Will fabled objects of myth be enough to defend their emerald isle?
The mystical Tuatha Dé Danann walked the hills of ancient Ireland long before the first R, or king, ever ruled the land. Before they stepped back to make way for mankind, they left behind objects of incredible power that would reveal themselves when most needed. When invaders from the North arrive, it feels like the moment that has long been foretold has finally come.
Deidre, the daughter of a R, and Kylin, the son of a Northman who found peace and a home in ‰ire, have little in common, until they begin seeing visions of these fantastical gifts. The revelation that a traitor exists among the many Irish kings forces them to work together using their newfound powers in defense of their homeland. As all they hold dear comes under threat, it may be more than just dreams that the two begin to share...

Set back in time. Just the way I like my love story.
It is a great book couldn't put it down. The people you grow to love, the magic of the the way things go. I love Ireland and the history of the land.
Hope there is a sequel
Deidre and Kylin don't think much of each other until they unexpectedly start having dreams and then gifts bestowed on them from the Tuatha Dé Danann. Determined to protect their people and understanding from their dreams that they need to work together, their perception of each other changes. They fall in love as they work together to uncover a traitor in their midst and protect their people from an upcoming invasion from the Northmen.This book had a lot of promise, but I feel like it fell a bit short. Story idea and plotline, as well as good masking of the traitor until the very end, was good. I had difficulty with the amount of exclamation points in the story. it reminded me more of child dialogue than adults. Additionally, Deidre and Kylin felt very young and romantically immature in their thoughts, more like what I would have envisioned if the time period put her as a 16 year old and him as 18 years old. I found myself skimming parts of the story.
This is a good romantasy. I did like the main characters, Deidre and Kylin, and they had some chemistry but the story moved a bit slow for me. It took me a bit to really want to read it. I received an advanced readers copy and all opinions are my own.
