Abby is an ordinary girl haunted by dreams of an ivory castle, blood-thirsty monsters, and a striking stranger. Working as a babysitter for a family of mythology lovers in wealthy Newcastle Beach, California, she struggles to define herself among the elite class while trying to make sense of her strange visions. Upon meeting David, the doppelgänger of the mysterious young man in her dreams, Abby’s life is changed forever.
Encountering the queen of Cai Terenmare, a magical kingdom in a parallel world, Abby learns of an evil lord hell-bent on usurping the throne, the murder of Cai Terenmare’s king, the Solas Beir, and the kidnapping of the Solas Beir’s infant son.
As the kingdom struggles to endure, the queen shows Abby the full extent of her destiny. She must convince her mysterious crush, David, that he is the lost heir. While braving attacks from the dark lord’s sadistic minions, David must realize his true identity and return to Cai Terenmare to claim his throne before time runs out, lest the evil that was temporarily locked away be unleashed, threatening to destroy both the kingdom and all of humanity.
My Review
Wow at first it I thought it was a little weird how things started off, but then the story lines starting to make more since once the characters we're mixing with each other more. Let me just say off hand first I totally am happy that David Corbin and Abby Brown were able to be together. Heck after all the dreams she was having of him I'm surprised it took as long as it did.
Abby has a best friend named Jon who is in love with her but he just seems like a player. In the past they have been together but I think that during the story Jon realizes that it's time for him to let Abby go. Which he does the night of the Autumn Ball when David finds out who he really is. I was shocked about how Abby went about telling him about his mother Eulakia and the Sign of the Throne. I really enjoyed the characters and how each character had a purpose in the story they all just came together I haven't read to many stories like that.
The author really knew how to keep me turning the page. Although the chapters seem really long they all make since. It was well written and for the most part written for anyone from 13 and up. I really enjoyed reading it. I can say that I really enjoyed Abby's journey to bring David home and the destiny she was up to do. Makes her a stronger person. If I knew how to rate things on my blog I would for sure give this book a 4 star review. It deserves that. I just hope the next person enjoys it like I have.
