Book Synopsis

“No secret stays hidden forever.”

Still grieving from their loss in the Far East, Giovanni Vecchio and Beatrice De Novo discover that all roads lead to Rome for them. But nothing is quite as it seems in the Eternal City. Joined by Carwyn and Tenzin, unexpected clashes greet them almost immediately, and rivalries churn beneath the glittering facade of the old Roman court. They quickly realize that allies might be enemies, and ancient rivals could hold the key to a deadly secret.

Giovanni and Beatrice will be forced to call on old alliances, ancient power, and fierce cunning to survive for the eternity they desire. Sometimes, finding the end means going back to the beginning. In the conclusion of the Elemental Mysteries, fire, earth, wind, and water finally meet with devastating results.

The Hook

I’m eager to dive into the next installment of The Elemental Series, "The Fall of Water" by Elizabeth Hunter. Though I still have some reservations about the story, it’s starting to develop into a decent read. You can see the author’s growth through the books as she continues to refine her storytelling and character development. From the first book, I was hesitant to read the rest of the series, but I stuck with it like a good blogger. I’m glad I did because the last book was quite good, even though I was upset that Beatrice’s father was killed off before he barely got a spotlight.

I hope to see more of Tenzin’s character development in this book. She’s an intriguing character, and I love her badass, powerhouse persona. Female warriors always capture my heart, and Tenzin is no exception. Additionally, Ben continues to be a standout for me. His character’s sarcasm, innocence, and childlike demeanor make him a delight to read. He’s got this perfect blend of deviousness and trickery that adds a unique flavor to the story. I can already tell he’s going to remain my favorite character throughout all of the books.

Elizabeth Hunter has shown significant maturity in her writing, and it’s been fascinating to witness her evolution as an author. Although the series had a rocky start for me, it’s improved, and I’m genuinely looking forward to seeing where "The Fall of Water" takes the story next. The balance of action, character development, and emotional depth are promising, and I’m excited to jump into this next chapter of The Elemental Series.

I'm so glad I stuck with Elizabeth Hunter's Elemental Series because "A Fall of Water" was a pretty good read, much like the previous book. Elizabeth Hunter's writing has evolved immensely. After the first book, I hesitated to continue with the series, which initially put me off. But being a trooper regarding the series, I decided to push through and read the rest. I'm glad I did because the story has proven worth it. This book was packed with action and adventure and even included romance. The overall story has evolved significantly from the first and second books. The villains have become more complex, the character descriptions are more vivid, and everything has taken on a new depth. I appreciate how the author has grown with these books.

"A Fall of Water" truly showcases Beatrice's power as a vampire. Much like the author, Beatrice has evolved and matured beautifully throughout the series. Her development is compelling, and seeing her become her own is satisfying. On the other hand, I can't help but feel bad for Giovanni in this book. He's gone through so much, and there's even more ahead for him (for those interested, check out the spoilers below). His journey has been arduous, and his character has faced some tough trials.

If you stick with the series, even though the first two books might have been a bit off-putting, the reward is well worth it. The story deepens, the characters become richer, and the excitement ramps up. Elizabeth Hunter's growth as an author is evident, making each book better than the last. Let's move on to the next one and see where this incredible journey takes us!

Book Spoilers

Disclaimer: This section might contain Spoilers about the book because, as we read the books we try to provide readers with information that might catch them off guard and/or trigger them to in one way or another. This is the main reason for this blog was created.

One of the good things about Elizabeth Hunter's books is that there are not many triggering events throughout her stories. As Elizabeth Hunter evolves with her writing, so do her abilities to appropriately discuss sensitive topics without overly detailing or graphically explaining them. This book is suitable for teens 15 and older, maybe even 13-year-olds, though you must be mindful of a little adult language throughout the story.

Spoiler Alert:

Okay, so let's get down to the nitty-gritty of this book. The introduction of Liv was an intelligent step in the author's growth and the potential for the story. She was a perfect villain, and her powers were terrific compared to Beatrice's, especially with their duality involving water. The action scene where they take on Liv at the end to kill her is probably the best part of the entire book.

Let's talk about Ben. Ben is my favorite character in the series. He's witty, sarcastic, and a powerhouse for being a human. When he takes on those two men who attack him and Dez towards the middle of the book, he defends them by killing one, and the other one is so scared he runs away. I thought that was awesome. And then Tenzin tracks down the other guy that attacked them and kills him just for attacking her friends. This action solidifies Tenzin as my other favorite character in the book.

Now, Giovanni. I felt terrible for him in this book because of Liv's apparent obsession with killing him. When she had him in her dungeon, she constantly went down there to attack him and stab him. It was almost like he was her own personal punching bag, and her rage was utterly unprecedented. I was so glad when they broke him out of jail and hid him away so Liv couldn't touch him anymore. I'm happy that Giovanni was the one who killed her at the end of the book because she deserved some severe payback for taking advantage of him being defenseless in her dungeon.

But that's enough spoiler alerts on the book. Shoot us a message in the chat below and let us know what you think about "A Fall of Water" by Elizabeth Hunter from the Elemental Series.
