Don't look at Them. Never let Them know you can see Them.

That is Ethan Chase's unbreakable rule. Until the fey he avoids at all costs—including his reputation—begin to disappear, and Ethan is attacked. Now he must change the rules to protect his family. To save a girl he never thought he'd dare to fall for.

Ethan thought he had protected himself from his older sister's world—the land of Faery. His previous time in the Iron Realm left him with nothing but fear and disgust for the world Meghan Chase has made her home, a land of myth and talking cats, of magic and seductive enemies. But when destiny comes for Ethan, there is no escape from a danger long, long forgotten.

It was refreshing to read a book set in fey that wasn't focused on Meghan.  I'll admit that I was tiring of her by the end of The Iron Fey series.  I needed a change to stay interested.  Ethan is a great change.  We get appearances by Meghan, Ash, and even Puck, but the book is really centered on Ethan and Keirran's journeys.  I liked getting to know these two new-ish characters,  The book definitely ends on a cliff-hanger, but I'm okay with it.  We get a whole new mystery to solve in thus series and I'm on board.  I can't wait to see how this all plays out.
