I need to start this review with the statement that I’m not
a huge fan of Dystopian Romances. However, Being Amber has changed my mind!
OMG! The story that Sylvia Ryan has woven with this one story has made me
rethink this. I’m now eagerly looking forward to reading the rest of this
series. Unfortunately it’s still in the works! I don’t think she’ll be able to
write them fast enough for me.
On to the review…..
A pandemic has wiped out most of the US. The Government has
stepped in and created repopulation laws. As a part of that, you’re classified
and if needed, sterilized. Talk about having your choices made for you!
Jaci has been classified as an Amber and been sterilized.
She’s moved to the Amber Zone and has a whole new way of thinking and living to
adjust to. Xander is her roommate. He lives with her and takes care of her.
They fall for each other, but Xander won’t act on those
feelings. When Jaci finds out his lies of omission, she’s hurt, scared and she
runs.
Xander is definitely hot. He’s alpha-male, dominating and
takes control. Jaci is uncertain in her new world. She’s timid at first, which
is to be expected. But she develops her spine and stands up for herself. She
won’t be stepped on. I loved them both. They’re strong with moments of
weakness.
Xander likes to be in control and there are BDSM elements in
the story. Jaci is new to this but takes to it like a fish to water. I’m hoping
we see more of them in the later stories.
While this is a complete story in itself, there is a small
cliffhanger at the end. We have the beginning of a revolution. We know it
starts here but we don’t know where it goes or how it ends. However, the story
between Jaci and Xander is complete in itself.
I’m ready for the next book in the series and from my
understanding there’s more BDSM in it. Plus a set of hot twins! Yummy!
