The Lockwood Trilogy: Book 1
Author: Melissa Cassera 
Genre:Upper YA / New Adult Paranormal Romance

Book release: March 28, 2023

BOOK BLURB: 

  An elite boarding school. A mysterious new student. A premonition of murder.
For Natalie Covington and Henry Thorne, only one thing is certain: things are about to get out of control.
18-year-old Natalie has big ambitions but very little control over her situation. She’s trapped at an elite boarding school on a private island, where cell phones are forbidden, militant guards line the iron gates, and her practically prearranged boyfriend has eyes for another girl.
Everything changes when a mysterious new student arrives named Henry Thorne. Henry is a “precog”—a hidden society of people who can see the future, and who are forbidden to reveal their powers. When Henry has a grisly vision of Natalie being murdered, he ultimately decides to save her and face the consequences. But the consequences of changing the future are more dangerous than Henry imagined, unlocking a wide conspiracy among his kind that’s linked to Natalie’s past, and a desire that threatens to consume them.

CONTROL is the first installment in The Lockwood Trilogy. This fast-paced Upper YA / New Adult Paranormal Romance is filled with thrilling turns, self-discovery, spicy language, light steam, and a cliffhanger ending that will leave you obsessing for more


BOOK REVIEW:

I give this book a 4/5 🌟🌟🌟🌟

It is a good start to a series, which I believe will get better as the author develops Natalie’s character. The writing is easy to follow. The book is written in the 3 main characters POV so you know what they are thinking. The drama of this book is somewhat immature and everyone is a bit selfish looking at things from their point of view,  but I guess is to be expected due to the age of the characters.
I will like to see how this series continues. The plot twist are very good and what happens in the story is not predictable which is keeps you interested.
