Publisher Description
All her life, Elphame never felt like she belonged. From birth she was always set apart, infinitely different from her family and the people of Partholon, because she had so obviously been touched by the great Goddess Epona.
When she feels the call of the ancient and crumbling MacCallan Castle, deserted since the Formorian war over a century ago, Elphame knows that she belongs to its impressive walls, fated to be its keeper. With the help of many others seeking a new home and fresh start to life, Elphame and her newfound clan begin to rebuild the great halls of the castle.
But after she is rescued in the surrounding forest by a mysterious, extraordinary, and uniquely handsome man whose painful origin threatens the safety of her people, she must choose between the life she fought to create—and the love for him that grows within.

"love it. Elphame is a really strong character and tries to find herself after discovering that everyone looks at her different from her mother. I love how she builds herself up into a strong character that people can count on. I'm so going to buying this book when i have the chance."
— Brianna (4 out of 5 stars)

" It was a enjoyable book. Loved the characters "
— Ericka, 1/6/2014 -
" This was a YA novel that reminded me of Lord of the Rings. It is much more watered down, but Cast creates a parallel world with different species and magic. "
— Becca, 12/29/2013 -
" I love that more Parthalon books were made. "
— Amanda, 12/14/2013 -
" I was done a long time ago, I loved it... "

— Elissa, 11/27/2013 -
" This book was pretty good! I love the partholon series and this book just made the love stronger. P.C. Cast is an amazing author. "
— Tanasha, 10/23/2013 -
" I love Partholon and I liked this newer generation of Partholonians. However, read Divine by Mistake and DIvine by Choice first. It's not necessary and I actually read then out of order, but you get more of the background info that you wouldn't catch otherwise! "
— Courtney, 10/14/2013 -
" I like fantasy, but not half-human/half-other-creature characters - especially when it gets a bit raunchy. I liked the story enough, but the fact that we kept getting reminded about her hairy haunches was too much for me. Just not my sort of fantasy novel :) I'm a bit picky. "
— Sharkcrow, 10/12/2013 -
" I just loved these books, the series is great!!! "
— Stacy, 10/6/2013 -
" I was going to give this three stars, because it was a little predictable. But it surprised me once in the end with a not-so-happy ending for one of the characters, and I like when authors make things a little harder for the characters...so that's why it is getting four stars. "
— Michelle, 9/3/2013 -
" basically one of the best books i have ever read. very romantic and sexy, yet sad.... AMAZING!!! I got chills. "
— Angel, 9/2/2013 -
" Really didn't enjoy this book surprisingly. Love P.C. Cast but I had a hard time reading the whole book. "
— Jade, 8/1/2013 -
" I laughed, I cried and I was amazed. "
— Lexxie, 2/4/2013 -
" I liked the book ... although not the best I've read of PC Cast. The descriptions in some parts were really boring, but the plot is interesting and it keeps you in the expectation of what will happen .... "
— Debby, 1/29/2013 -
" Really Good. Absolutely love it. Lots of romance and drama. "
— Nathalie, 9/14/2012 -
" Good read I liked Elphame but I also liked the romance between her brother and the healer almost more than Elphames. Now i wonder what her kid and Lochen will look like. I liked the end and I'm looking forward to what will happen in the last novel, Brighid's Quest. "
— Alesia, 9/7/2012 -
" This story made me cry like a little girl. Oh PC Cast you always know how to pull on my heart strings. "
— Jessen, 6/10/2012 -

" Really enjoyed the other books in the Partholon series! Got this from the Library... "
— Laurie, 12/18/2011 -
" DNF <br/> <br/>I'm not sure I even made it through the first chapter. Actually, I'm not even sure what the hell possessed me to buy it in the first place. "
— Cheese, 5/12/2011 -
" Enjoyable, but not as good as the original 3 Partholon books. I don't think anything will match Shannon and Clanfintan for me now.... "
— Bookgirlie, 4/19/2011 -
" This is a really good spin on Ancient Irish mythology and what *could* have happened back in the days before Stonehenge if there were centaurs, shaman, demons, and other strange things. I enjoyed it immensely. "
— Kayla, 4/8/2011 -
" This book was better than I expected it to be. It lends itself nicely to dramatic readings. "
— Gabrielle, 3/28/2011 -
" Its like a class on mythology, forbidden romance, and ancient blood soaked prophecies all wrapped up together. This book was definately one of my favorites. "
— Natasha, 3/2/2011 -
" Si j'avais vu que cette collection était éditée par Harlequin, je me serais épargné un espoir déçu. L'histoire tient debout, mais les personnages sont très fades, ça se lit vite et ne laissera pas une grande trace. "
— Anna, 2/25/2011 -
" I liked the book ... although not the best I've read of PC Cast. The descriptions in some parts were really boring, but the plot is interesting and it keeps you in the expectation of what will happen .... <br/> "

" LOVED ELPHAIM!!!!!!!!! Wonderful, but with who wrote it I wouldn't expect anything less than masterful writing. "
— Crowdedsolitude, 1/28/2011 -
" So far I've loved everyone by PC Cast, I have a bunch of books yet to read too! "
— Cassandra, 1/6/2011 -
" again wasn't sure how I would take the shift of character focus but liked this one too! "
— Sabrina, 1/1/2011 -
" I loved this, good continuation of the Divine series. I got this from the Adult section of the library after seeing it in the Adult section in several bookshops. It's not a YA book and I have not seen it marketed as one. "
