Extended description

Protecting humans from dangerous magical creatures is all in a day’s work for a faerie training to be a guardian. Seventeen-year-old Violet Fairdale knows this better than anyone—she’s about to become the best guardian the Guild has seen in years. That is, until a cute human boy who can somehow see through her faerie glamour follows her into the fae realm. Now she’s broken Guild Law, a crime that could lead to her expulsion.

The last thing Vi wants to do is spend any more time with the boy who got her into this mess, but the Guild requires that she return Nate to his home and make him forget everything he’s discovered of the fae realm. Easy, right? Not when you factor in evil faeries, long-lost family members, and inconvenient feelings of the romantic kind. Vi is about to find herself tangled up in a dangerous plot—and it’ll take all her training to get out alive.

What an amazing book! My only disappointment was that it finished so soon. As I turned the last page, all I felt was, NOOOOO!, I want more! I almost turned back to page 1 just to read it all again, and get lost in the wonderment of the world Miss Morgan has created. The characters were unique and interesting, I especially enjoyed the relationship between the two main characters and cannot wait to see where this leads in the next book. Miss Morgan has written a delightful first book. Keep them coming, and quickly please!

A new and exciting magical world to get lost in!!! what more could you ask for.

The idea of magical weapons appearing at the wielders sudden need adds an extra level of excitement to every battle scene.

The story is really well written with great attention to detail and realistic emotions. Cant wait for the next installment.

I really liked the world and magic of Creepy Hollow, and I'm looking forward to read more stories of that universe.
There's a nice mixture of fun, action and romance.

I just would have wished to learn more about some characters' background (good guys as well as bad guys), but I guess that's what the promised future stories are for, right?

One of my favourite aspects is how Violet seems old and young at the same time. She is a successful guardian, nearly finished with a taxing apprenticeship. But at the same time, she's like a teenager facing first love.
