My whole world changed when I stepped inside the academy. Nothing is right about this place or the other students in it. Here I am, a mere mortal among gods…or monsters. I still can’t decide which of these warring factions I belong to, if I belong at all. I only know the one thing that unites them is their hatred of me.

Then there’s Jaxon Vega. A vampire with deadly secrets who hasn’t felt anything for a hundred years. But there’s something about him that calls to me, something broken in him that somehow fits with what’s broken in me.
Which could spell death for us all.

Because Jaxon walled himself off for a reason. And now someone wants to wake a sleeping monster, and I’m wondering if I was brought here intentionally—as the bait.

Crave by Tracy Wolff is one of the most original and exciting books I have read in a while. I love that it is a young adult book that is supernatural. Spells, magic, and hormones equal big trouble, especially considering its a boarding school with a bunch of teenage supernatural creatures under one roof.

Will Grace find a new normal at this boarding school?

Grace

Grace is our point-of-view character. She is only seventeen years old and lost a lot in her short life. What she lost earlier, she gained the opportunity to be with a family that she hasn’t seen in a while. Grace is pretty smart even though it takes her a bit to get what is going on at the school. She ends up having a lot of fun, after what has been happening to her after she arrived.

What I like about her is that yes, she is only human, but she does try to fit in and figure out what is going on. She is an avid reader and loves to research the different magical creatures that she is going to school with, and boy, are there a lot of those to research.

Crave CRJaxon

Jaxon is Grace’s love interest in the story. He tries to only be with her in the shadows, but that isn’t working out for him. Seeing as how he is a vampire and Jaxon wants to spend more time with her even if doing that puts her into danger. Jaxon is a big mystery to Grace as she doesn’t get a lot about him. We only see Jaxon through Grace’s eyes, but he, along with the other side characters, have such prominent personalities that they show through when Grace is talking.

What I like about Jaxon is that he has a generous heart, and he wants to protect Grace even though he has no clue what the threat is on her life. He is a big softie, and I like how Grace can peel back his defenses to get to know the real him.

Crave FRFive Stars

Crave by Tracy Wolff is a book that I thoroughly engaged in while I was reading it. I loved it from the moment I saw the novel in the mail. I am giving this book a five-star rating and recommending it to anyone that reads young adult. It was a fantastic book, and I can’t wait for the next one to come out.

A special thank you to Entangled: Teen and Megan Beatie Communications for the opportunity to review this fabulous book.

About Tracy Wolff

Tracy Wolff

New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Tracy Wolff wrote her first short story—something with a rainbow and a prince—in second grade, around the same time she forayed into the wonderful world of girls lit with her first Judy Blume novel. By ten she’d read everything in the young adult and classics sections of her local bookstore, so in desperation her mom started her on romance novels. And from the first page of the first book, Tracy knew she’d found her life-long love. A one-time English professor with over fifty novels to her name, she now devotes most of her time to writing romance and dreaming up heroes. She lives in Austin, Texas, with her family.
