Niamh Farren has been burdened by knowledge for most of her life. As one of seven fae children born into the human world with the ability to open the gate to Faerie, Niamh’s mission is to guide her fae brethren to do what’s right. Because Niamh has seen what will happen to the human world if she does not protect the gate. Throughout the years, she’s traveled the world with her brother Ronan, using her psychic visions to find the fae-borne and convince them to stay on the path that will keep the gate from opening. She has sacrificed much … but when she loses her brother to the mission, Niamh begins to lose herself.
For nearly one hundred and fifty years, werewolf Kiyo has wandered the planet as a lost soul. Cursed with immortality, he spends his awful eternity as a mercenary for hire. When the powerful Fionn Mór confides the truth about the existence of Faerie and hires Kiyo to protect one of the fae-borne, he accepts the challenge out of boredom, not heroism. Yet Niamh is unexpected in every way the werewolf can possibly imagine.
Guarding Niamh from her enemies is nowhere near as challenging as protecting the fae woman from herself. If Kiyo is to succeed, he must help Niamh find herself again, and not just for her sake. Ignoring the fierce connection between them may no longer be an option. A new enemy is rising and threatening to rip open the gate between worlds. To remind Niamh of who she really is, Kiyo must make the choice to lower his defenses and give into their bond. Or safeguard his own heart … and in doing so lead the human world to the brink of war.
I absolutely love this series!
I used to love paranormal romance a good few years back, but it kind of fell off for a while.
When I saw Samantha Young was publishing an adult paranormal romance series I couldn’t wait to delve in. And I’ve been hooked since book 1. It's really made me fall back in love with paranormal romance.
I couldn’t wait for the third installment and it was as amazing as I hoped.
Psychic faerie meets cynical immortal werewolf- it’s a romance waiting to happen.
I’d really recommend reading this series in order as characters from the previous books do pop up and context would help.
The romance between Niamh and Kiyo was beautifully built up and I found myself unable to put the book down, desperate to see them figure out they were meant for each other.
Niamh is a sweet character that has been tortured by losing someone close to her, but shes's tried to help her fellow fae, and Kiyo has been hired to look out for her, and he's a delightfully grumpy werewolf.
Over all I loved the romance between them and I cannot wait for the next book. I feel a lot has now been set up for the next book in the series and I need it in my hands.
The series is a must read!
5/5 stars!
