Publisher's summary

Her powers can make the elements change...but Elena will never change how the Fae see her.

Half-breed. The lowest of low. Halven, the forbidden offspring produced by the mating of a Fae and a human.

The only thing Fae despise more than Halven—well, nothing.

When a deadly virus sweeps their world, killing immortal Fae, a secret about a royal bloodline is revealed.

The half-breed holds the key to their survival.

And on her 18th birthday, Elena discovers a world of warring Faery kingdoms and her fateful place in it...among her enemies.

If only she could unlock her powers.

With no one to trust, she turns to the beautiful, brilliant boy next door. But Derek has secrets of his own.

He’s a half-breed like her. And his father is the cruel king who wants Elena dead. At all costs.

The last in line of a powerful Fae, she refuses to use her magic for those who hate her. But when she discovers her mother is still alive, she'll do whatever it takes to earn her mother’s freedom.

Even agree to help the enemy.

Love story and parental struggles, good story

The story depicted betrayal, young love, and a secret society. All very delicious storylines that were read beautifully. I finished the book in 2 days, It would've been finished in 1 day but, my family needs some of my attention (smile).

Great young adult paranormal.

would love to hear more ambit about the Faei and halvens. The storyline was good.

great book

narration was great. great book, I did love it, some parts did get a lil boring. I like to hear parts and get really into it, but this book it wasn't alit. I did still like it though

Not my favorite

I didn't care for this one. I tried. It would be great for teenagers though.

Good listen

Very enjoyable. Good store development, wish it was a series. Love the narrator. Not much for words, so I'm filling the woird limit.

I enjoyed this series

Contrary to many reviews, I actually really enjoyed this book. Was it cheesy at points? Yes, but it was cute cheesy I thought. I like the different “Fae” in this series compared to other Fae. I also absolutely adore this narrator. I know it says Lydia Sanders but it has to be Elizabeth Evans under a different name. It is 100% her voice and I went to a few other books I have that she narrated to listen and check and it’s definitely her. She is one of my absolute favorite narrators so as soon as I started the book and heard her I knew I would listen no matter what the reviews looked like. I listen at least 1.4 speed on all books so I didn’t notice any pauses ect.

Wow

Kept me intrigued the entire time! Elizabeth Evans is talented at performing! I am in awe of her.

Sorry I tried.

Definitely struggled to keep going. Didn't make it past chapter 8. The story had some interesting concepts but the pace was slow and the performance was lackluster.

Wonderful

There were times where the narration was kind of slow, but still I did not lose interest.

EXCELLENT BOOK! (Great for supernatural beginners!)

Ok. So this is going to be a little long.

I’m not normally a “supernatural” romance kind of person but I go through audible books so fast I’m running out of ones I like (for free). So I gave this one a chance.

Oh. My. God. It did NOT disappoint!


I was SO terrified the main characters wouldn’t be able to be a couple in the end. And the mystery....intrigue...LAYERS UPON LAYERS!!!

It’s not very “smutty” and NO swear words (if that’s not your thing) but the romance will still make you catch your breath.

The author even takes the time to help explain who the...for lack of better terms “races” are. In simple terms. Without making you (the reader) feel stupid or talking over you. Seriously, I came into this going “uh what’s a fae?” And am now confusing my husband with halven, Oldlander, Newlander, etc.

Enjoy!
