Nora Roberts
A new epic of love and war among gods and humans, from Nora Roberts—the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Awakening.The world of magick and the world of man have long been estranged from one another. But some can walk between the two—including Breen Siobhan Kelly. She has just returned to Talamh, with her friend, Marco, who’s dazzled and disoriented by this realm—a place filled with dragons and faeries and mermaids (but no WiFi, to his chagrin). In Talamh, Breen is not the ordinary young schoolteacher he knew her as. Here she is learning to embrace the powers of her true identity. Marco is welcomed kindly by her people—and by Keegan, leader of the Fey. Keegan has trained Breen as a warrior, and his yearning for her has grown along with his admiration of her strength and skills.But one member of Breen’s bloodline is not there to embrace her. Her grandfather, the outcast god Odran, plots to destroy Talamh—and now all must unite to defeat his dark forces. There will be losses and sorrows, betrayal and bloodshed. But through it, Breen Siobhan Kelly will take the next step on the journey to becoming all that she was born to be.

"I didn’t care for this book in the series.Some of the characters were so over the top that it felt very fake.It almost felt someone else was writing this book."

"browsing through my library online catalog and came across this book and was unable to pause. Although at times some instances I wondered about a character or two but remembered I have a bit more experience then the character so it was a bit hard not to get distracted. Good listen and light and geared for early 20's population sure."
"3.8 stars<br/>Some things I liked, some things I didn’t<br/>Didn’t: <br/>- instalove between Marco and Brian, who we really don’t know much about <br/>- confusing and unexplained magic<br/>- a lot of explanations and scenes for mundane things Breen was doing (eg. morning routine) that was skippable and uninteresting <br/>- waaaay too sentimental and repetitive with the mushy stuff<br/>Did:<br/>- good relationships<br/>-good drama with Shana<br/>- growth in strength with Breen<br/>- nice imagery (though Talahm seems pretty farmish/country, even the capital)"
