Dragonflies
“It’ll be alright, mo grá,” he whispered. “You said I had a boyfriend, but you keep calling me your love. Why?” “Can’t I love you too?” I supposed so. As we both got up, he kissed my forehead once before transforming into the raven once more. It gave me comfort that he wasn’t leaving me just yet.
Kidnapped by the Queen of Elphame, Bridget is stuck in her worst nightmare. Can her lover and her (former?) lover save her before it’s too late? Or was she never meant to be saved?
Things aren’t always what they seem, and in a world where magic is suddenly real, Bridget and Declan are in over their heads. Is Ruad, Bridget’s mysterious savior, really only out for his gain? More questions than answers pop up in the quest to rescue Bridget, but if they don’t hurry up, they will run out of time, and Bridget will be lost to them forever.

About the author
Shea Hulse
14 books27 followersShea Hulse writes dark Celtic fantasy romance rooted in real Irish mythology — the kind with ancient druids, wrongly-accused heroes, and heroines who refuse to be saved.
Her Dragon Fire & Druids series and Celtic Romance series blend Irish folklore with emotionally-charged romantic tension. Think forbidden love with actual mythological stakes. Her books have been described as "impossible to put down" and "the romantasy series I didn't know I needed."
Shea is also the founder of The Romantasy Writers Coven, an async community for writers building dark fantasy romance. She teaches the craft without the camera, because good writing doesn't require a ring light.
She lives in the United States and writes in stolen moments, parking lots, and the suspicious quiet after everyone's asleep.

I'm not sure what I expected from this, but this wasn't it.
This is a continuation from the first book, Fireflies where we're introduced to the fantastical world that is bridged between our world and the land of the Fae. It takes a good deal of Celtic lore and places it well within the means for us to understand and sort of relate to.
Brigid's life still leaves me aching, she's not really a present character in this book but she does go through trials and tribulations. She's forced to watch on the outskirts of a past life and suffer through it all over again.
Declan and Ruad are the main characters in this book, they are both caught in their own internal and external conflicts. But together they are able to find the middle ground for their particular struggles.
That cliffhanger though, always bringing me back for more. Definitely a good read and if you haven't read the first one, DO IT.

Wow, what a great treat. It is so well written that I end up reading it from cover to cover in one night.
