I had been wanting to read this book for quite a while and was excited to finally sit down and read it. In the end it just wasn't for me; I read the first 100 pages or so and stopped. I didn't like the characters, thought the writing was choppy, and didn't enjoy the story or the pace. It wasn't awful but it also wasn't something I wanted to invest more time in.

The story alternates between Audra (a sylph sworn to protect Vane) and Vane (a teen who survived a horrible tornado which killed his parents). I didn't like either character. Audra comes off as whiny and overly self-sacrificing, while making the same mistakes over and over. Vane comes off as cocky.

Supposedly, there are evil anti-sylphs that Audra is trying to protect Vane from until he comes into his powers. I found the whole story a bit silly and boring and decided to give it up.

Overall this wasn't my thing. I didn't really like anything about this book. I think it was written okay and some YA readers who like a lot of corny romance and cocky characters in their stories might enjoy this. However, it wasn't for me and I won't be continuing the series.
