I had some hope for her in the last book, but her true nature has shown again. Too bad Cami's brother is fooled by the "grandma" act. We also get to see the backlash Zeus unleashed on the lost herd. We get more mythology, which I love. We even get a new species that is really cool! The idea behind this world is so unusual and intriguing, I love seeing it unfold.
I didn't want the book to end and need to know what happens with the council! I can't wait for book four! This is an advanced copy review. Apr 30, Susan rated it it was amazing. I was given an advance copy for review. I expected nothing less.
Never miss a deal!
Couldn't and wouldn't put it down! Drake and Cam Camile are destined, pre-determined, fated -- whatever - made for each other! Cam is a strong force to tend with - Love a strong woman! Drake made the ultimate sacrifice to protect his love.
Sigh She stands by her man Centaur? They make some new friends, find some help along the way, and It's too bad her family is "illegal" as far as the Centaur Council is concerned! There's Grandma with a thirst for power, and twin brother too gulible to believe. Not to mention the Council soldiers! Who can they trust? May 02, Kayla Hough rated it it was amazing Shelves: I literally couldn't put this book down. Your so wrapped up in it from start to finish! I can't wait for the next book! You can't go wrong picking up any of her books to read!
Apr 29, Maghon Thomas rated it it was amazing Shelves: A completely awesome, kick ass heroine, who has one of the most impressive attitudes. I will get to that in a moment. I mean, Drake, Daniel, Gage, the 5 Brothers… seriously, gimme some love here boys! The world building of how the Centaurs and their laws and loop holes are fascinating to me.
Though I know there will be 5 books hence my 5 reasons , I finally get something I wanted since the beginning- no I will not go telling you what that is because you need to read this series on you own I am extremely proud of Camille and her character growth. She is way more cautious than she used to be, and though she is scared, she is not backing down.
She finds some unlikely allies, and she also makes Drake not be so… depressing- for lack of a better word. Her determination to make the world a better place for centaurs has completely impressed me. I am reaaaaally hoping he gets then ending I hope he gets.
Author Nancy Straight: Touched Series (Centaur Series)
I actually wanna dislike him. He makes me mad a lot, and then he does something so nice, and some comforting, and damnit, I love him again. As for the other brothers, I am very much hoping to see more. There was so much action.
And I am very much in happiness with the humor that strikes in every once in a while. And the drama, I mean I am seriously hoping that mama Z dies a really terribly, torturous, mean death, which will fit her. Dear Ms Nancy, hear my plea on that one. And to the new characters, Jessica and Katherine. Jess is the coolest kid. I really like her, but I swear, if she goes back to her crazy family, I will personally jump into the book and kick her ass myself! As for her character, I absolutely love her attitude.
And Katherine… She is a whole new creature which is soooo cool. Let me talk about the writing for just a minute. Think if you were a complete chocolate addict, and someone gave you a room full of every chocolate know to man…. You will never leave this room, it has everything you could ever want. I am completely invested in every single character. I have fallen in love with the two main characters, and I have grown to hate the bad guys-and ladies- and I am completely engrossed in what will happen.
I have a few moments to wait. Yep, this is one of those rare 6 PAW moments. You make such pretty words. And of both of her series, this one is my favorite. I knew very little about the book in its entirety, but I did have a teensy inkling that a certain character whose name I may or may not share I totally do was go Oh, Nancy Straight.
I knew very little about the book in its entirety, but I did have a teensy inkling that a certain character whose name I may or may not share I totally do was going to come into play in this book. I had to wait until school was out. And I enjoyed it so much! There are A LOT of characters in these books. So I'm not going to list them bolded, I'm just going to comment on them as it comes to me and bold as I go. First of all, Cami. I still think that if she and I were to meet in real life, we'd be friends.
I love his protectiveness, but really didn't like his insecurity. Made me want to slap him. I just love him. He is so sweet, I will never get over it! It is so insanely cool that there is a character names after me. She was sort of awesome, too! This book certainly got off to a great start. Then things got going, and Nancy Straight writes so well.
The story just kept going all the way until it was time for me to pout and go back to waiting for more Daniel.

He's my favorite part of these books! We learn a lot in this book, and There are so many couples! It's super cute and makes me happy when there is a certain boy whose name starts with a D and ends with an aniel is involved but I have to admit, it was Then again, it's nice to see the happiness amidst the chaos of their situation. My dearest Nancy Straight. You know I heart you, but why must you make me wait so much for more Daniel? He is my boy! It made me super happy as I was reading it and definitely left me wanting more once it was finished.

Now I wait for book 4! You can find more from me on my blog: Nov 11, Michelle rated it it was amazing Shelves: This is such a great series. Fans of paranormal need to read these books. Heck, even people that feel burned out on paranormal books need to read the touched series. Centaur Rivalry picks up right where Centaur Legacy left off. This book had my emotions all over the place. I was excited, I was mad, I was confused when Cami was. Nancy Straight is such a fantastic writer.
She has created such a vibrant and fascinating world using a mixture of paranormal and mythology. And in the t This is such a great series. And in the third book we are introduced to another paranormal creature. All of the books in the Touched series are told from multiple points of view, but it never feels overwhelming. Actually, it is a great way for us to get to know a lot of the secondary characters as well as the main characters.
I really connected with Nancy's writing style. She switched between the points of views seemlessly. She makes telling a great story seem effortless. Cami is so loyal. I think that is what I like most about her. Brent, one of her half brothers, said something interesting in this book that I loved.
He said that everyone was instantly drawn to Cami because she has no problem questioning authority and traditions if she thinks they are stupid. She is strong and independent. And even though it may seem frustrating sometimes, she is like a breath of fresh air to the centaurs that surround her. You just can't help but love her.
And she never gives up on Drake. I think that is really admirable. I love the two of them together. We get to know some new characters in this book and we get to see more of Cami's twin, Cameron. Zandra frustrated me to no end! I can't stand that lady! The way she spins everything makes me sick. But there is a lot going on in this story. The stories start out all over the place, but eventually everything comes together. I could not put this book down. I needed to see what was going to happen next. I also love that each of Cami's half brothers has his own mini storyline woven into the overall bigger story.
Last book we got to see Beau meet Lacey and in this book it is Brent's turn. I ended up liking Brent more than I thought I would. At first glance he seems to be kind of arrogant, but there is more to him than meets the eye. The touched series is paranormal at it's finest! With so many young adult and new adult books out there, sometimes it is hard to separate the really great ones from the average good ones.
Take my word for it, this is one of the really great ones! I can't wait for the fourth book! Especially because of that cliffhanger May 01, Courtney Robichaux rated it it was amazing. They really needed true friends around them during this trying time. Cami and Drake have been through so much already and this book is no exception. Cami held them together with hope and love. Even if only for a few days on the island, they were at peace with the world and with each other.
Their relationship is just magical and so much fun to read and experience. Completely captivating from beginning to end! This book even had a few new characters but because of my experience with Phineas and Zandra, I was very skeptical of Katherine and Jessica. Katherine is so mysterious and a different species! She and Brent have quite a journey ahead of them. He loves Cami so much that he took a big chance with Drake that could have got him killed.
The airport scene with Daniel and Cami had my heart breaking but by the end of this book, I could feel Daniel coming to terms with their relationship. This book was FULL of action! Battles with centaur enforcers, a beautiful wedding, someone gets lost in the jungle… I was always on the edge of my seat. I can only imagine how intense it will be once they finally make it to Centauride. I am addicted to this series and cannot wait for the next book. Apr 10, Kelli rated it it was amazing Shelves: As I'm looking back, I realize that not a ton actually happened in this book action-wise but that it was such a compelling read that I couldn't put it down regardless.
This book picks right up where the Centaur Legacy left off. Drake is a full-on centaur Is it weird that I think that's hot? Not that you can do much with a guy that's half horse, but the fact that he's really tall and muscular and pretty much spends all of his time shirtless is pretty sexy.
Oh As I'm looking back, I realize that not a ton actually happened in this book action-wise but that it was such a compelling read that I couldn't put it down regardless. Oh yeah, so Cami and Drake are hiding out and the book starts with Bianca and Gage finding them. They spend some time in this podunk little town in South Dakota, meet some cool new people and see some old familiar faces, and I don't want to say a whole lot because I don't want to spoil anything. I love the main characters: Cami, Drake, Bianca and Gage.
We also met some other new characters who were awesome and made some interesting connections with the people we already knew. I still don't know how I feel about Brent. Sometimes he can be really cool but then others he is really annoying and holier-than-thou.
