Captivating! Natalie @ BookLoversLife What an intense and heartbreaking read. I finished this a week ago and had to take that length of time to gather my thoughts.First off, let's take a moment to stare at that gorgeous cover!! Isn't it stunning. Even before you read the blurb, you will want to read this. Lol. Anyway, back to the review.I loved this book, though it did break my heart numerous times.Character wise, we have a lot of them but I'll focus on the main 2 and the villian.Ilyenna is a cla. ♥Awesome book! Monica_Pulliam In this story we meet Ilyenna, daughter of Otec from Of Ice and Snow. Ilyenna is a healer and clanmistress, so she is a very important figure in the clan. There has been an attack and the men leave to go help out the neighboring village. When they return there are many wounded and the town becomes flooded with injured from the other village. The danger makes it's way to Ilyenna's village and everything just sort of goes to hell from there. This story is A LOT. Amazing, Dark Fantasy! Jessica@ThePsychoticNerd MY THOUGHTSI've read Amber Argyle's other book, Witch Song, and enjoyed it, but I admit that I really wanted to read this book based entirely on the beautiful cover.

With the enemy stealing over the mountains and Darrien coming to take her to his bed, Ilyenna must decide whether to resurrect the power the fairies left behind. Unwilling to pay such a high price, Ilyenna is enslaved by one of the invaders, Darrien. If she accepts, she will become a force of nature, lose her humanity, and abandon her family. Mortally wounded during a raid, 17-year-old Ilyenna is healed by winter fairies who present her with a seductive offer: become one of them and share their power over winter. Doing so will allow her to defeat Darrien and the other invaders, but if she embraces winter, she will lose herself to that destroying power - forever.. While in captivity, she learns the attack wasn't just a simple raid but part of a larger plot to overthrow her entire nation. But that power comes with a price. Winner of the Rone Award for Best Fantasy/Science Fiction of 2014 Becoming a winter queen will make Ilyenna as cold and cruel and deadly as winter itself, but it might be the only way to save her people from a war they have no hope of winning
