By C. L. Wilson

Simple
woodcarver’s daughter, Ellie, discovers she is anything but ordinary when Rain
Tairen Soul, leader of the Fey claims her as his truemate. He’s tortured by his
past, haunted by the madness caused by his first wife’s death and only Ellie
can help him save the world and discover a love that’s worth fighting for.
Rain has
spent a thousand years behind the border of the Fading lands, since the death
of his wife when he literally “scorched the world.” Madness is creeping up on
him but when it is determined that the way to save his people and the legendary
Tairen, beasts of immense power, Rain will be forced to journey to a
neighboring kingdom with his friends and family. He meets Ellie when he feels
her pain and comes to her aid. The first of the kings of the Fey to find a
truemate, he finds that he must put aside his anger and distrust in order to
win Ellie’s love. Behind her shy exterior lies a strength and courage that will
have her standing toe to toe with her fearsome truemate. As Rain struggles to
open his heart, Ellie must navigate being thrust into the spotlight with
foreign courting customs, jealous queens, and an old enemy who’s determined to
destroy Rain and all he holds dear. As Rain comes to love his feisty truemate,
Ellie must come to terms with what she’d always known and accept the magic that
resides inside her. For only if she and Rain fight together, can they save the
world…and each other. The first book in C. L. Wilson’s Tairen Soul Series is an
epic fantasy romance that will have the readers fully immersed in the masterful
worldbuilding. Told from the POV of Ellie and Rain, this is a powerful story of
love that is both action-packed and emotionally charged that had me unable to put it down.
Excellent kirkus review! You did especially well with your opening and closing and did a good job summarizing the story using appeal factors. Fantastic!
