I LOVE how this author has taken classic fairytales and turned them into something mind blowing and AMAZING!!!!

With Scarlet we have new characters introduced:
- Captain Thorne: And what a charming and sexy addition this uncontrollable flirt is. I just loved him :-D
- Scarlet: who is the retelling of Little Red Riding Hood. And she was just kick-ass.
- Wolf: who is 窶�wait for it窶� the wolf ;-). And damn did I not love him and Scarlet together.

We continue with Cinder on her journey of discovering who she really is, learning to control and use her new powers, saving Emperor Kai and Earth from evil Lunar Queen Levana. With her is her trusted and adorable side-kick android Iko, and now the flirty Captain Thorne, kick-ass Scarlet, and oh so sexy Wolf.

I really don窶冲 want to go into too much detail, because this book and series needs to be discovered and read on it窶冱 own. All I can say is: read this book. It will blow your mind, satisfy your imagination窶冱 cravings, and change the way you窶况e always thought about certain fairytales.

A HIGHLY recommended read.

Thorne was writhing and squirming in the cramped tunnel, swatting at his back and emitting an array of curses and unmanly shrieks. Sangfroid? I think not :-D"
