** spoiler alert ** Both of the MC irritated me to no end!
Mac was just overly girly and the stereo typical blonde character but she also had the nerve to get mad when Barrons treated her that way.
Barrons would be the guy you'd kill your daughter before you let them near him!
Other than that, the book was really good.
I loved the brutality of Alina's murder and I also loved how the Fae were portrayed in this book. The Seelie were not shown as the "good" Fae and Fae Royalty was something to be afraid of, no matter which of the Fae group it belonged to.
Would be interesting to find out what Barrons is.
On to the next one!

Vanya D. YA Story Teller Reviews heh, why 3 stars though?


Midu Hadi cuz of Mac and Barrons :-p


Vanya D. YA Story Teller Reviews Okay, I'm gonna have to take your word for it since I haven't read this series yet.


Midu Hadi you haven't? How have you stayed under Di's radar so far? lol


Vanya D. YA Story Teller Reviews shhhh, she doesn't know!! LOL
Besides, I've got no time right now. I've got a ton of review books waiting for me. And honestly, if I did have the time, I'd be reading something different ;)


Midu Hadi hehehe i'm so going to get you in trouble. Let her come online!


Midu Hadi hey hows the writing goin?


Vanya D. YA Story Teller Reviews hahahahah, go ahead, Di's a buddy, she won't skin me for not reading Fever LOL

The writing is going slow, since I've been working these past 2 days :( But hope to be able to pick it up this afternoon. I'm halfway done with the second chapter of Dawn's story. And I know what will be happening in the other half, so that's good, right? :) I hope to finish it today so I could revise and edit tomorrow and post it :)


Midu Hadi That's good, then! :-D


Vanya D. YA Story Teller Reviews yeah, if the plan succeeds LOL

Midu Hadi *fingers & toes crossed*


Vanya D. YA Story Teller Reviews I know, mine are too :)


Vanya D. YA Story Teller Reviews I really want to see where the characters would go from here. You'd think I would know, since I'm the author, but nooooooo it doesn't work that way. I let my characters do what they must, not what I want them to do :)

Midu Hadi I think that's the way it is supposed to work, isn't it?


Vanya D. YA Story Teller Reviews Not always. Some authors just write whatever they want. But I can't. When I do that it feels wrong, and then I have to go back and re-write

Midu Hadi Wow, that hard?


Vanya D. YA Story Teller Reviews Not hard, but it's extra work. So, I've learned that I just have to listen to my characters and not make them act against their nature. Otherwise the book feels forced and unrealistic.


Nicole You have to hate Barrons first, it's like law, later it's a love-hate thing, then love ;-)

Midu Hadi done with the second book..hope he improves in the next one.


Nicole lmao, not sure.... they all blend together for me. I'm not sure if I loved the series during reading any one specific book or just feel totally in love with it during the last.

Midu Hadi i get that..it was the same for me with Curran in Kate Daniels series.


Diana (Mrs. Barrons) Oh Midu.... I am disappointed in your review. I hope you give the next one a chance. I wasn't thrilled with DarkFever either. Mac annoyed me so much I almost quit there, but I was encouraged to continue, so I'm encouraging you.

Vanya, see now I'm on to you. Will be watching...

message 24: by Midu (new) - rated it 3 stars

Midu Hadi will do,Di!


Vanya D. YA Story Teller Reviews Oh no! *cowers in fear* Just don't hit me with the book till I read it! LOL It's on my TBR list anyway. I'm just not sure how long till I actually get to read it...


message 26: by Midu (new) - rated it 3 stars

Midu Hadi hehehe told ya! i'm a snitch!


Vanya D. YA Story Teller Reviews Oh, shush! LOL She wasn't all that bad though, I thought she'd start PM-ing me to read the books LOL This is mild :DDDD
