Synopsis: "All her life, Breena had always dreamed about fairies as though she lived among them...beautiful fairies living among mortals and living in Feyland.
In her dreams, he was always there the breathtakingly handsome but dangerous Winter Prince, Kian, who is her intended. When Breena turns sixteen, she begins seeing fairies and other creatures mortals don't see. Her best friend Logan suddenly acts very protective.
Then she sees Kian, who seems intent on finding her and carrying her off to Feyland. That's fine and all, but for the fact that humans rarely survive a trip to Feyland, a kiss from a fairy generally means death to the human unless that human has fairy blood in them or is very strong, and although Kian seemed to be her intended, he seems to hate her and wants her dead."
My Review: What an exciting story, it just sucks you right in and wont let you go. I loved the characters, they were each unique. Breena was very interesting to me, she didn't really fit in her high school and was a fun down to earth girl, but while out of her comfort zone in feyland she steps up and doesn't wait around to be saved. I am not really sure what to think of Kian, but I think that is what Kailin Gow wanted for the readers, to constantly wonder is he against Breena or with her? I loved Logan, I think he was my favorite! The descriptions of the different fae were interesting, I found the pixies to be scary yet intriguing. I also enjoyed how Kailin described the differences between our world and theirs, she didn't go into so much detail that it distracted from the story but enough so you could understand. I found my heart racing at all the twists and turns that were thrown throughout the book and left anxious for the next book (thankfully it has been released, I just need to get my hands on it)!

My Rating: This was definitely a Four Paw book for me! I really enjoyed the journey it took me on and I can't wait for the next one!
I am so glad you posted this. I bought a book in another series by her, Desire, and I'm hoping it's just as good. Now I want to read this one too. ^_^
ReplyDeleteThanks for the review. I've been wondering about this one. Now I'll have to give it a try.
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to hear what you think of her other series Jessica! Maybe I'll to get into that one too.
ReplyDeleteI suggest that you get the rest of the series before reading it though, cause I am having to wait.
