To get things rolling, in September Sourcebooks will be having a day devoted to characters in the series which will lead up to Entice Me Day with all kinds of fun including more chances to win a copy of Entice and to enter the grand prize sweepstakes. While they will be doing that I figured that I would have my own little discussion on why I'm Team Lincoln instead of Team Phoenix. How does that sound?
Just to refresh your memories here are the covers for the first 2 books in the series that have released in the U.S.:
Gorgeous, right?
One of the reasons why I really love this series (besides the gorgeous covers) is the characters. Violet isn't a girl willing to sit back and let some guy protect and save her when she can do it herself. She's tough, yet vulnerable. And while I do love that, I also think that we've gotten some pretty awesome guys in this series as well.
Which brings me to why I'm Team Lincoln (this is based off my reading Embrace, I haven't had a chance to delve into book 2 yet). From the moment Lincoln enters the story, it is beyond obvious the connection that he has with Violet. It is beautiful and intense and genuine. I never really felt like I had to question his motives. Lincoln wanted to love and protect Violet. But with Phoenix, I was always waiting for the other shoe to drop. I could understand why Violet was intrigued by him and wanted to learn more from him, I just never really felt like they were good together.
Phoenix is an interesting character and I definitely want to learn more about him as the series progresses, but I don't think that he's right for Violet. So, I am Team Lincoln all the way! What do you guys think?

Ooh, those covers are gorgeous. I can't comment on team Lincoln or Phoenix, because I haven't read these yet...
ReplyDeleteI also can't comment on Team Lincoln or Phoenix as I haven't read either, but I'd like the opportunity to figure it out :)))))
ReplyDeleteI love the name Lincoln so that's my team even though I haven't read these!
ReplyDeleteI haven't read the books which is why I'm entering to win them. ;) thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteI haven't read either yet so I don't know which team I am on! I love those covers too!
ReplyDeleteI've had Embrace for the LONGEST time and have wanted to read it but haven't had the time. Unfortunately that means I can't choose which team I'm on... But now you have me intrigued!
ReplyDeleteI haven't read the books yet so I can't say which team I'm on but I would love to have them. The covers are beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI haven't had the privilege of reading Embrace yet so I really can't say. But I do like the sound of Phoenix. Fire is good, right?
ReplyDeleteI have not read this series yet, because I have not gotten around to reading them. But they are on my TBR shelf, and hope I win these :)!
ReplyDeleteAuuugh. This is actually quite difficult, but... Team Lincoln. :)
ReplyDeleteHaven't read the series yet, sadly. So it would be unfair of me to pick a team, though I'm really looking forward to reading it. It's been on my list for so long! The cover for Entice is fantastic! Can't wait to read it! Thanks for the great giveaway! :o)
ReplyDeleteI haven't read this series yet either, so I don't have a team. I definitely need to read them! Embrace has been on my tbr list and this would give me a great reason to finally read it and Entice!! Thanks for the awesome giveaway!!
