I loved this book so much it was different than any other book with elves I have ever read I thoroughly enjoyed all of the book. I loved the characters so much especially Marbella and Baelen I loved their relationship even with the amount of time they spent apart you would really tell how strong the love between them still was and how nothing could stop it anymore. I also really liked they the characters were not teenagers and everything was more mature. I loved Marbella for her perseverance and the fact she would do anything just so Baelen would live and I still loved her strength of character she makes a great main character. I really loved the plot it takes place seven years after her powers injured the one she loved so she blamed herself for that and now he is back and in the competition for her hand in marriage. The story is so great I really liked the embodiment of the Storm and how that was represented there was so many great things in this story I really liked and am looking forward to more soon.
