First Thoughts: I was so excited to read this book, not only because Michele is so amazing and I love her to bits, but because it feels like FOREVER since I have read a YA book and I didn’t realize how much I missed it until I read this one!The Story: This book picks up right where Never Let You Fall left off, which Skye running away from Xander, although it is for a noble reason (she is of course protecting Xander) it may have been slightly irresponsible. HOWEVER, this irresponsibility introduces us to my new book boyfriend Nickoli sooo I totally forgive her.The Characters: All I want to do is talk about my love for Nickoli is that ok? No? Fine…Skye really came found herself in this book, she has obviously bought into this whole ‘She will unite the kingdom’ business which is good because well FINALLY! She also became a true leader in this book as well. She embraced the role she was meant to have and although there were bumps in the road she took everything that was being thrown at her and owned it.Xander, he was my book boyfriend in Never Let You Fall but… he has been replaced my by devotion to Nickoli. Its not that I don’t like Xander, I totally do, I just don’t think he is the perfect match for Skye anymore… my eyes have been opened to the possibility of his role being something other then the love of her life (although I totally do not question his love for her) I just think its more that he hasn’t known anything else so its almost like he is obligated to love Skye and be with her forever.FINALLY!! Let’s get to my new book boyfriend shall we?Nickoli, he is arrogant, cocky, loyal, sweet, super smoking hot, and a prince, I mean he is PERFECT! Yes he is misguided in his beliefs, but it appears that most everyone in Tyalbrook is, so that is easily forgiven… did I mention he was hot? Oh and he is super sweet! Like I mean SWOON! If I had my way he is the one that would end up with Skye forever, I think they are perfect together. He lets Skye be her own person and although he protects her he also knows that she can protect herself. That right there puts him number one on my list!Final Thoughts: Jeez did I ever miss YA! Its just so sweet and not filled with hot sweatiness naked time (although I totally love those books too!) This book was a great second book in the series and sets up SO much to happen! I know Michele is working on a few other super awesome books (one that is yet untitled but trust me when I tell you it is going to be quite possibly her best book to date) but I am really excited for book 3 in this series because I have so many questions that I need answers to! Mainly… does she pick Nickoli or Xander???!!!!
