Do you know who Logan Patricks is?
No? Well, you should!
I signed up for the blog tour not knowing who Logan Patricks was or what Semblance was about. I did not read up on the book or the author before I started the book, but I do have to say...
I am one HAPPY girl that I signed up for this tour!!
SYNOPSIS:
Whoever said money couldn't buy happiness has never starved a day in their lives.
My name is Aria Valencia, a third year classical music student at the university, and I was down
to my last dollar. Some nights, I seriously considered working at the rippers just to make ends
meet, but the thought of my dad's spiritGod rest his soulscowling at me while I danced up on
some drooling degenerate was enough to turn me off the idea completely.
And then one night, chance came knocking on my door under the guise of the Midnight Society, a
secret cabal comprised of the most wealthy and influential souls this side of the Universe. Their
leader was a man named Shadow, who was equally enigmatic as he was gorgeous and, for
some mystifying reason, had his dark brooding eyes focused on me.
Seduced by the promises of fame and fortune in exchange for a seemingly innocent request, I
soon found myself drawn into a provocative world filled with both vast riches and unending lies
and it didn't take long for me to realize what being a part of the Midnight Society actually entailed:
shiny things, sensual romance, and dead bodies.
Being with Shadow came with a terrible price, one that I wasn't willing to pay. There's a dark side
to every love story, and this one was mine.
MY REVIEW
I feel in love with this book right from the start. It had all the things I love (sexy men, love, sex, blood, suspense, death, mystery) all wrapped into one book.
Shadow.... Oh, how I love Shadow! Strong, sexy, leader of the Midnight Society. What's not to love??!!
Logan Patricks had me thinking the outcome was going to end up one way and then BAM!! It went somewhere I never would have thought it would!! I can NOT wait for the next book to come out!!

EXCERPT #1
We visited four more temple ruins that afternoon. Though not as extravagant as Angkor Wat, each
one was just as haunting and beautiful. The one that touched me profoundly was Ta Prohm, where an
ancient looking tree seeped through the ruin’s walls creating a harmonious union between stone and root.
Two different elements of nature, fused into one to form one of the most breathtaking things I’ve
ever seen.
I turned around and looked at Shadow, who was too busy examining the carvings on the stone walls
to notice that I was staring at him.
We were two distinct entities in this vast universe ourselves—Shadow living in a world of money,
power, and a haunting past which suffocates him daily. Meanwhile I was a simple girl whose life blood
was filled with impossible dreams and musical sonatas. My future terrified me and my past was filled with
bittersweet memories.
A week ago, the thought of being in a relationship with this provocative, but ridiculously handsome
man was the last thing I wanted. Seeing the symbiotic union between the tree and the temple made mewonder if a love between Shadow and I could be just as beautiful and spellbinding?
I wanted him. God, I wanted him so badly.
I wanted these dates to be more than just a façade.
I wanted these moments we had together to mean just as much to Shadow as they did to me. I wanted
him to look at me as I looked at him—as the person who captured his heart.
EXCERPT #2
His presence cast a hush throughout the gardens. Shadow strolled towards the three women on their
knees, stalking them with an animalistic grace.
He was ominous, yet electrifying and I found myself trembling just standing in the same vicinity as he
was.
“Your bride awaits you Shadow,” Calisto said to her brother.
I glanced around and noticed that everyone had their head bowed in reverence of this man.
It was disconcerting and this made me panic.
This had to be a cult; there was no other logical explanation in my mind. Any second now, this
Shadow fellow was going to pass out the KoolAid and we were all going to drink it and die.
There was still time for me to flee. I could pretend to use the bathroom and then sneak out the
window or something. I had no idea where on the map this estate was, but that didn’t matter. I needed to
escape and I could figure the rest out later.
I looked around to see if anyone else was watching me.
Damn it, indeed someone was. Calisto’s eyes were deadlocked onto me.
I panicked and almost let loose a scream, but managed to contain myself. Thank God for the mask I
was wearing, which hid the expressions on my face.
Calisto smiled and winked at me, which I thought was a bizarre thing to do. I had no idea what was
happening or what to expect, but I desperately wanted to be away from here.

AUTHOR BIO:
Logan discovered both love and heartbreak at the tender age of seven, when the pretty little
blueeyed girl next door stole his KitKat bar and shared it with the bad boy from across the
street. Devastated, Logan found solace by escaping into imaginary worlds he forged with words,
creating kingdoms where the chivalrous knight always got the princess.
Twenty three years later Logan spends his days in a suit and tie, working for the government on matters of
network security. However his thoughts never strayed too far from the incendiary nature of love — the
passionate fire that’s both scintillating and dangerous. Obsessed with exploring the steamy and mysterious
side of human nature, Logan continues to create worlds filled with thrills, mystery, and of course, sex.
