Lianne,  has defeated the Malborn once, but she knows they will be back. People fear her, but she doesn't fear death. Bryden is dead. With him gone, Lianne has lost meaning in life. If she believed it would reunite her with Bryden, she would have committed suicide. As it is, Lianne is stuck in an emotional void.  Her emotions are intense and really come off the page. I could feel the hollowness in Lianne's heart along with the great sorrow she feels over losing her loved one. As though matters couldn't be worse, the physical changes with her loss of color in her eyes and hair remind her constantly of her loss, and she must pretend to be with another guy to protect herself.It isn't as though Chase is a bad guy. He's sweet and caring. A bit pushy at times, yes, but he always acts with Lianne's better interest at heart. With him supporting her, Lianne is able to come out of her shell and again interact with the world around her. She'll never have a love again like the one with Bryden, but she now has a chance to start a new love. And Chase is there for the healing Lianne.Even as she heals, Lianne must find a way to counteract the Malborn, who haven't given up. Despite having had her heart torn to pieces, Lianne is a stubborn girl. She puts her all into all she does, and she'll fight to the death to defend what she believes in. She doesn't fight against the Malborn through normal means. Instead, she wants to find a way to keep them from ever attempting to come back again. I adore this stubborn side to her personality.The Sundering is a easy, quick fantasy read filled with emotion and characters that catch onto your heart.
