Seed is proof once again that no one writes angst quite like Cassia Leo. This latest installment in the Evergreen trio of books shows just how amazing she is at keeping the reader completely engaged going from book one to book two. Leo has a way of continuing the story-line so that it is fresh and gripping like no one else. Typically the middle book of a trilogy can feel almost a bit bland but I promise you Seed is quite the opposite.
I read it with a perpetual stirring in my gut not knowing which direction Laurel would take. She's still so lost without her Jack and watching her continue to spiral a bit was intensely heartbreaking.
Picking up where we left off in Dirt, I was almost afraid at times what the future could hold for her as she contends with her split from her soulmate as well as the burgeoning and very unexpected connection with Isaac.
Jack, Laurel and Isaac are all in their own sort of pain and I had to wonder just how they might sort out their issues. Jack remains absent and mysterious as Laurel grasps for some sort of normalcy. With Isaac watching in the wings as the third wheel of sorts, it's only a matter of time before each of their worlds goes upside down and back again.
I will just say this: this is Cassia Leo at her very best. She is truly a master of the 'triangle' and this latest of hers had me gasping loudly more than once. She also adds the right amount of lighter moments with the good friends in Drea and Dylan which makes the story a clear winner for me. Hold on tight. This is one intricate journey you won't want to end.
As a reminder, this is book two in the Evergreen trilogy and Dirt must be read before you get to Seed.
Really well done, I give Seed a huge 5 stars!
