Publisher's summary

Although Laurel has come to accept her true identity as a faerie, she refuses to turn her back on her human life—and especially her boyfriend, David—to return to the faerie world.

But when she is summoned to Avalon, Laurel’s feelings for the charismatic faerie sentry Tamani are undeniable. She is forced to make a choice—a choice that could break her heart.

Critic reviews

"Mixing a little bit of Harry Potter and a lot of Twilight (Team David! Team Tam!), Pike has hit on a winning combination. Yet it is her own graceful take on life inside Avalon that adds a shimmering patina sure to enthrall readers." ( Booklist)

Highly Recommend it!

The short version: I love how this book doesn’t stretch a few interesting storylines into a drawn-out three-book series. Instead, it delivers a concise, engaging narrative that keeps the pace brisk and the plot compelling.

Im happy about the world-building in this series and how it takes its time developing the storylines. It’s refreshing to find a book in this genre that’s PG-rated, which is rare and a welcome change. There’s almost no teen drama, and the characters exhibit real respect and fondness for each other, which enriches their interactions.

The main character can sometimes come across as a bit young and not overly wise, but this adds to the realism and helps the reader connect with the storylines.

There are plenty of intriguing plotlines happening simultaneously, and I’m finding it hard to pace myself and not rush through all the books. I’m devastated that Audible doesn’t have the 5th book—what a loss!

It doesn’t feel like the plot points are being unnecessarily dragged out. The resolutions are unpredictable, at least to me, but that’s part of the fun. I’m thoroughly enjoying both the day-to-day lives of the characters and the more adventurous elements, so it’s all working well together.

The narration is great!

Highly Recommend this series. I will be reading all of her other books in short order.
