In a land that harbours two realms, magical creatures and dangerous games are a way of life and death for the travelling Fianna clans. It is an honour to visit Tír na nÓg, even if the price is pretending Fair Ones don’t hunt humans for sport.
Ireland native Aisling never imagined she’d be alone, living a double life. But when your family shares the ability to see through Fae glamour, keeping secrets isn’t something you do for fun. You do it to stay alive.
A murder leaves Aisling motherless, thrusting her into the position of matriarch in a world she thought she’d never return to. Teaming up with an unlikely band of allies for a competition steeped in peril, she can’t resist the distraction warrior Setanta offers. Brooding, gorgeous and impossibly strong, he gives her a chance to be something she never could before—herself.
Bonded by troubled pasts and deadly circumstances, the team of misfits must face damaging truths as they try to stop their worlds from colliding.

My Review: I loved the setting and feel of this one but the characters were not all that good. I think this one would have been better if we would have just had one POV vs all four which really made me feel like I was taking out of the story. It didn't flow from one POV to another. The pacing was too slow for the story and the start of this was just boring.
Review
"This perfect combination of modern day Ireland and the deep traditions and lore kept me reading from start to finish. The mysterious murder, the revolving, well-developed characters all came together in a perfect kick off to what is sure to be a satisfying series. Wright blew me away as she immersed me into a world where the fae are the scary beings they were always meant to be."
