Author Donna Grant never ceases to amaze me with the wide variety of storylines and characters in her book series. The Skye Druids series is no exception with it's fast paced and interweaving plots that keeps the reader on the edge of their seat and constantly guessing how the book will end.

Chapter 1 starts on the Isle of Skye with the main female character, Ariah running in fear from the unknown. Instantly the reader is thrown into wanting to know what is scaring her and why.

Chapter 2 introduces a lost love from Ariah's youth and the main male character, Killian who is seeking forgiveness and a new beginning while trying to keep Ariah and himself alive.

The next chapters unfold with instant drama and turns and twists as once again evil tries to eliminate Skye Druids with a vengeance. What I like about the plot is the authors continued use of characters from previous books to this series and other series that creates an eclectic family and many interacting plots.

This author has a mind that never stops and I admire how she keeps every series fresh and interesting. I did stay up to the wee hours of the night finishing this book in one sitting because it was that good.

What I got from this book is that sometimes the freedom from past mistakes and a future you will love comes with a heavy price that not everyone is willing to chance. Are you?

Skye is the mysterious island of the Druids. This community has been under attack and the war is still ongoing. This time the forest child is under attack along with the love of her life. These series are interconnected but this one is my favorite and it’s just keeps getting better and more complex with each new story. Just when you get one answer three more crop up. I’m eagerly awaiting the next book in this amazing series.

I did not want this book to end. It was such an awesome read! The trouble on Skye seems to be worsening. The big bad just out of reach. Ariah is a calm centered druid. Her peace is shattered when Killian returns. Together they face so much but love conquers all. I can't wait for the next book in the series.

Ariah has been called a child of the forest for as long as she can remember. The woods is where she feels calm and the magic. She owns a little shop on the Isle of Skye where it draws people to its magical shores. This is where she met Killian, a guy just visiting. Killian and Ariah fall in love but when Killian’s family pressures him to come back he does. Years later Killian has returned to win back the love of his life. There is something evil on the isle and Killian feels as if someone or something is watching him. Ariah doesn’t want Killian around but when he is gravely injured, the walls around her heart crumble and she realizes she doesn’t want to live without him. But the evil presence might just take out one of them before they can live happily ever after.

I loved this story but there is a slight cliffhanger, well I don’t know if you’d call it a cliffhanger but left some things unanswered. Action. Sex. Magic. Two people getting a second chance at love. I can’t wait to see what happens next.
