Synopsis
Meredith, who hides among humans in Los Angeles, spends unfruitful evenings with the Queen's immortal guards and finds her magical powers evolving in unexpected ways
Review
Meredith Gentry, a mortal whose faerie blood has embroiled her in a race to produce the next heir to the throne of the Unseelie sidhe, finds that she constantly walks a fine line between her duty to her aunt, the Queen of Air and Darkness, and her own desire for a "normal" life. Filled with wild magic and given the gift to transform common faeries into noble sidhe, Meredith also discovers that she possesses other, heretofore unknown magic powers that seem to herald a return of the old gods of the sidhe. The third installment in Hamilton's Meredith Gentry novels (after A Kiss of Shadows and A Caress of Twilight) contains the same sultry eroticism while deepening the interrelationships among the principal characters. Hamilton's compelling storytelling makes this a good choice for libraries owning the series and for fans of adult fantasy tinged with horror
