Plot Summary: Sebastian is an incubus living in a fascinating world called Ephemera. This world is like ours... but shattered. People cannot travel easily from one place to another, instead crossing bridges that take them where they are meant to be, instead of where they necessarily want to go. Loved the world! Fascinating!

Main Characters: Sebastian: Sexy, alpha male until he meets heroine. Then he becomes... mush. Lynnea: I LOATHED her! When she was naive she was sooooo painfully naive and then she becomes all-knowing and completely domesticates Sebastian. Painful.

Best About This Book: The world, Ephemera is fascinating and so creative! The cover is beautiful.
Worst About This Book: The hero, and other demons in this book, are so weak and tame... here is an example: describing Lynnea's rage at Sebastian and another demon the author writes, "she...bounced." And for emphasis, this line is repeated. Her... bouncing, reduces the demons to quivering masses of fear. Her "bouncing" tantrum earns her respect and fear among all who witnessed it. 'Nuf said.

Summary: I wouldn't read it again. I would recommend it to those interested in a fascinating alternate reality, but not to those interested in romance.
