They are half witch, half human as well, but more human than witch because they were raised not to use their magic. Lena sees that Emma is not fully changed to the dark side and offers to help her feels her emotions again. However, the dark witches are still searching for Emma. They will not quit until she is dead. How far will her new friends go to save her from her fated life?I GIVE THIS BOOK: 5 StarsI found this book to be absolutely delightful.While I read this book in one sitting, it took awhile. That is because I devoured each and every word. The story of Emma's journey was captivating from page one. Never was there a dull moment as the story filled the pages without becoming too busy or unbelievable.As Emma is trying to learn and feel the six emotions, the reader feels them as well...plus more. It is very easy to hand your heart over to this story; to imagine yourself as Emma  and the man you love as Finn. They way love is described, the backbone of fairy tales, is the collaboration of all my secret girl fantasies.The only con - I wish there was a chapter at the end that explained why Finn and Lana were so close.Until next time, live life one page at a time!
