Review: Veiled By Desire

Veiled By Desire by Candace Robinson
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Veiled By Desire is the second book in Candace Robinson’s Laith series. Although this is the second book in the series, it is more of a companion novel than a sequel. There are elements and references that will be better understood if you have read Clouded By Envy, but you do not need to have read it to understand this story. The story within Veiled By Desire works perfectly fine without any prior knowledge.

With Veiled By Desire, Candace Robinson demonstrates her ability to weave many well-loved elements into a single story. Such is always the case with the author’s work, and this time in no different. The difference, however, is in the elements we get to enjoy. Not only do we get to see more of the creatures of Laith that we found out some details about in the first book, but we also get introduced to knew elements that add twists to beloved stories. After all, I never expected to experience a story in which mermaids and werewolves were interwoven in such a wonderful way.

It’s more than just a story that combines beloved fantasy elements and creates something new, it’s also a tale that hooks you and has you desperate to see how everything plays out. You’re sucked right in and find yourself rooting for the characters, hoping for their happy endings, feeling all they feel throughout. With each new element that is introduced, you’re hooked deeper, and before you know what’s happened you’ve finished the book and are in need of more.

Without a doubt, I cannot wait to get my hands on the third book to see what more Candace Robinson is going to add to this world.
