I loved the wonderful blend of imagination, mythology, and craft exhibited by author Tessa Stockton.When young Aria hesitates to sing her world awake one day, a handsome and determined winged being arrives charged with her punishment. Il Bora possesses the power to take away the sunlight and water her world needs to survive, as well as her song. Instead, Il Bora falls for her sweetness and her strength, and is unable to complete his task. Unfortunately for Aria and her new friend, his master does the job. Aria must then search for the one they worship and appease him in order to replenish the stolen resources and regain her song. The journey brings the couple closer together, but will there be a happy ending? Can Aria save her world, sing again, and along the way, find true love?I enjoyed this sweet fantasy romance, and I especially admired the lovely prose and poetic images. Stockton evokes a strong mood throughout, offering readers an intelligent yet heartfelt read. The story grabbed my attention right from the first page, and the action kept me reading.WIND’S ARIA is appropriate for all ages. The love story is timeless as are the themes.Anyone who enjoys fantasy, who loves quest tales, who wants to feel the bloom of first love, will delight in WIND’S ARIA.
