Where the fairy tale ends, destiny begins.
As Commander of Trinity's elite warriors, Finn O'Connell isn't used to having his authority challenged. He doesn't know whether to punish or protect the infuriating young woman in his custody. When he discovers the Dark Fae want to use Elizabeth's abilities to control the source of all power in the universe, he'll risk everything to help her.
At the mercy of Trinity and enslaved to the Dark Fae, Elizabeth finds herself alone on the wrong side of an Irish myth thousands of years in the making. Refusing to be a pawn in their game, Elizabeth has to fight her way back to the man she loves, but to do so, she must wage her own war against the magic that binds her.
MY REVIEW
I was totally pulled into this fae world created by Colleen Haverson.
I have to say the story doesn't always run at a fast pace, there's world building and characthers to get to know but it kept me hooked.
Elizabeth is an Epic characther, just an ordinary girl studying literature, then pulled into a world she didn't know existed.
Finn is her main sidekick and love interest - not that you would imagine that at the beginning of the book! Finn is a Fae, his a soldier of sorts.
Finn and Elizabeth have a pull between them, but everyone has an agenda for the innocent Elizabeth. Do they really have a chance?? Magic and danger is everywhere!
There's so much going on, as I said so many parties want to own Elizabeth, and I mean own - she is not treated well and I have to admit I found some of the treatment she received difficult to read. I was rooting for Elizabeth, yes I wanted her to be with Finn but most importantly I wanted her to get strong and kick some arse and she didn't disappoint.
If you like your woman strong and like to see them succeed through adversity you'll love this book.
This is a great start to a new series and I look forward to seeing where Elizabeth goes next.
