What if your destiny lay on the other side of death?

The annual Culling ceremony is a day every coming-of-age novice looks forward to within the Primeval Coven. It’s the start to being initiated into the Night Watchmen, humankind’s protectors, and it’s the long-awaited day when novices discover if they’re a Hunter or a Witch.

But this day is not a happy one for Faye Middleton. Not when she’s known her whole life that she’s a Defect and is about to face banishment in front of her fellow novices. She’s forced to attend the Culling with little hope for her future, but what she discovers about herself is far worse than she could’ve imagined. And far more dangerous.

Thrown into training and separated from her friends, Faye must learn to adjust. She struggles to find her place within the Coven, and with Jaxen Gramm, the darkly handsome and extremely unnerving man assigned to watch and protect her. Emotions run high, and when she discovers a deadly secret about him, her struggles deepen. As corruption within the Coven begins to unravel, Faye pieces together her role in saving the future of her people, and within Jaxen’s life...but will the truth save her, or be her undoing?

5.0 out of 5 stars Extraordinary!!!

Everlasting is such an extraordinarily good book. It's filled with witches, watchers, demons,and so much more. A strong plot and very likable characters. I couldn't put it down. I absolutely loved it!

Faye Middleton had been dreading the Culling or a ceremony that tells you if you are to be a Hunter or a Witch. She had finally accepted that she would be a Defect and banished from her Coven, but destiny had other plans for her. Instead she was thrown into training and seperated from her peers. She is guarded by the Gramm brothers and must learn how to survive.

I really love Faye's strength and drive to make make it through the trials she continually had to be faced with. She could have given up but instead she would fight even harder, sometimes surprising herself. I think I could really relate with her because of her total loyalty to her friends and family. Throughout the entire book she stayed true to herself and to her loved ones. I really liked that about her.

Jaxen Gramm is a Night Watchman and assigned to guard and train Faye. He struggles with secrets of his own and a growing attraction to Faye. He is definitely complicated and sometimes moody, but the closer Faye gets to him the more that is revealed about why he acts so cold sometimes.

I have fallen head over heals for him. I could almost feel the internal struggle and pain that threatened to tear him apart. I just couldn't get enough of him. Most of the time I wanted to grab him and give him a hug but there were other times I wanted to smack him and tell him to open his eyes. Jaxen is an amazing Hunter that is very skilled with his hands and knows how to handle pretty much anything that is thrown at him. He puts his pain to good use, but facing the pain is a whole other story. Faye is exactly what he needs to give him the stength and courage to face it head on.

I cannot say enough good things about Everlasting. I wanted to read it from the moment I seen the cover and I must say it surpassed my expectations a million times over. I had hoped it would be good, but WOW it ended up being one of the best, most addicting stories I have read to date. I have to admit there were times I got so caught up in the story that I was brought to tears. An amazing story, lovable characters and many surprises are just a few reasons why you should read this book. I know I can;t wait to read more in the series!

The first in a series, this was a fantastic read and I can so see myself getting addicted to this series!
Told from Faye's POV, we follow her on her journey from her believing she is going to be banished for being a Defect, to her discovering the shocking truth of what she really is. I loved Faye, she was such a great character. She was tough, feisty and independent. I loved how she stood up for herself and didn't let people walk all over her. Even though she was going through so much and I could totally understand if she just curled up into a ball and tried to forget everything, she didn't. She was a fighter and I really admired that about her.
Another character I really loved was Jaxon. Oh Jaxon *swoon*. I want one. He was so much more than what I thought he was going to be. I was expecting the typical bad boy persona - cocky, closed-off, jerkish behavior. While he did have these he was also so sweet, and got so nervous around Faye. He was just adorable! I loved that there was so much more to him than meets the eye. It was so refreshing. Him and Faye had great chemistry together. Nothing about them felt rushed or forced. Their relationship moved at the perfect pace. Yay for no insta-love!

They story itself was very fast paced and full of heart-pounding action. The romance didn't take away from everything else that was happening in the story. The author brought something different to a genre that seems over-done. There was originality that made me invested in the story and kept me up until the early hours of the morning. There was also lots of twists that had me even more hooked. Come 3am I literally had to pry my kindle out of my hands and force myself to go to sleep. While the plot was quite serious there was also lots of laughs to be had. Jaxon's brother Gavin was hilarious!

All in all this was a fabulous read. Non-stop action, and a butterflies-inducing romance, this book is a must read. The first book I have read from this author and it definitely won't be the last. Bring on book #2!

I honestly LOVED this book. Everlasting is book 1 in the Night Watchmen series and I cannot wait for the next book to come out. I rarely give a book a five star rating, but this is definitely a five star book.

From page one, this book moves at a fast pace, making it impossible to put down. The story is light on the romance but heavy on the action. I love the world that Candace Knoebel created for her characters and how it overlaps the real world. It was very well-constructed and creative.

In the beginning, Faye's biggest fear is being labeled a Defect in her coven. When she discovers that her fate holds something much different, she is forced to do a lot of growing up alone. Faye is young so she still has her moments where she acts juvenile. Overall, I found her to be a likable character with potential to become a tough female heroine. I was glad that the author didn't have her suddenly grow up when faced with her fate. It is much better to watch her grow in stages.

Jaxon is your sexy brooding hero with a tortured soul. He definitely brings the hot factor to the book. While this is light on the romance, there is always an underlying attraction between Faye and Jaxon that is easy to feel. The supporting characters in this book were also a lot of fun. I especially loved the contrast between Jaxon's serious nature and his brother Gavin's playful attitude. There were characters that I wasn't quite sure I trusted which brought another element of intrigue to the story.

If you are looking for an action packed witch story, then you should definitely read Everlasting.

I picked this to read at random from one of the many books I haven’t yet read on my Kindle, so I was surprised and delighted to find myself caught up in a magical page turner, with wonderful characters and a plot that constantly twisted and turned.

Faye lives in a world of witches and hunters, who go out in pairs to fight vampires and demons. Faye’s parents were famous for their prowess, but she has been brought up to believe herself a defect, a child with no abilities as either a witch or a hunter. Of course the truth turns out to be far more complex and Faye is launched into her own magical adventure with a select group of witches and hunters who teach her everything they know.

I love the characters in this book and I was totally swept along with their emotional highs and lows. The relationship between Faye and Jaxen is wonderfully gripping from start to finish. He is full of mystery and glamour and just enough conflict through his witch Jezi and a family curse. I also love the way the dynamic deepens through Jaxen’s brother. Katie, Faye’s best friend adds plenty of action to the story as well as showing us how wonderfully loyal Faye is.

But the book isn’t all about romance, there is plenty of action and lots of surprises as the plot unfolds.

I loved this book, and my only disappointment was that the next instalment hasn’t yet been published, so I will be watching this space.

I read a previous review that complemented this book on the fact that it contains elements from a number of different stories. I felt that this was the main problem. To not be able to wrap things up better (even with a cliffhanger) within a book of this length, speaks of two things to me:

Faye has known her entired life that she was a defect, neight a witch or a hunter after her mother had a vision. Preparing for the worst after Culling day she applied to College but her life flips upside down with her parents vanishing during a mission and she becomes an original entity that hasn't been seen in hundreds of years.

Fayes life has been changed in the matter of a day and she has a new future in front of her she never thought she'd have but the brunt is lessened a little with her trainer Jaxen being her stoic guard.

Great start in a New Adult Series with some serious sexual frustration which will hopefully resolve itself in future books. Their romance is really sweet though and I enjoyed their private moments when the real Jaxen came forward.
The situation with Fayes parents was never resolved so hopefully that won't be drawn out as the little I read of them was endearing.

Looking forward to the sequel

I massively enjoyed this book. At the beginning I found the main character, Faye, whiney and annoying so found it a little hard to push through, but I'm so glad I did. Once I got past the Culling it was very difficult to put the book down. I am going straight on to book 2 and can't wait to find out what's in store for Faye & Jaxen, my new favourite couple
