Review: Frankie's time to Shine!
Rating: 5 out of 5
Date: 10 6, 2013
When I first "met" Frankie as a child in an Through Time - Whiplash, I knew there was more than meets the eye with her.  Since she was just a child, I figured she would play a key role and then sort of pop in and out throughout the series.  I was beyond excited to see that she got her own story years later in the storyline.  Thankfully, it was not years later in real life because I am so not patient enough for that.  The best part, this meant Graely.  Yes, I just swooned over a Dark Prince.  Talk about a "bad boy" who sort of kind of isn't even though he soooo really is.  Sorry, just swooned again ;) .Once again, Claudy has created this amazing fantasy with action, a bit of mystery, and a reunion of so many of my favorite characters, while focusing on Frankie and Graely.  As strong and powerful as Frankie has always been, she really grew into this amazingly intelligent, strong, and powerful woman while still holding onto a bit of her innocence of the world.  Graely should have been a lost cause between his "father" and spending so many years with his "brothers".  Yet, somehow he becomes more then his genetics and history.  I love that this is not a "Love makes the bad boy good" story and that we started to see that Graely was starting to become the fae he wanted to be years before this installment began.  It made their love story so much more.I am getting dangerously close to giving spoilers away, so I should quit while I am ahead.  I LOVED this book.  If you have not read the other Through Time books, you will probably not enjoy it nearly as much as if you had, so I would start there.  The first book is currently free, so that is a great place to start.I was given a copy of this book.
