Mortal Enchantment by Stacey O'Neale
Synopsis:
In Kalin Matthew's world, elementals control the forces of nature. They are divided into four courts: air, woodland, fire, and water. At sixteen she will leave the life she's built with her mortal mother. Kalin will move to Avalon to rule with her father—the elemental king of the air court. Along the way, she's attacked by a fire court assassin and saved by Rowan, a swoon-worthy elemental with a questionable past. Worst of all, she learns her father is missing. To rescue him, Kalin will have to work with a judgmental council and a system of courts too busy accusing each other of deceit to actually be able to help her. But, they aren’t her biggest challenge. With the Midwinter’s Ball only five days away, Kalin must take over her father’s duties, which includes shifting control of the elements—power Kalin has yet to realize. As Rowan attempts to train her, a war looms between the four courts. If Kalin fails, her father will die and the courts will fall, but the betrayal she’s about to uncover may cost her even more...
I found this book to be entertaining, and I enjoyed the plot. I would say my accurate book rating would be a 3.5, I have a few issues with the book. One of the issues I have is the fast sometimes unclear plot pace. Although I did enjoy fantasy setting, and small detail tie ins. I also particularly loved the warrior we got see within the Princess Kalin. The chemistry between Kalin and Rowan was playful yet steamy. As for any particular errors I found what I believe to be a spelling error; page 49, line 12, 3rd word.
It said him lips, when I believe it should be his lips. I would also like to note on page 119 there is a line I quite enjoyed;"Crap on a cracker!" I couldn't help find this use of words to be creative and rather humorous. My interest within the series has be set and matched, and have hopes to get my hands on the second book within the series when possible.
