Their love was meant to be.
When Megan Rosenberg moves to Ireland, everything in her life seems to fall into place. After growing up in America, she's surprised to find herself feeling at home in her new school. She connects with a group of friends, and she is instantly drawn to darkly handsome Adam DeRís.
But Megan is about to discover that her feelings for Adam are tied to a fate that was sealed long ago—and that the passion and power that brought them together could be their ultimate destruction.

"I found this book to be intriguing. I love the fact that this book took place in Ireland and included some of Ireland's famous sites. I found that the elemental magic was a nice twist from the ordinary fairy/druid story. I'm intrigued by the 5th prophecy. Can't wait for the next book to be released."
— Heidi (5 out of 5 stars)

" I liked this book. I like the twist and fresh idea. However, I did see some similarity in the bond and interactions between Megan and Adam, to that of Bella and Edward. It felt very familiar. "

" I LOVED this book! I can't wait for the next installment in the series. "
— Kate, 2/9/2014 -
" The only thing it really had going for it was hot Irish guys (what can I say? I'm a sucker.) The story involving the elements was interesting, but completely dulled by the whole "instant attraction" shit between Adam and...Whatever her name was. So, really, 2.5 stars. "
— Savita, 2/3/2014 -

— Annie, 11/27/2013 -
" Yeah..umm...the only thing I hate more than a love triangle in books is INSTA-LOVE. So Yeahh....this definitely wasn't my cup of tea. "
— Shirley, 6/19/2013 -
" Couldn't put this book down! "
— High, 11/29/2012 -
" I think 1 book in this series is enough for me. I thought the Ireland premise would be fun, but it was mostly a lot of blah blah blah explanation. It never got exciting or romantic enough. "
— Kristin, 8/23/2012 -
" Their relationship was a bit too fast paced! "
— Codee, 7/28/2012 -
