I'm reading this because it got such great reviews on GRs. But I must say that I'm not impressed. Aislinn is finally falling in love with Seth when Keenan, the Faerie Summer King, finds her and convinced that she is his queen, he stalks her unmercifully. She's clearly not interested in him (or any of the Fey for that matter) yet she is drawn to him against her will. I think faerie enchantment is just another form of rape. No worse, because you "think" you actually want it. How can you know if your feelings are real if it starts this way?

I didn't like Keenan right from the beginning. He tried to hard to be human; his language was stilted and old fashioned; he was too forceful and instantly enamored. I just wasn't believable and I just didn't buy it. That said, I did enjoy the ending but won't be continuing the series.
