~*REVIEW BY JODIE RAE*~

I rated One Petal Flower by Kristi Ayers FIVE LEAVES!! 

 

"This flower I give to you has one petal because I never want you to question my love for you. If you pick the petal off you will be able to say 'he loves me' as there are no other petals for you to say 'he loves me not'." 

 

I am utterly floored that this is Kristi Ayers' debut novel. The author has a great story telling ability. She is able to tell the story effortlessly and all the while keeping the reader's interests at bay. This novel was smoothly written, wonderfully developed, never had a dull moment, and was entertaining all the way through it. This story is about Darian and about survival.  Not just surviving the basics, but really surviving life.  Once I started this book I was hooked! This is a quick paranormal read that sucked me in from the epilogue.   

 

Since the death of her boyfriend, Darian has been lost.  She still has problems coping with his death and can't seem to find her place in the world without him. She is sent to live with her grandmother in Oklahoma, while her parents start a new life for themselves.   Darian gets up day each day and does the normal mundane activities. When she encounters Chayton, a family friend, her life changes. He is able to see dead people and he has talked to Jonas, Darian's boyfriend.  He sees that Darian is struggling just to live and he wants to help her so she can communicate with Jonas.  Of course, it can't always be red roses easy.  Chayton's sister, Nova, has another idea to help her communicate with Jonas.  Nova introduces Darian to Sterling who knows of an even easier way to talk to the dead. I will stop my review there because I just do not want to ruin it anymore.  I will say, I was completely surprised who Darian ended up with and it made my heart happy! :) 

 

Overall, One Petal Flower was an interesting story and I am glad I had the pleasure to read it! This is the type of story that will pull you out of your crazy life and be transplanted directly into the story.  If you enjoy romance, mystery, and fantasy this should be your next read!!
 

One last thing, because One Petal Flower was should an amazing book, I kind of wish there could be a sequel, like an adult- where are they now sequel! I highly recommend this book and look forward to more books by Kristi Ayers!
