Review

4 stars!

This is a great read! An intense and chemistry-filled fae romance with magic, intrigue, well-developed characters facing a heartwrenching situation, and a gorgeous, passion-filled romance

Hannah is a young human woman who lives in a cabin on her beloved family farm. Working with her parents, she was living the life that she’s always wanted until she became sick. Her body is shutting down and nobody can tell her why. She knows her time is limited, but her family is fighting as hard as they can for her, and they’re preparing for a fundraising event to raise money for her medical care when a handsome stranger appears on the farm.

Ellister is a tormented fae whose job who arrives at the farm to fulfill a bargain made generations before. He needs to collect payment on a past favour, and the price is Hannah’s soul, which he must return to his master upon her death.

From the very beginning, there is a strong connection between Hannah and Ellister. They are attracted to each other, but believing that he is there to buy the farm from her parents, Hannah is instantly enraged by his presence, even if it brings her peace and relief from the almost-constant pain that she suffers from. The draw of wanting to be near him, while hating him, creates wonderful chemistry, especially as Ellister finds himself unexpectedly falling for Hannah.

“What I feel for you is unmatched by anything I’ve ever experienced. I don’t even have a name for it. It’s literally indescribable. All I can say for certain is that I would do anything for you.”

Torn between his duty and the feelings he is developing for Hannah, Ellister wrestles with his fate – and with hers – as the two of them fall hard for each other. It’s sweet, passionate, and beautifully emotional, with Hannah’s illness making it all the more heartfelt.

I’ve never felt safer or more content than I do now, and I’m just grateful for every minute I have with him. “So, how long will you stay, then”
“As long as I have to.”
That vague statement requires clarification. “As long as you have to for what?”
“To be here with you.”
Stunned, I blink. “Are you saying you’ll…stay until – the end?”
“Is that what you want?” There’s a tinge of hope in his question.
“More than anything.”
I hear him swallow. “Then, I will.”
“Why?”
“Because you need me.”

It’s a gorgeous, swoon-filled romance that is full of emotion, chemistry and passion. I loved watching things develop between these two despite all that they are facing, and can’t wait to see how their story unfolds.

“You’ve only known me since yesterday.”
“It’s enough.”
“Enough for what.”
“Enough for me to know you belong with me.”

I really enjoyed this book. I love a fantasy/paranormal novel, but they’re often long and quite the undertaking to dive into. This is shorter book that is well written, easy to read and which very quickly sucked me into the story. I loved this first part Hannah and Ellister story. Ellister’s world is well-developed and intriguing, those final chapters bring twist after twist as Ellister fights to save the woman he loves, and the stage is set for an exciting conclusion when their story continues in The Dark Fae’s Destiny.

I loved this one – 4 stars!
