I received this book from the author in exchange for a honest review.My Thoughts:  The story was written in 1st POV.  I am not a big fan of this in books I read.  I can't get into the story and the constant use of I bothers me.  It was also sometimes hard for me to tell who it was that was talking.  That being said, the storyline was good.Background:  Earth and Saskia are parallel worlds, but time on Earth moves slower.  There is a portal that is used to go back and forth between the worlds.The Story:  Marta is a servant and a gardener.  She is pregnant and secretly in love with King Morrick.  King Morrick is married to a truly evil woman Queen Bellona.  Marta feels she has no choice, but to go to Earth and build a new life for herself.  She marries and settles down with her husband and two children Sarajane and Jessica.  Eventually, Marta is tracked down and forcibly taken back to Saskia by Queen Bellona's henchmen.  Eventually, the king rescues her and hides her for safety reasons.The book then switches back to Earth.  Sarajane is a normal teenager.  Years ago, her mother went missing and has never been found.  A lot of the background concerning her friends and picking out a dress was unnecessary to the plot.Sarajane is going to a school dance and it is there that she meets Tristan.  Tristan has been dispatched by her mother and father to bring her back to Saskia.  She is reluctant to go so they kidnap her.Once there, she is reacquainted with her mother.  She meets her father for the first time.  They both explain the situation to her and she takes it pretty well.  She is part immortal.The rest of the book deals with Sarajane getting used to her new life and other unforeseen difficulties that arise.
