Synopsis:


When Wendy Everly first discovers the truth about herself—that she’s a changeling switched at birth—she knows her life will never be the same. Now she’s about to learn that there’s more to the story…

She shares a closer connection to her Vittra rivals than she ever imagined—and they’ll stop at nothing to lure her to their side. With the threat of war looming, her only hope of saving the Trylle is to master her magical powers—and marry an equally powerful royal. But that means walking away from Finn, her handsome bodyguard who’s strictly off limits…and Loki, a Vittra prince with whom she shares a growing attraction.

Torn between her heart and her people, between love and duty, Wendy must decide her fate. If she makes the wrong choice, she could lose everything, and everybody, she’s ever wanted…in both worlds.




Ahh, another brilliant book by Amanda Hocking! I absolutely loved it! I cannot wait to read the third installment in this awesome series.

I love everything that Wendy finds out in this book. And I especially love the love triangle that is unfolding. It was definitley intense reading Finn's moods and reactions to certain things and you begin to learn the reasoning behind Wendy's mothers actions and why she seems so cold hearted and distant. It almost makes you feel sorry for her. Almost.

Then we learn about who her dad really is. Not that I can say it was a shocker, I had it figured out by the end of the first book, but the way everything plays out leaves you wondering which option and life will she ultimately choose?

I love how vivid the detailing is with the description of the fights, and surroundings. It makes you feel as if you are right there and the emotions? I can say at times I felt like I was Wendy and I was the one trying to figure things out.

Like I said, I simply can't wait to read the third book in this trilogy. So far the books just seem to keep getting better so I can only imagine how great the last one will be!
