Synopsis:
Morgan Sparks and Cam Browne are a match made in heaven. They've been best friends since birth, they tell each other everything, and oh yeah--they're totally hot for each other.
But a week before their joint Sweet Sixteen bash, everything changes. Cam's awkward cousin Pip comes to stay, and Morgan is stunned when her formerly perfect boyfriend seems to be drifting away.
When Morgan demands answers, she's shocked to discover the source of Cam's distance isn't another girl--it's another world. Pip claims that Cam is a fairy. No, seriously. A fairy. And now his people want Cam to return to their world and take his rightful place as Fairy King.
Determined to keep Cam with her, Morgan plots to fool the fairies. But as Cam continues to change, she has to decide once and for all if he really is her destiny, and if their "perfect" love can weather an uncertain future.
Excerpt:
"Why do you have a wand? Are you a magician? Is Dawn your assistant? And you made her invisible?"
"No, she's my guide."
"Your . . . guide? Like a tour guide? For wherever you're being taken?"
"Right."
"Okay. So where are you being taken?"
"I'm not sure. To wherever it is that fairies go."
"You mean, like, Middle Earth or something?"
My Thoughts:
I probably shouldn't have read two books about fairies so soon after one another. However, I do have to say that the writing in this book was so witty. I found myself laughing at the one-liners that were ever present. Even with the fairy stuff.
I thought this book was going to have a sequel, because the ending didn't feel like an ending. I have so many questions still. Is Morgan really a psychic? Or was that some power she gained from being in close proximity to Cam all her life? Is Cam okay as a fairy? Was what they had REALLY true love? Or is what Morgan and Pip have true love? Or does she fall in love with someone else?
Everything seemed to not make a whole lot of sense as I read through the story. Although there was the impending deadline of Cam having to return, and Dawn being a vicious little vixen, I really didn't feel a sense of urgency for the situation. Pip seemed to be handling rejection nicely. And the love triangle wasn't very strong, at all. On the one hand, Pip talked about the fairy he fell in love with, but then he also talked about seeing Morgan. So--was she just a consolation prize? He just knew that Cam had stolen what was his so he went to reclaim it?
Like I said, a lot more questions than answers.
It was a fun read, though. The jokes were hilarious and the love story was sweet. I just wanted something more.
Recommendation: Hit up the library.
