Now Daire is forced to discover if Dace is the one guy she's meant to be with...or if he’s allied with the enemy she's destined to destroy.

Comments:

Slow start...really confusing...and frankly, I couldn't finish it after hoarding this book and trying for weeks. Pass. -Yvette/Merrimack

Slow to get into, a bit scattered. I finally ended up skimming it as it seemed that many words didn't seem necessary for this reader. Nancy/former Madbury
