Warrior Beautiful (Riders
of Paradesos, #1)
Author: Wendy Knight
Synopsis: Working with the ex you secretly love
to save the souls of the innocent is almost as bad as working with a mighty
battle unicorn who would be thrilled to watch you plummet to your death.
Scout is used to pain. Her body has been broken, her heart has been broken, and the only thing keeping her together is her relationship with her younger sister. Lil Bit be-lieves in unicorns and terrifying monsters she calls soul stealers. But unicorns and monsters aren't real…are they?
When Lil Bit falls prey to the mysterious disease sweeping the country, Scout has two options – believe the doctors who say it’s a pandemic or believe Lil Bit, who says it’s the soul stealers. She chooses her sister and goes looking for the unicorns who are supposed to save them. What she finds aren't the cute pastel mythical creatures she expects. Battle unicorns are big and tough and full of attitude. Who knew?
Unicorns are real and so are the monsters. Soul stealers are reaping the souls of the innocent, and the unicorns are fighting to stop them. But to save the world, they need the help of humans – the enemy they’re dying to protect. And first to sign up for the fight is the ex-boyfriend Scout’s heart won’t stop loving, no matter how determined she is to hate him.

My Review: I was absolutely blown away by this book! I entered it not sure what would happen or if I would even like. I didn't like it I loved it! I want more! Warrior Beautiful is exactly that, beautiful! This book holds nothing back from the reader at all. The amazing battle scenes were as epic as Harry Potter and that's saying a lot coming from a huge Harry fan. I couldn't put this book down I blazed through it. Feeling like I had fought some of the battles myself right along side the main character Scout. Scout is a beautiful girl with a huge heart especially where her sister Lil Bit is concerned. Scout finds herself in some gut wrenching battles to save the one person who has the heart of a true believer. I will be keeping this book on my reread shelf and will be excitedly awaiting the next in the series!
5/5
About the Author
Wendy Knight was born and raised in Utah by a wonderful
family who spoiled her rotten because she was the baby. Now she spends her time
driving her husband crazy with her many eccentricities (no water after five,
terror when faced with a live phone call, etcetera, etcetera). She also enjoys
chasing her three adorable kids, playing tennis, watching football, reading,
and hiking. Camping is also big: her family is slowly working toward a goal of
seeing all the National Parks in the U.S.
You can usually find her with at least one Pepsi nearby, wearing ridiculously high heel for whatever the occasion may be. And if everything works out just right, she will also be writing.
