Review: Shattering Dawn by Jayne Ann Krentz

The conclusion to the lost night! This book answered the questions left lingering from the previous books. There are little Easter eggs peppered throughout this story from other series. I loved each of them as it brings back fond memories of the different paranormal worlds Ms. Krentz created over the years. This book can be read as a standalone. I recommend reading the start of the Lost Night Files to see the whole picture.

Amelia is the last of the three women who lost a night of her life as a lab rat. Too bad she cannot prove it. She is getting close as she now crosses paths with Gideon Sweetwater. SWEETWATER! Yes, I recognize this family name. I am tickled pink. I digress. Her initial interactions with Gideon are expected. They rub each other wrong and Amelia is made to feel like she's a lunatic. This is one of the standard ways Ms. Krentz has her protagonist meet. We are privy to both perspective so it is a humour read for me. Because it is a miscommunication but not from a contrived conflict. More of a Women are from Venus and Men are from Mars mismatch.


What I thoroughly enjoyed about this book is the twist and turns. We also finally learn what happened to the three women and why. We also learn about the mastermind behind this project. Or do we? Whilst I do say this is the conclusion, Ms. Krentz is a pro at leaving just a little door open to allow for more creative and fun stories to pop up. This Lost Night Trilogy is a lovely blend of psychic and suspense. The dash of unlikely romance is the cherry on top. Recommended for paranormal romance readers who enjoy amateur sleuths.
