PineLight #2
TigerLily
Author Jillian Peery takes you back to the magical world of PineLight in the heart-pounding sequel, TigerLily.
They were mortal enemies. And I loved them both.
It was my curse, an unending punishment, and a waste of my heart. Finn and Edmund were a part of me, running through my bloodstream like sweet adrenaline, keeping me alive. All of our past, present, and future intertwined like an ever-growing grapevine. Both were forbidden, but my heart didn’t care. It would only be a matter of time before these two passions ripped me apart.

I won this book in the give away and so far it is very interesting how the writter captivates the moods of the characters and the symbolism in the littleist of things is truely amazing. Clara the main character in one that many people can relate to and one others would envy. The adventrous tycoon that blows through her life has her choosing between what she thought to be good and pure, and the truth. Her decisions lead her along a path where the turn of events would suprise the readers fallowing her on the journey.

If every person is born with two sides, one good, one bad, is it possible that each side could love a different heart?"
The second time around is sweeter!
In book 1 we met Clarabella Callahan and learned about the world of Everest. We discovered that she was not only a guardian, but the guardian that will put an end to the evil that unleashed.We also met Edmund, a not so good guy and Finn the king of Everest, the kingdom in which Clara and her family live and the love of Clara's life. And although, I enjoyed Pinelight I didn't love it.
In book 2 we pick up a while after the end of Pinelight. Clara is mourning the loss of the two most important men in her life, Finn and her father. One lost because of destiny and another at the hand of the dark side. When she finds out that her father is alive she decides to go looking for him in the Lost World. There she is rescued by Edmund from the dangers of the waters. Although she hates Edmund because of his betrayal in book 1 Clara little by little begins to see the truth behind him. The man behind the mask is not what he seemed.
As Edmund and Clara travel together to find the truth behind her destiny and find a way to rescue her father something happens. Clara falls in love with the man that she once hated. But falling in love is not logical for Clara because there will always be Finn.
Finn comes looking for Clara and thinks he is rescuing her from Edmund, the traitor. He agrees to help Clara continue her journey to find her father and to vanquish the new evil threat. The spawn of Victor, Erik. As they travel to Zyon to recover the land and finish off Erik Clara fights the feelings she has for Finn. A King could never marry a Guardian. The King of Everest is destined to unite with the Queen of Zyon, which is Kalani, the girl her father rescued from Zy when Victor attacked it. Finn is forbidden and so Clara tries to deal with the pain of loving him in quiet. All the while having Finn protect her from getting killed.
There's a battle. There's a loss of a friend. There's a win and conquering of the kingdom. The loss of a loved one. There's a love acknowledged. Two loves. Both forbidden. There's a trial with a surprising interruption...
Tigerlily was a great read! I felt just as confused as Clara did between Edmund and Finn. And at this moment I still do. On one hand we have the mystery but loving ways of Edmund. On the other the sweet and caring love of Finn. What's a girl to do? I have no freaking idea...lol...and that's what makes me love this book. Its hard to find a book where both love interest are swoon-worthy and Jillian has hit the mark. I can't wait to see where this leads and how it will all wrap up. I laughed, cried, screamed in anger and smiled throughout this book.
If you haven't checked out the Pinelight series do yourself a favor and pick it up! Enter a new world. I dare you. :-)

I am very proud of my wife for finishing her second book in the PineLight Series "TigerLily" I am also amazed to see the growth she has made from her first book to her second. "TigerLily once again took me on an adventure. One of the most enjoyable things I love about her writing is her detail. I feel as though I am walking side by side with the charaters as they go through each adventure.
This book answered a lot of questions for me and I believe the third instalment will continue to answer more. I love the story and their were many twist and turns that made me just say WOW, that is amazing.
If you like adventure and love stories with twist this is the book for you. Congratulations sweetheart, I am so proud of you!

Just finished! So amazing! I have been dying for this book to come out ever since I finished reading Pinelight! I love how this story really goes into the character's background and how it explains Clara's purpose. I don't want to give too much away, but I must say that the love/hate tension between Edmund and Clara got my blood racing! I love how there is more of a love triangle and tons of romance! Can't wait for the third installment to be published. :) I'll definitely be recommending this book to my friends!

Whew! Tigerlily was just as exciting and breathtaking as Pine Light! The drama and action started right from the beginning and held me in thrall to the very end! Can't wait to find out what happens next!

"I wish for anything that I could be inside your mind, to know every thought you are thinking. I know it must be a beautiful place," he said.Finn, I don't even remember if I liked you in the first book, but your words melted my heart.
But oh, my poor dear Edmund.

This was a Good Reads First Reads book giveaway. Thank you so much for allowing me to read this book. I liked the plot and story line. This book is written in such a way that I felt as if I did not miss anything by not reading the first book of the series. But, now I will be reading the first book to see how it all started. These characters are fascinating, and I could feel the love between Edmund and Clara and Finn and Clara. This book has the right amount of suspense, drama, and action needed in order to keep the reader entertained. I loved the ending. It did leave me wanting more. I hope there will be a third book, as I am curious as to what happens to Finn and Clara.

This is book 2 of the Pine Light Series and though it mostly stood on its own..I TRULY wish I had read book one first. It is a story of two loves..can we truly love two people..in the same way? And which one wins out? It is a story that will tug at your heart..and have you going back and forth on who is the better and who should be set aside.
I received this book from Goodreads.com.

2.5 stars. The concept is interesting but it feels like something is missing. It's almost there.
