Review of Wilde's Fire (Darkness Falls) by Krystal Wade


Description:

“There is no pain in this death, only peace, knowing I am going to die with the one I love the most.”—Katriona Wilde.

Katriona Wilde has never wondered what it would feel like to have everything she’s ever known and loved ripped away, but she is about to find out. When she inadvertently leads her sister and best friend through a portal into a world she’s dreamed of for six years, she finds herself faced with more than just the frightening creatures in front of her. Kate’s forced to accept a new truth: her entire life has been a lie, and those closest to her have betrayed her. What’s worse, she has no control over her new future, and it’s full of magic and horrors from which nightmares are made. Will Kate discover and learn to control who she really is in time to save the ones she loves, or will all be lost?


Review:

This book was awesome.  I was skeptical as I started it.  I mean, a boy sleeping in your room with your parents down the hall isn't realistic.  Once the book got rolling though, I became more enchanted with it.

The dreams she had of Arland felt so real yet, impossible.  Then there was Brad, just waiting to swoop in at any point throughout their journey through the woods.  I almost wanted to stamp idiot across Kate's face for not figuring his feelings for her out at this point in their relationship.

Then she meets Arland and all the things thought impossible.  He is everything she dreamed and more.  I craved reading more just to see their romance crack and sizzle.  It was steamy in a tame way.

The monsters in this story were unique and creative.  The author weaved a very different story that reminded me of no other story.  I tore through the pages from beginning to end in haste.

The story stopped abruptly but with a satisfying conclusion.  I for one will be counting the days until I get to continue Kate and Arland's story.
