Forever Fae Review




**Review may contain spoilers**

Synopsis from Goodreads.com:

He leans down, lips parted, and then our lips connect……….We didn’t know that this one kiss has FOREVER changed the Land of the Fae.
According to the Prophecy proclaimed many years ago, Princess Calista of the Summer Court is destined to change the Land of the Fae from the evil determined to destroy it. Her powers are phenomenal, and she secretly trains for battle with her handsome warrior friend, Merrick, who unbeknownst to her protects her heart as well, in hopes of keeping it for himself. At least, until the seductive Prince Ryder attends the Guardian Ceremony and instantly sends a fire burning through her veins and a connection so deep they both discover a love above anything imaginable.
No one knows how Calista is destined to change the kingdoms, but there is one that does. He not only craves Calista’s power, but her body as well, and his goal is to steal her power, make her his Dark Queen, and take over the Land of the Fae.
Will the evil succeed in claiming Calista’s soul? Or will the two men that fight for her heart save her from despair, and help her fulfill her destiny to become what she was meant to be.

My thoughts:

PROS:
The story has a good mixture of action, adventure, humor, romance, and drama. The heroine's characteristics are those that I look for in a book including being headstrong, stubborn, kick-ass but at the same time caring, compassionate, and kind.  The heroine's love interests also doesn't fail us with their sexiness, good looks, strength, courage, and their slight streak of possessiveness towards the heroine.  I always do enjoy a good love triangle which this book exemplifies.

CONS:
The one thing that really put me off was the way the book was written.  I found that the paragraphs were lengthy and the way that the sentences were structured made it hard for me to read.  In addition, the style of the writing does not invoke much emotion from me.  I found that the romance part of the story was way too fast and did not show depth of the character's love for each other.  

The book has great potential especially for those who enjoy anything about the Fae.  The writing style is a personal preference, therefore, if other readers doesn't mind it, then they will truly enjoy the story.  

I am giving this book a rating of.....



Rating: 3.5/5
