Magical and seductive, this captivating story weaves together Scottish folklore, fae, and witchcraft.
The world building was beautiful, as was the description of fae in their element and the different types of magic and witchcraft that has been passed down through generations of Morgan women. I loved learning about Faye's family history as well as the village where she has resided her entire life (and her ancestors before her lived). It was incredibly interesting learning about the fae, how to interact with them and how fae and humans are tied together.
Unfortunately, I struggled with the romance however am hoping it gets better in the next book. There is a love triangle which I'm completely fine with, except I have no clue who to root for because both MMCs fell flat for me. There is no real connection between Faye and Rav (a human) beyond being attracted to each other at first sight. I was hoping for them to get to know each other a bit more but for various reasons they did not. I'm probably a little bit more interested in Faye and Finn's (a fae) storyline in the next book as Finn's moral compass is questionable at the moment but I would love to see them develop in the next book.
There is politics and an ancient prophecy and of course Faye is at the centre of it all. I'm really looking forward to how this plays out in the next book as well!

Faye Morgan, a Scottish witch descended from a long line of witches who respect and honor Faeries, casts a love spell and gets more than she bargained for in the mysterious Finn Beatha. But is Finn the only one summoned by her spell? And is he too good to be true?
This book is a mix of genres: romance, fantasy, and paranormal with dark elements interwoven. The witchcraft and Scottish setting are captivating. Once we arrive in the land of Faerie, the setting becomes even more intriguing. Faye’s character is well developed, as well as her family and female friends.
The MMCs felt flat. Both relationships involved insta lust, which makes sense with a hot Faerie but was odd with Faye’s human partner, Rav. There was little relationship development and Faye constantly ghosting Rav was frustrating. I was not expecting two MMCs or for the FMC to have sex with them both on page. There is dubcon in the form of magical influence over the FMC (and maybe Rav) that makes her act in a way she otherwise would not. But it’s faeries and the author makes it very clear that they are not bound by human morality. Those elements didn’t turn me off, but others might find them objectionable so be warned.
I enjoyed the story from the beginning. Especially learning about Faye, her magic, and her family history. After the love spell, the story got more hectic including odd pacing and repetitive descriptions. I kept going though because I was invested enough to want to know how it ended, but I’m not sure that I would continue the series.
Thanks to Kennedy Kerr, Second Sky, and NetGalley for providing me with an ARC, which allowed me to read the book and voluntarily provide an unbiased review.
