Sydlynn Hayle is not just any witch, she is half demon,host to the spirit of the Sidhe princess Shaylee and also the daughter of the Hayle Coven leader. This book takes off where the last one left off, her would be boyfriend Quaid is off risking his life to get revenge, Uncle Frank is now a former shadow of his happy self due to the Dumont family nearly killing him and her Grams is plotting revenge against Olivia Dumont on a daily basis. Her dad is still mortal and her best friend Alison is a total train wreck after being in the thrall of the Dumont brothers and Syd had yet to go back to high school for another year. There is always lots of action this series and this book is no exception. Syd is left in charge of the coven as her mother is off chasing Gram who has left to seek retribution on the Dumont family and Syd is finding it hard to instil loyalty in the rest of the coven. Celeste is up to her old tricks and trying to wrestle power away from her mother in her absence, Liam the new boy at school is cute and she is feeling drawn to him and then there is the haunting dreams of foreboding where Shaylee is trying to warn her that something bad is about to happen. What with dealing with her coven, her sister Meira going off the rails and becoming one of the "beautiful people", life is far from ordinary. To top it all off, Syd learns there is Gate and she has to find it or the fate of the Sidhe and the world is about to get a whole lot worse. Then there is the fact that she has feelings for Liam but Quaid is still a no show, should she wait for him or move on with her life, high school was never mean't to be this stressful. A great family series, no real violence or sex but good old fashioned fun that I would let my nieces read without question.
