When Jack is forced to reveal his many secrets, including the curse inflicted upon him by his twin brother, Sebastian, Kate begins questioning what is real and what is just a mere illusion.

My Review

I was completely surprised while reading this story how addicting it can be.  Aimee has written a story so crafty that it can put you in a reading trance.  Enigma is definitely a story like none other.  I love the unexpected feel to it and not knowing what it going to happen.  So to sum this up without giving anything away will be hard.  Kate, somewhat humbled spoiled rich girl, moves to CA with her family during her first year of college.  I actually really like her character, a bit needy but definitely one to admire.  She meets Jack, her neighbor.  Jack is too a college student, but he is different.  Kate doesn’t have the most loving family.  Actually they don’t love at all except to themselves, which is why Kate falls so hard for Jack.  He shows and gives her all the love and affection a person should have.  Falling for Jack proves to give more than just heart ache.  It is deadly.  Seb, Jacks brother is tied to Jack’s fate, which now falls into Kate’s hands.  No pressure.  When Kate finds that there is a reason for her attraction to Jack, she realizes that she might have fallen for the wrong brother.  That’s all I can say without ruining the story.  If you like adventure, mystery, suspense and drama, then you need to read this.
