Summary:

Do the Fey exist? In Grace’s world they do, but she doesn’t know it yet.
An unsuspecting Grace thinks she is utterly ordinary ignoring the fact that odd things happen to her daily. She has always felt like she did not belong anywhere or to anyone. She constantly lets others rule her feelings, drive her inner anger, and squelch her capabilities. Yet she sees impossible things happen, seems to make them happen unintentionally, and spends the majority of her teenage life trying to prove to others that she is not a freak.
Ian is a clever quiet dark-haired boy who always seems to mysteriously save her at just the right time from her darkest moments. And does he know how Grace feels about him? Will she ever admit it aloud?
Then one Halloween night, on her eighteenth birthday, she finally finds out the truth. A prophecy. Before she was born, her destiny was chosen naming her to end a war. A war she has no idea existed nor how to influence. She enters a world hidden just outside the real one. Was it all laid out, or does she have a choice?
Grace seems to think so even still. And Ian gives her the choice to walk away from him and his secrets. But does she want to walk away? Ian offers much more than just himself, the son of the Seelie Court queen. He offers her a path into his world where appearances are deceiving and others are trying to woo her away. Her world by birth. Creatures. And they are not the tiny winged beings from her childhood. They call themselves many names. Fey. Fair Folk. Fairies. And they say she is to be their new queen. But the enemies who want her to fail are closer than she thinks. Much closer. Will Grace be able to tell friend from foe? Even ones who have been beside her for years?
And yet all of this was her choice? What will Grace choose? Who will Grace choose?

Acknowledgements

Oscar Wilde once said, “How can a woman be expected to be happy with a man who insists on treating her as a perfectly
normal
human being.” We’re not!

Grace’s story has always been in my head. Forever have I been in the top of the tower waiting for my prince or wandering in the forest escaping the big bad wolf. My obsession with fairy tales has never been tapered and will continue to be the guidelines by which I live my life by. Life is one big fairy tale and living it any other way is just not in my blood. Nathaniel Hawthorne (1804-1864) the American novelist once said, “Words, so innocent and powerless...when standing in a dictionary, how potent for good or evil they become in the hands of one who knows to combine them.”

Whitney, mom, Ellen.
