, but what will be the cost, and what is she willing to give up in order to see this happen?

Found had me captivated once again, from beginning to end. The story is told from Allie's point of view, and she and Levi have finally made headway in their relationship, and she has begun to accept who she is and discover just how much she loves Levi. The deeper she gets involved in The Society, however, the more secrets she begins to uncover. The secrets not only involve things Levi has kept from her, but things she begins to find out about herself, who she is, and what she is. We also get to see a whole new side of Levi in this story, a sweeter side, and I loved how completely devoted he was to Allie. He literally would do anything for her. He actually was so patient and kind to her, yet passionate and fiercely loyal and protective. We get to meet Levi's grandmother, Georgina, in this novel, who plays an integral role in helping Allie solve the mystery surrounding herself, the bond between her and Levi and the mystery surrounding it, and Allie's connection and affect on the Pterons. I loved seeing where Alyssa Rose Ivy took the romance and relationship between Levi and Allie in Found, and the story itself is action-packed and intense. The paranormal element of the story is creative, unique, and very interesting. We of course, get to see some of the original secondary characters who have been such a big part of the series, Owen, Hailey, and Jared, who I love, and I hear he is going to play a big role in a followup series that Alyssa Rose Ivy is writing, which will be centered in New York, and I am so excited about this. The ending could not have been more perfect. I loved, loved, loved it!! Alyssa Rose Ivy brought things together in a way that left me completely satisfied, smiling, and so very happy with the conclusion of this series. If you are a fan of paranormal romance, then The Crescent Chronicles is a must read series and I cannot recommend it enough. ( )
