Since begging him to leave her alone the previous year, the fairy Laurel has had no contact with the elf Tamani. Although her heart is still broken, the protagonist is certain that the human David was the right choice. However, as life begins to return to normal, she discovers a new enemy lurking. Once again, Laurel must rely on Tamani to protect and guide her, as the danger now threatening Avalon is something the faerie world never imagined possible. And for the first time in her life, Laurel isn't so sure her side will prevail. In this volume, the reader will see the story not only through Laurel's eyes, but also through Tamani's. As always, Aprilynne masterfully balances suspense, action, and romance. Illusions will please both the youngest reader and those who have always said they don't believe in fantastical beings.
