Reviewing: Retribution

Retribution
By: Amy Rachel Thompson

What It's About!

Regan Edison has just moved from California, to enter her first year at Georgia Liberty College, the place where jacked up Chevy trucks and hunting are a way of life. Regan hopes to start a new life for herself and she thinks that Georgia is just the place to do it. That is until she meets an unexpected stranger.

Colter Hayes is a member of the Collectors, a group of wrongfully punished lost souls. Colter and the rest of his team, Finn, Kaiden and Devon, work for the Requiem Council who pass judgment on those souls that are neither tagged for Heaven nor Hell. The Council has charged the Collectors with finding the lost in exchange for a chance at redemption.

When an ex-councilmember known to pass Retribution on lost souls sets his sights on Regan, the Requiem Council dispatches the Collectors to Georgia to work as protectors for Regan. The Collectors must fight to save Regan from a fate they know all too well, but can they work to earn back their chance at redemption or are their fates sealed forever?

Who is meant for Heaven?
Who is meant for Hell?
And who is just lost?



My Thoughts!

I received this book through Net Galley in turn for an honest review.

I struggled with this read. I didn't respect Regan. She seemed really immature and annoying. She was helpless. I get the paranormal thing is new for her and ,at first would be hard to accept, but shutting the guys out and constantly undermining them. Putting herself ,as well as them in danger all the time, was nerve wracking. The lost souls, Agro, and the council idea was really far fetched. My attention was lost just getting the concept of the story line. 

I think this book had some really promising ideas, but too much shoved all at once. Just not my thing.
