Growing up in an orphanage has been hard and now on the day of her eighteenth birthday she wishes she had a family to celebrate it with more than ever. Capri has always been a little different. Although keeping her special talents a secret, manipulating a small breeze and controlling birds has always been in her blood. Now, finally Capri can start to uncover the truth when she meets Liam, a water Dryad who sees her for what she really is and takes her to her true home, Euphora. Euphora is where all the Dryads, amongst others, live and work. They have the very important job of keeping the world in balance and welcome Capri with open arms. Finally having a pace to call home and being reunited with her father is amazing, but Capri is still haunted by the dreams of the day her mother died and she was taken. She knows she can never rest until she finds her mother’s killer…..but bringing up the past is more dangerous than she thought. Jennings has created a world unlike any I have read about. Euphora is magical but has the very important purpose of keeping the earth running smoothly. I have never read a book about Dryads and it is not a secret that I love when a new character is thrown at me….something other than vampires and weres. Capri is one of the purest souls I have ever seen. Although she has had a hard life she is so kind and sweet but not to the point of annoyance. Soon we start to see a young love blossom and the author did an amazing job of keeping the romance steady throughout the book instead of your classic “They see each other and fall madly in love” synario….fast pace puppy love can get a little sickening although entertaining. Capri’s romance evolves and she doesn’t know her true heart’s desire until closer to the end of the book. All the while a riveting murder mystery is being uncovered. By the end of the book I wanted more of Euphora….and jumped straight into the next book in the quartet. I loved this story and hope you add it to your “To-Read” shelf today!

Appartient à la série
Her name was Capri, and she was Air. She was born with a gift she didn't understand. A gift so strange, so remarkable that she had kept it secret for as long as she could remember, despising that it made her different when all she wanted was to be normal, to belong. As an orphan, belonging to someone, anyone, would have been an incredible blessing, one she would have given up all that she had just to get a taste of. But the truth was that she didn't belong in the orphanage in Virginia, or even in the United States. In fact, she didn't belong with human beings at all. Because she wasn't one of them, not really. She was something much more extraordinary. She could shift the direction of the wind, create billowing clouds out of nothing, and charm birds into dancing on her open palm. She belonged to an elite group of beings, responsible for preserving the balance of nature and the safety of Earth from an underworld that deserved to be feared, and needed to be controlled. And after years of being lost, she had at last been found, and now the truth of how she had ended up so far from home was becoming horribly clear to her. But there's someone who doesn't want her to return; someone who knows Capri was the only witness to an act of heinous treason and violent murder. And when she begins to search her memories for details of the night she was taken from her home, details that will implicate a killer, she finds herself the unwary target of an otherworldly dark force intent on silencing her by any means possible.
