When Jackson Pearce put out that she was writing Sisters Red, the world flipped upside down. In the best way possible.

It all starts when two sister’s grandmother was killed and an eye was taken. Seven years later, Scarlett March and her sister Rosie do what they can to defeat all the Fenris they can.

For Scarlett, this is a need. A need to save other young girls from being killed. She is an expert armed with a hatched and blood red cloak. Scarlett is your go to girl when it comes to slaying weres.
For Rosie, it is more of an obligation. An obligation to her sister who saved her life on that fateful day. Unlike her sister, Rosie doesn't love the hunt. But she keeps fighting so she doesn’t break the bond she feels she shares with Scarlett.

When a major lead is shared with them by a long time family friend, Silas, the girls jump at the chance to take down some Fenris. But things are different.
Rosie is starting to dream of more. She wants to learn and do other things besides the ways to kill a Fenris. She wants more out of life, including Silas, who came back into her life hotter than ever, but that would mean betraying her sister. Rosie owes Scarlett her life. So, how could she even think of destroying what they have?

This modern day version of Little Red Riding Hood will have you hooked. From the very beginning I knew this was going to be a novel you will never forget. I was right.
Jackson Pearce writes voices so strong, you will believe you are Scarlett and Rosie. She made fight scenes, sisterly scenes, intense scenes, and sweet scenes meld together perfectly.

The story line is beautiful. Sisters fighting together as one to save others from a fate like theirs. You will be turning the pages as fast as possible and someone will have to pry the book away from you.
The characters are relatable and you will want to either be them or at least know them. I love Scarlett’s intensity for the kill and Rosie’s need to find herself. I also loved Silas. Hot, sweet Silas. Read this book and you will know exactly why we have named him one of our most favorite book boys.
I want to also point out the gorgeous cover. They way the faces mold together with the Fenris face is absolutely stunning.
I could talk forever about this fantastic read. You can never go wrong with a Jackson Pearce novel.
Everyone who touches this book only has rave reviews about it. So don’t lag behind on the top books and get your own copy of Sisters Red.
