Dark C.A.R.M.A. Tour --- Review of EXILED

Book Summary

Stubborn, sixteen-year-old Princess Venus of Kelari wants one thing, to become a kelvieri, that is, until someone exiles her to Earth, kills her irrihunter and takes her family.

Now she wants revenge.

First she’s got to get home. But before she can return to Kelari, the Gods have commanded her to help an arrogant boy named Michael find his soul mate. Only she doesn't know the first thing about love.

Rather quickly, her inexperience with human emotion is obscured by other matters—alien-controlled psychotic teens that are out to kill her, and a government group that is set on capturing and dissecting her.

Worst of all, Venus will suffer a painful death-by-poisoning, thanks to Earth’s atmosphere, if she remains on the planet longer than one week. Still, Venus is a Princess and she's got a plan. Surely, with her help, Michael will fall in love with a human.

But time is running out and Michael is falling for the wrong girl—her.


Book Review

Remember back to a time when you wanted one thing more than anything else in your entire life. That's called Desire. Whatever you did to get that thing was ruled by your Passion, and it probably was the center of your life until you achieved your Desire.

This is what RaShelle Workman's EXILED did for me. It reminded me of my youth, of the things I wanted, of my early days and early ways before I grew up and actually got all those things I wanted.

Writing that moves readers to ponder their hearts is good writing, and that's what readers will find with Workman. She's a dedicated writer who's talented and passionate. Readers won't be disappointed. Her protagonist is strong willed, her antagonist is easy to hate, and her mentor is wholly loveable.

If there was anything negative that I could say about EXILED it would be, Why Can't I Have a Pair of Venus' Boots, NOW? Read the book, you'll want your own pair, too, I promise.

Congratulations, RaShelle, and Thanks for giving us a fascinating story!
