Rating: 5 out of 5 Stars

Back Cover: Faerie can’t lie… or can they? Much has changed since autumn, when Kelley Winslow learned she was Faerie royalty, fell in love with changeling guard Sonny Flannery, and saved New York City from a rampaging Faerie war band. When a terrifying encounter in Central Park sends Kelley tumbling into the Otherworld, her reunion with Sonny is joyful – but cut short. For they’ve been plunged into a game of Faerie deception and wavering allegiances in which the next move could topple a kingdom…or part them forever.

This is the second book in Lesley Livingston’s Faerie trilogy. It takes place almost a year after the end of the last book, Wondrous Strange. Kelley is again in another play at Central Park. But this time Sonny is still in the Otherworld. But trouble seems to follow Kelley wherever she goes and gets attacked. I don’t want to give too much away as this is a great story. I found it a little darker then the first book and can’t wait to see where the story will go from here. I would even say I liked this book more than the first one and can't wait to read the next book, Tempestuous.

Sub Genre: Paranormal Romance; Faeries, Changelings, Magic, Wondrous Strange

Rating: 4 out of 5 Stars

Back Cover: Since the dawn of time, the Faerie have taken… Seventeen-year-old actress Kelly Winslow always thought faeries were just something from childhood stories. Then she meets Sonny Flannery. He’s a changeling – a mortal taken as an infant and raised among Faerie – and within short order he’s turned Kelley’s heart inside out and her life upside down. For Kelley’s beloved Central Park isn’t just a park – it’s a gateway between her ordinary city and the Faerie’s dangerous, bewitching Otherworld. Now Kelley’s eyes are opening not just to the Faerie that surround her, but to the heritage that awaits her… a destiny both wondrous and strange.

This is the first book in the Wondrous Strange trilogy and is a great new take on a story about the Fae. It asks a lot of what ifs. Kelley is more then what she knows. And Sonny soon figures that out. He is drawn to her at first without understanding why. While she is finding out who and what she is she is falling for Sonny. This is such a beautiful telling that shows a great imagination. We get to meet the original Puck from William Shakespeare’s Midsummer Night's Dream. And learn more about the other Fae courts. I truly liked this book and can’t wait to read the next on Darklight.
