Fairy Faith #3
White Fells
The star-crossed lovers in this absorbing fantasy novel are two warriors from opposite worlds. Princess Scota is an earthly princess who does not believe in the fairy world until she meets a defiant captive named Boyden, who is revealed to be a legendary fey fighter trying to stop earthly incursions into his realm. As Scota and Boyden face off, battling across the wind-scored hills and misty woodlands that border the fairy realm, their distrust erupts into a hot and eternal passion. Though they fear their love has come too late to stop the killing, they declare a truce between their two armies.

I have never read anything by this author before. I picked it up on a whim as it had a 75% discount sticker on it. Still, it sat on my stack of books patiently awaiting its turn as I pondered reading it. My hubby tossed it in my purse when he realized we were going out & I was almost done with another book I had been reading. I grumbled a bit about it, grudgingly thankful to not be without a book at least. Don't get me wrong, it looked like a good book, I just wasn't in the mood to try something new. I have books by much loved authors I've been waiting to read, but I don't think he felt like sorting through them.
Last night, I kept telling myself I needed to go to sleep. I kept reading. My husband told me I needed to go to sleep. Still I kept reading. I told myself I really needed to do a last check in on the kids, brush my teeth, turn off the light and go to bed. Sometime after 2:30am, my bladder finally stated the book was portable & I had other needs to attend to, but my mind suggested it may be a good time to PUT DOWN THE BOOK & GO TO BED! So I think I did about 3am. =)
Today, at lunch, I read as much as I could before my lunch break was over. Tonight, I strictly enforced bedtime, allowing kids to fall asleep on the futon or in my room as long as they went to sleep.
This book was different than I expected. I'm not sure why or how. Perhaps I thought it was going to be an epic book that was indeed an epic read. I honestly don't know. However, it was absolutely amazing. An incredible storyline woven around two strong warriors, growing as individuals, learning to accept each other and perhaps even more difficult...learning to accept themselves. The plot line moved swiftly, rich with the intertwining of ancient Spanish and Irish "folklore" or "mythology." The action was well written, humor chased throughout the dialogue, and the scenery was beautifully, enchantingly real.
I will be so happy to get my hands on Fey Born.
I can add a new favorite among the authors I admire & follow.

This story marks the begining of the kings of Scotland. Derina faces down both the High King and the Wind Servent King to bring the 4 winds. All in all, well written.

Ok, now that I've finished the series, I can collect my thoughts. There are some niggling issues related to the author's style. How to put it... An attempt to dramatize an event by making paragraphs out of descriptive words and v. short sentences. An example:
Her heartbeat increased.
The enemy.
Seducer.
Him.
Not her!
This book had more of these than the previous books. Kinda irritating. The prose was a bit more... Well, there was the sentence "He wanted her begging and convulsing as his root invaded her cave" Yeah.
So now that I've dissed the *style*, I shall rate the book.
The h was a warrior princess from another culture - invader actually. The H was a descendent from a mix of fairy and... who knows what else. He could control the wind. He let himself be captured by her people in order to help the old druidess from previous books escape (she'd been captured too). He did escape, and took the h with him. A good portion of the book is of them on the run from a sleaze ball from her people. She fell for him, saved his life, etc. All in all, the book was good. It would have been better if some editor had gotten rid of cave and root references - and those dramatic short sentence/paragraph things.

Love the unusual magic in these books - ie the power to summon
the bringer of death in the form of a fey wind - cool or what -
beautifully descriptive in myth and legend and highly sensual
when love awakens through the battle of a journey undertaken.
Learn the meaning of true sacrifice as this book comes alive.
Loved every moment.
