I was given this book to read for an honest review. I'm a total sucker for love stories and this one really got to me. It was hard for me to read.. Not because it was a bad book, far from it, it was because I could sense what was going to Happen and wanted to prolong my torture apparently. I didn't want the story to come to an end but as all great books doI had to read on. I had to know what became of Zara and Kai.In this book of Fallada the faerie Queen Adrah tells the story of two lovers and how they're paths came to cross.It's about Zara, a young human girl who never felt right in the human world and longed to cross the iron gates into Fallada. Zara was drawn to Fallada but she did not know why yet. She's always felt this strong connection to it and everything within.Kai was a young elf who was pretty much a loner. He had a huge family but felt more at peace when he was alone in the woods in his perfect house in the trees. On a hunt after a deer, he happened to see a figure beyond the gate. As Kai moved closer he saw with his own two eyes the most beautiful creature he'd ever seen. This was the start of it all. This is how Zara and Kai's paths intertwined and their destinies became one.What story would be complete without an evil Queen. Queen Eranna, very beautiful but also very vain and becoming heartless with every breath she takes. She wants nothing more than to be the most beautiful woman in Fallada forever. She hates the worthless humans that share her world and doesn't understand why the faerie Queen Adrah loves them so. On her search for immortality and power she will let no one person or creature stand in her way.This second book totally stands up to the first and I'm not very patiently waiting for the next to come out. I'm already a huge fan of Alicia Michaels and will recommend her stories to anyone who asks.
