Synopsis: MacKayla Lane lies naked on the cold stone floor of a church, at the mercy of the erotic Fae master she once swore to kill. Far from home, unable to control her sexual hungers, MacKayla is now fully under the Lord Master’s spell.
He has stolen her past, but MacKayla will never allow her sister’s murderer to take her future. Yet even the uniquely gifted sidhe-seer is no match for the Lord Master, who has unleashed an insatiable sexual craving that consumes Mac’s every thought—and thrusts her into the seductive realm of two very dangerous men, both of whom she desires but dares not trust.
As the enigmatic Jericho Barrons and the sensual Fae prince V’lane vie for her body and soul, as she rallies the sidhe-seers to fight an impossible battle and the power of the Dark Book weaves its annihilating path through the city, Mac’s greatest enemy delivers a final challenge...

**This is a RE-read for me** First review can be read HERE.

I wanted to re-read this book for three reasons 1) the next book in the series is coming out next month and I wanted to refresh my memory of where things left off and 2) because I needed a final book for the Re-Read 2010 Reading Challenge I had joined and 3) because I FRIGGIN' LOVE THIS SERIES!!

I think this might be the most amazing fantasy world building book since Harry Potter. I just can't get enough of the amazing world and events that author Karen Marie Moning has instilled in this series. It's just amazing. And the characters are fantastic! I know many people boo-hooed the heroine in the first book for being so caught up in her looks and clothes, but that is a MUST for this character to show her growth! In the first book "Mac" (MacKayla Lane) is a young carefree naive girl who goes through life rather easily. Then her sister is murdered and Mac is tossed into a world she didn't even know existed. By the fourth book "Dreamfever" not much of the "old Mac" is left. In her place is an amazing kick-ass heroine who is determined to fight evil at all cost and help the human race regain the world as we've always known it to be. Mac is amazing and I love her. My heart breaks for the suffering she's endured while at the same time she has me laughing out loud at her wit and ability to quickly cope with all life is tossing at her. She's an amazing character who grows by leaps and bounds in this series.

The men in this series are mysterious, dangerous and sexy as can be. Jericho Barrons, the nonhuman super amazing being is the most mysterious of all. He's powerful, the most powerful being Mac or anyone else has seen in the books so far. Mac has no idea just WHAT Jericho Barrons is but she's determined to find out. While Barrons teaches Mac what he believes she needs to know, he struggles with keeping her close and keeping her at a safe distance from himself. The battle between these too is only exceeded by the lustful chemistry they stir up with each other. A fantastic mix!

As each book answers a few more questions, each book also tosses in more questions yet to be answered. But for fans of the book, the main questions we want answered are 1) WHAT is Jericho Barrons and 2) will Mac and Barrons have a future together? Oh and one more, who or what was the 'beast' that Mac killed at the end of "Dreamfever". That one has me completely stumped! (but I don't want to know until I read the final book so PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE absolutely NO spoilers or hints! I won't even read the author's website because I do NOT like hints! I want to be surprised!)

I simply can NOT wait to get my greedy hands on the final book of this series "Shadowfever".

I HIGHLY recommend this series for fans of kick-ass fantasy fiction heroine books! You won't be disappointed!!
