Compel by Rachel Van Dyken & Patti Stanger is now live! From #1 New York Times bestselling author Rachel Van Dyken and bestselling author Patti Stanger comes a gripping love story of cursed soulmates who are forced to relive tragedy over and over again until their curse is broken…
BLURB:
Compelled to seduce, designed to kill.
What do you do when your love destroys the only person you are designed to be with?
For centuries I've been trapped in a curse with my soulmate, only she has no idea… until history finally repeats itself.
The Matchmaker of the Fae felt wronged when we both chose our own destinies, and now, we're forced to relive our fate over and over again.
I try like hell to fix the curse, but I remember nothing after each death, only that I'm lonely and heartbroken.
The small town of Orca Cove, Oregon, doesn't help matters.
Filled with paranormal lore from all over the world… if anything, they're just as trapped as I am.
My only help is the large library on my estate.
If I can just find the notes I know I would have hidden, along with texts, maybe this time will be different.
The house groans with need for its mistress.
My heart breaks with sorrow that she doesn't recognize me until it's too late.
Her blood will always be on my hands, just like her heart is in mine.
The path to your soul mate isn't a fairytale—at least ours isn't.
My Fae queen thinks she's nothing more than a normal college student. She believes that the world is just as she sees it, without a clue that the darkness lurking in the shadows, the man she'll fall for once again, the man who will be her demise…
Is me.

My Review:
My Rating: 4 Stars
Cursed Soul mates. Supernatural creatures. Small town. Death. Love. Hope. Angst. In Rachel Van Dyken and Patti Stangers book we get all of the above. Benjamin has been cursed to live on Earth and never grow old or die. Instead he is cursed to find his soulmate only to be ripped away again and again. Though he tries to fight the curse each time he never seems to be able to break it, except maybe this time it might be different.
Rachel and Patti do a great job creating a world where you can lose yourself in and feel like you know. I think if the duo continues this series it could be a great one, however I would have liked to see Benjamin and his soulmate more in the present time, but there was quite a bit of their past lives that I enjoyed like seeing the two of them fall in love. I felt this book could have been split into a duet because there were many parts in the second half that I felt could be expanded. I am intrigued to see if they continue this series because now that most of the world building is done they can focus on the relationship aspects more. I may add more to this after thinking about the book longer.
