{eARC Minute Review} Altered by Marnee Blake

Altered

Altered by

A new adult romance from Entangled's Embrace imprint...

When "normal" ends, survival begins...

The sickness came on suddenly and violently. When it was done, waitress Blue Michaels was different in a really strange way. And the entire town of Glory was dead...except for her.

Only that's not exactly true. A handful of people made it, including U.S. Army Specialist Seth Campbell, who was caught in the wrong town at the worst time. He's fierce and protective, and way too good-looking. As much as they need a leader—as much as Blue wants to trust him—there are too many questions and not enough time for answers. Now they are hunted. But what their pursuers don't know is each of them has strange new powers. And they'll use their "gifts" to survive...no matter who stands in their way.

{Review}

Really enjoyed this one. The plot caught my attention from the beginning, the characters were believable and relatable and the pacing had a great mix of action and exposition.

I liked the two main characters, Blue and Seth, together and as individuals. They're both strong and determined and want to protect others. The romance is there but it's more of a way to heighten tension than a huge plot point, which I liked.

The ending is a bit of a cliffhanger - characters in peril, lots of unanswered questions - and will leave you waiting for the next installment.
