Triad (Brittany Weisrock) - ARC Review

Updated: Sep 22, 2021


Author: Brittany Weisrock

Title: Triad

Series: There will be a sequel

Release Date: April 6, 2021

Genre: Paranormal Romance

Star Rating: 5/5

Age/Trigger Warnings: 18+ for sex scenes. Family member's death (emotional grieving scenes, not a graphic death scene).

Spice Review: 4.5/5 - Multiple spicy scenes but not completely detailed. Intense passionate feelings throughout the book.

Storyline Review: The storyline was amazing. I felt like the story was "long" because of how much content, world & character building, was provided, not because of the page count. I took my time reading the book and I'm glad I did. It allowed me to savor the story in portions. I basically went on an emotional roller coaster ride, feeling the characters emotions and relationships building over time. The feelings of neutral, intense attraction, frustration, grief, passion… It's all there and captivating.

Without giving away too much information, this story is about Thea (Athena), who is one of the triplets known as the "Triad", shifters with powers that was prophesied about. Her brothers are Anders & Atlas and have prominent parts in this book. Thea is a female Alpha and has to go through scrutiny from people around her, even though most are supportive of her leadership and strength. Since they're shifters, they have more than a family bond, they share emotions and thoughts and it made the story more intense. Kale (Kalen) is the love interest introduced and you immediately feel the confusion and attraction since he's Thea's mate, but a human. Kale, Anders & Atlas all have the mindset that Thea is capable of handling herself and they will not force their thoughts or actions upon her. Kale is respectful of her boundaries, eager to learn more about this new life and his mate. The villain is Xercarus, an evil demon that is creating a horde. While he doesn't have an active part in the dialogue, he is mentioned often and a lot of events take place because of him. Lincoln is a newly turned teenage vampire and Thea and family basically adopted him. Colin is an old vampire and has an amazing transformation story. His story has missing pieces from memory loss and I really hope to find out more about his character and his connection to Thea in the sequel. Unfortunately, this story ends on a cliffhanger but should not be avoided because of that. There will be a sequel.

Character Review: Included in ^^^ StoryLine Review ^^^

Writing Review: Well written. No noticeable errors in grammar, spelling, punctuation, etc. The characters were written and connected really well. There was no confusion about "who is this character" because all of them were written with details about appearance, relationship connection and powers. I can appreciate how the author noted physical attributes/actions during the dialog, as it helped remind me of who the character is and gave them more of a relatable quality.

Additional Notes: If you want to read a book that makes you feel things emotionally, this is it. Intrigue, drama, suspense and passion all wrapped up in a paranormal romance package. Eagerly waiting for the sequel because I need to know things!!!
