A NIGHT OWL REVIEWS BOOK REVIEW | Reviewed by: Marta
A woman's determination to lead her people to safety and the desperate need to seek deliverance from past mistakes are some of the intricate highlights that make A Noble Sacrifice such a splendid and addicting read. Tared and Joyella are a strong pair. And in order to succeed in saving the precious balance of their people they each had to learn lessons in humility along with the realization that compromises must be made while reforming old beliefs. Ciara Gold has penned an entertainingly charming and endearing story that will pique the reader's interest from beginning to end. Ms. Gold has done an amazing job of taking the reader on a road to rediscovery beautifully illustrating how two people from different races and values overcame their differences through love and determination. Hats off to Ms. Gold's ingenuity on creating such a wonderfully vivid futuristic world filled with romance and mystical dragons. I cannot wait to see what future offerings Ms. Gold has in store for her readers.
