I don't want to say that this was a disappointing book because I kind of expected it to be the way it was. The writing was a bit amateur and that was the biggest struggle for me. However, the basic story itself was right up my alley.Princess Calista of the fae Summer Court has grown up knowing about a prophecy surrounding her and three other princesses that foretells of their saving the fae world. She and her best friend (who is conveniently a handsome warrior)have been training in preparation in secret for years. Upon her twenty-first birthday, at a ball, she meets Prince Ryder. Their connection is instant. But is it as simple as mere attraction?I had a few problems with the story itself outside of the writing. For one, I still don't know why it was even necessary to connect the fae world to the human world. The references to bringing things back from the mortal world were unnecessary and only distracted from the main plot. I also felt like there wasn't a decent explanation of the actual prophecy or how it would affect the land, which you'd think would be something covered in depth. Instead, we got somewhat gratuitous descriptions of all the sexual advances Calista received. Now don't get me wrong, I've read plenty of "those books", but this was definitely a story that could have done without the sex.Overall, it wasn't too bad a story, but the writing really needed some work. At first I thought this book sounded good. Fae Princess Calista of the summer court was about to meet her Guardian and Fae Prince Ryder of the winter court was about to meet her.Calista was a simple teenage character with no depth to her personality, she was obviously strong minded and refused to be treated like a physical weakling but apart from this she was an emotional weakling, she couldn't control who she loved and how she could decide.Ryder was a stereotypical man character. He was obsessive about the girl of his dreams, he jumped I conclusions and started fights over theories of cheating. Even though he was a winter fairy, he was not cold hearted, he acted kind to Calista showing her only his good side.The whole romance in the story wasn't very original from the beginning I could predict the ending (I was right), the whole happy ending was cliché and I would've preferred some cliff hangers to keep the story entertaining. I'm not saying the book was an overall disaster but just that some of the plot seemed a bit unoriginal and a repeat of every other fairytale story.
Do You like book Forever Fae (2012)?
Description was so CHILDISH. cliche ending. predictable plot line.
