The Forever Girl: Sophia's Journey by Rebecca HamiltonMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
Sophia is a waitress who is a practicing Wiccan. She hears hissing noises in her mind and she believes the only way to stop them is to solve the mystery of her ancestor’s hanging. She finds a personal document of her ancestor’s in her house that she inherited from her grandfather that starts her on her journey to solve the mystery.
Someone leaves threatening notes taped to Sophia’s door and in her mail box from a woman that her Mother goes to church with. They want Sophia to sell them her house telling her that it is their church.
Sophia doesn’t have many friends only two Ivory and Lauren. Ivory takes Sophia to Club Flesh one night where she meets this gorgeous hunk of a guy named Charles. Charles knows that Sophia is in danger at the club and takes her away. When they leave the club they are followed so they head for the woods where Sophia is attacked. Charles leaves her alone in the woods right before the attack so she thinks. They take her to Ivory’s house where Ivory tells her every one's secret but her own.
Sophia moves in with Charles, in the guest room, she is not quiet ready to make a move like sleeping in his bed yet. Her moving in with Charles is so he can protect her better, yeah right. Charles’ parents come for a visit and when they leave they are kidnapped so Sophia, Charles and Adrian go after them. Sophia wants to help but she is not sure that she can. She has only just found out that she is a witch and doesn’t know how to use her powers and only has a short time to practice.
I kelp seeing all these tweets from Rebecca Hamilton @InkMuse on Twitter saying email her for a free copy of her book The Forever Girl so I thought this sounds like it will be a good book so I emailed her and she sent me The Forever Girl as a Kindle gift. Rebecca Hamilton’s writing style is superb. You would never know that this is her first novel. She takes you into a whole new world of Vampires, witches and shape-shifters as no other book has done before, to a world where no one has gone before. If you would like to try reading something new or different but at the same time you still want to read about vampires, witches or shape-shifters then The Forever Girl is for you.

I loved Sophia. She was intelligent and strong willed. Even though she had a lot to be afraid of, she didn't give in to her fear. Also she had this humorous voice that wasn't over the top. Lately, in a lot Urban Fantasy books I am seeing a trend with a overly snarky first person voice. Sophia did not have this. She was funny but it didn't saturate the story. Also, I was drawn into Sophia and her emotions. The supporting characters are well rounded and multidimensional. Each has their own strengths and weaknesses.
