Sparks and Shadow

Rising Elements, Book 1

De: Ceara Nobles

Narrado por: Michelle H Lee

To find her true home, she must face her deepest fear.

Fighting to survive is a way of life for 17-year-old Everly. After years living on Seattle’s streets, she is so close to finding a home and saving her best friend from losing her life to drugs the same way her mom did. But when Everly breaks her number one rule to save an enemy, her carefully laid plans are derailed when she’s kidnapped to the land of Faery.

According to the mysterious stranger who saves her life, the portal won’t reopen for six weeks. To stay alive, Everly reluctantly joins his band of rebels fighting against the evil queen. But as an old evil rises in the south, she discovers nowhere is safe in the land of Faery. With civil war imminent, Everly must make a choice: return to what she knows and save her best friend or embrace this new world that feels more like home than Seattle ever did....

Sparks and Shadow is the first book in a modern YA fantasy series featuring a kick-butt heroine, a portal to an astonishing world, and low-spice slow-burn romance. If you like Fae mythology, found family, compelling characters, and action-packed adventure, you’ll love this new series by Ceara Nobles.

Amazing book

I really enjoyed listening about the Fae world and the interesting characters it has. Narrator did a wonderful job with the characters.

Unbiased Review

I am so glad that I had the opportunity to listen to this audiobook for an honest unbiased review. I enjoyed the story and got pulled into it more with it being based at first in Seattle WA. I loved the character how she is tough as nails but does have a heart. I was able to identify with her. The ending cliffhanger has me anxiously waiting until I can get the second book of the series.

awesome book

I loved everything about this book. The narrator did a great job bringing this story to life. I can't wait for the next one!

I loved this story

This was an interesting story. Everly has seen monsters. They hide as humans but she can see their true forms. As she traversed Seattle trying to save her best friend from self destruction like her mother, she gets intertwined with the monsters and is whisked away through a portal. Now she ends up in Faerie and learns quickley her trip home will not be easy. She will have to dig deep to make her journey & she will have to leave before war breaks out and hope is lost. Another new author for me and I am interested to see what journeys this series will take me on.

Just wow

I love it when an author gives a completely different view of the Fae and other worlds. I feel that Ceara Nobles does exactly that with this book in a spectacular way. From the fact that Everly is able to see the 'monsters' to her journey to a different world...and back? (Read it so you know!) As a 17 year old, Everly is much more mature than most, and her need to take care of Mary Beth is almost not healthy. I can't wait to know what happened to her!
I listened to the audiobook version of this book and Michelle H Lee does an excellent job! She makes each character believable and understandable.
I highly recommend this book and hope to read/listen to Book 2 sooner rather than later!
