Publisher's summary

During the rule of her murderous Dark Fae uncle, Thistle "Tricks" Periwinkle found sanctuary among the Wyr in New York. Her ethereal beauty and sparkling personality won the hearts of the public, but after her uncle's death, there are those who don't want to see her ascend to the throne.

Able to wield thunder and lightning, Wyr sentinel Tiago Black Eagle has ruled the skies for centuries. His massive build and thunderous power make him one of the Wyr's best weapons. And he's sent to protect Tricks when she's almost assassinated in Chicago. Soon, both Tiago and Tricks will fall prey to the stormy hunger that engulfs them - a passion that will shake the very foundation of all the worlds.

Critic reviews

"The mix of supernatural creatures makes for interesting world-building, politics, and relationships." ( Publishers Weekly)

favorite book ever

I loved it it's my favorite book and shes working on being my favorite author

epic

Just as intriguing as the previous book. Fighting for the one you love was never so beautifully portrayal...

The Dark Fae’s story

If you follow the Elder Races, you want to read this book; the second in the series. It is well written and gives insights into the Dark Fae court.

I have no explanation why, but these characters and the book are not my favorite in the series. My favorite parts of the story are when Pia gives Tiago Black Eagle an earful (re Niniane Lorelle, formerly Trix, head of PR for Dragos Cuelebre, head of the Wyr demesne); and when Rune meets Carling.

Eastlake does a decent job of narration, but does a better job with female voices.

Anxious for more!

I absolutely loved the twists and turns in their story. I want more of it.

good over evil and the hot love in the story

I would recommend this book to family and friends.... listening to the books while I work is very helpful.

Wow!

Would you listen to Storm's Heart again? Why?

This is definitely not a cerebral endeavor, instead it is a bit of fantasy that keeps you laughing and wanting more. Every woman's fantasy is to be protected though I doubt I would be able to withstand Tiago's style. The book was fun, fun, fun and a great way to escape the realities of life. Loved it!

What was one of the most memorable moments of Storm's Heart?

There were so many but I was touched by the toughness of Tricks and the gentleness of Tiago.

Which character – as performed by Sophie Eastlake – was your favorite?

The author did a great job of capturing her characters. The language and the humor was perfect.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Nothing she was great!

Any additional comments?

Read this book, it is so much fun and personally I feel it is well written.

Love this series

First the narrator is terrific. The characters are developed and funny. I must get the rest. I want to know Trix.

chevelle

I loved this book kept me interested. didn't want to stop listening. the narrator was great.

Great character development

I love these books because the characters are so entertaining and multidimensional. Some of the word choices in the intimate scenes is a little off, but story and character more than make up for the occasional word twinge.

Getting hooked pretty easily!

So far I'm finding it pretty easy to get into these books quickly, and they hold my attention all the way to the end. The stories have been well written and full of action. I like that they are not making me wait too long for anything of significance to happen. The leading characters are well written and performed with substance. The story lines have all been intriguing and have kept me wanting to continue the series. Each book is so well written that I have read them out of order and still enjoyed them all. That only happens if you are able to pick up and understand just were you are in the complete story line, and so far Thea Harrison is batting 100%! I am truly loving the Elder Races Series!

Sophie Eastlake has a good grasp on each character, and I have not found myself being irritated with any of the voices. Good job!
