An amazing tale... I couldnt get enough... I loved following Calli thru her mishaps in magic and seeing her devotion to her new family of good neighbors... Calli has a good heart and I enjoyed my journey with her thru the woods and the banks of the Undine... I hadn't done my research before requesting this ARC and was unfortunate to not have read The Demon Lover, book one. However it didn't matter the author filled me in so much so that I didn't miss a thing. I'm excited to read both The Demon Lover and book 3 The Hallowed Door, when it comes out...
