Description
Forest child they call me. It is within the woods that I find solace and feel the magic of my ancestors. For I am a Druid. One who can trace her roots from the very first to call the Isle of Skye home.
The isle draws many to its magical shores. It drew him. Imposing, bold, and handsome. We fell hard and fast that summer. Then he left with the tide to the city.
I learned to live with the cracks and fissures on my pieced-together heart, the scars only I can feel.
Until the day he walks back into my life asking for a second chance. I yearn to give it to him. How can I not? He’s the only one I’ve ever loved.
The only one I will ever love.
But there is a darkness growing on the isle—a treacherous evil that has targeted him. I’ve lost him once.
I won’t lose him again.
A Druid with a secret past. A man looking for a second chance. Return to Scotland and New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Donna Grant’s Skye Druids, where magic and danger intertwine and a tale of love, sacrifice, and second chances unfolds.

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.
* Voluntarily read and reviewed this. Received a copy from Netgalley *
Loved reading the mesmerizing and spellbinding paranormal story. When Killan comes back to town to reconcile with Ariah, Killan will do anything to win back his love, Ariah, but an evil darkness is after Killan. Read the highly recommended, wonderfully written, and a must read riveting story full of mystery and romance by the phenomenally awesome author, Donna Grant.
Love these Skye Druids! Always waiting for the next one! When Killian decides he made a mistake in leaving the woman he loved to follow his family’s wishes. Ariah has secrets. Secrets that could get them killed.
I received a complimentary copy of this book from NetGalley. The opinions expressed in this review are completely my own. Thank you for allowing me to review
Still of the Night (Skye Druids, #5) by Donna Grant
If you are looking for and edge of your seat fantasy, romantic suspense with tons of action this is the book for you. There is angst, baggage, deception, discovery, mystery, plenty of steam some answers and more questions. The main story revolves around Ariah and Killian with all side stories with all all the friends and a few enemies. We get to a HEA for Ariah and Killian but the story goes on.
Reasons I enjoyed this book:
Romantic Great world building Tear-jerker Wonderful characters Haunting Informative Action-packed Witty Scary Easy-to-read Entertaining Page-turner Happily Ever After Unpredictable Steamy.
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?
