When nineteen-year-old huntress Feyre kills a wolf in the woods, a terrifying creature arrives to demand retribution. Dragged to a treacherous magical land she knows about only from legends, Feyre discovers that her captor is not truly a beast, but one of the lethal, immortal faeries who once ruled her world.
At least, he’s not a beast all the time.
As she adapts to her new home, her feelings for the faerie, Tamlin, transform from icy hostility into a fiery passion that burns through every lie she’s been told about the beautiful, dangerous world of the Fae. But something is not right in the faerie lands. An ancient, wicked shadow is growing, and Feyre must find a way to stop it, or doom Tamlin—and his world—forever.
From bestselling author Sarah J. Maas comes a seductive, breathtaking book that blends romance, adventure, and faerie lore into an unforgettable read.

My Review 4 STARS
Late to the bandwagon of the ACOTAR series however I am glad that I have finally picked it up.
Feyre is a strong individual. Having not only faced the loss of her mother, but the los of her family home and fortune, she has kept her mothers promise and kept the family alive by hunting for food and selling fur and other kills to keep pennies in their empty pockets and food in their empty tummies.
Her father, injured by creditors has done little to help her, her sister Nesta always looks down her nose and spends coin fast, her sister Erin is a sweet soul and all protect.
Feyre takes action one day finding a Faerie in the woods going after her mark, a deer that could feed her family for days, so she kills it, skins it and takes home her deer kill, leaving the circus in the woods and sealing her fate.
From there she is thrust into a decision to save her family and abandon everything she knows, having to go to the Fay realm after they come for her.
Tamlin is nothing of what she expects the Fay to be. She is hard of trusting after having been the protector of her family and at all times she shows her strength, her fortitude and how far she will gp tp protect those that she loves.
I Loved Tamlin and Lucien in this book, I also loved how Alis looked after her and told her what she could. This is a slow burn relationship, but when Feyre finally realises what Tamlin means to her she fights for him, knowing that her fight could end with her death at the hands of the powerful Fay queen.
Feyre gets the help and support of others in her quest, but sometimes she has to give up parts of herself to do so.
There are twists and turns, real feelings that grab you in the heart and great world building and a strong story that just sweeps you up in the pages.
I can't wait to see what happens with the rest of the series and what all the talk is about.
