4.5 of 5 Hearts 

This paranormal book captivated me from the moment I started reading it. I loved the originality that author Carrie Whitethorne brought to the table. Her characters were fun, original, and left me intrigued and wanting more.

Charlotte a Druid and Callan a Fae were instantly drawn to one another and spent a whirlwind weekend together only to be brought back together seven years later unexpectedly.

I loved how the author entwined these two and made them become so much more than what they originally were in the beginning. Callan wanted to be there for Charlotte. He wanted to be the dad and stand by his magical children. Poor Charlotte just had to wrap her mind around that the world as she knew it was not ever going to be the same again.

One of my favorite aspects of this books is that Charlotte's number one priority is her children. She does not care who is royalty or who says what. What is best for her kids is first. And Callan is there it back her. She embraced that her children were magical and that they needed to be taught control but she would not be bossed around or second-guessed.

I cannot wait to finish this series. I feel there will be some great twists and turns head for us!
Carrie is a mum. An author. A creator of worlds. A dreamer. A friend.
At her childhood home in Yorkshire, Carrie was encouraged to utilize her imagination, to see things for what they could be, and to ask the question “what if?” Her mum introduced her to worlds filled with magic: Barrie, Lewis, Tolkien, Blyton. That magic evolved and continued to inspire her when she discovered Rowling and Sanderson. They all asked the question and explored the possibilities, opening doors to new adventures that would forever change generations to come. 
Even as a child, Carrie preferred creative outlets and writing. But as an adult, Carrie had not yet had that moment of inspiration to begin writing a novel of her own. That all changed one normal morning, on a normal walk to school, when a small boy slipped from the pavement and on to the road. There was no accident. No horror. Just a near miss that later formulated into one question: what if he was able to save himself? Fueled by this question and Carrie’s love of fantasy, European folklore, and mythological creatures, The Riftkeepers emerged. This world answered her question. The series gave birth to characters that took on a life of their own, many telling continued stories in novellas and spinoffs.
When Carrie isn’t writing and annoying her editor with endless typos, she barely sleeps, thinks about her characters, indulges in an unhealthy Facebook addiction, exploring the beauty of the Lake District as her backyard, and contemplating which she loves more: pizza or wine. Definitely wine. Considered to be one of the most boring people she knows, writing her own biography was a definite weakness. Her first draft was rubbish and was picked apart by friends who insisted she was funnier and far more interesting than she gives herself credit. She was no longer allowed to write her own biography, so she provided input.
Carrie now resides in West Cumbria with her husband and two children. They are her inspiration. Her world.
