I received an advanced copy of Immortal Promise from Magen in exchange for an honest review and I honestly loved it.The Immortal Heart series revolves around a group of Immortal Light Fae Warriors as they navigate their lives - finding love, saving innocents, dealing with criminals of their own kind and trying to prevent war with the Dark Fae. In Immortal Blood we are introduced to this amazing world.  Immortal Craving brings the reader deeper into the conflicts within the world.  Immortal Promise takes the reader to yet another portion of this amazing world.In Immortal Promise, McMinimy draws from the characters' internal conflicts first introduced in previous stories.  I love that McMinimy doesn't give up on her characters.  She continues following their little quirks, bad habits and developing abilities through each new book.  Bain's undeniable hatred of vampires gets addressed in just the right way.  Izzy's new abilities lead her into some very … interesting situations - she's by far one of the coolest female characters I've come across lately.  Kale and Katarina's relationship continues to grow.Strong, solid, responsible Lothar is not a character I would ever guess would have to put his own emotions on display.  The warrior with the ability to channel the emotions of others suddenly finds himself stranded with the one woman whose heart he wishes to read and can't.  Holly - light fae turned vampire - left her life behind centuries ago to escape an overprotective brother, uncaring mother and Light Fae leader sister.  Little does she realize what she had left behind.Lothar and Holly find themselves stranded somewhere that no one can find and only they can earn their way out of.  These two are so right for each other it's almost wrong.  His strengths are her weaknesses and she is able to put him in his place with just a look.  I love McMinimy's characters for just that reason - they are so realistically written that you quickly find yourself believing you could come across them on the street one day.  I've already accepted that I'm lost to the world of the Immortal Heart so please don't try to rescue me.Immortal Promise is the perfect combination of love story, action/adventure and family drama/sitcom.  A true must read.Happy Reading :-)
