商品描述内容简介The most damaged heart can fly with the right pair of wings.
Madelyn’s life is far from fairytale perfect. She is second in line for the throne of a corrupt, brutal monarchy. Or at least she was until her dark guardian sacrificed his life to hide her safely in a realm of infinite possibilities.
For years she’s lived among a colony of escaped slaves as her guardian’s widow. Even in this simple life, though, nothing is as it seems. Her hero kept a secret—a younger brother named Clayton Delaney. Warrior, winged demon…and the man who now wants to lay claim to her heart.
No longer cast in his brother’s shadow, Clayton meets all obstacles head on, including one named Maddie. His infatuation with her reaches the breaking point when she undergoes a royal rite of passage, going into heat and pushing them both over the edge.
Just as Maddie learns that some risks are worth taking, she discovers that her guardian may be alive. And she’s forced to make a choice between the man she’d thought she loved, and the demon willing to lend her his wings.
Warning: This book contains virginal angst, a hero who’s too nice for his own good, wings, claws, and convenient use of glamour. It contains heartbreaking loss, conversation with a woodland creature, and sweet, sweet demon loving.
媒体推荐Whew! Everlong should come with a three hankie warning on it! Ms. Edwards has penned a truly emotional tale of love lost with the heroine recovering to only find love in the most unlikely of place. While this story not only satisfied this reviewer’s inner romantic side, it also throws in a healthy dose of paranormal with some absolutely delicious demons.
I won’t lie, if you pick up this book, there will be tears shed and you’ll need to have a hankie close at hand, but I will say it is well worth the read. Ms. Edwards not only balanced the romance in this book with the sci-fi genre, she did a superb job of it. The creativeness of this author amazed me. The descriptions she gave not only of Madelyn’s life as second in line to the throne, but also the tradition rich royal rite of passage was simply amazing. I felt as if I were there, watching a well-crafted movie. Kudos to Ms. Edwards for writing such an intricate tale of love.—Rated 5 Delightful Divas and a Recommended Read by Dakota of Dark Diva Reviews
Everlong was an enticing read, from page one I was intrigued. A wonderful mix of paranormal and fantasy. Ms. Edwards has created the perfect definition of fantasy romance. The story opens with an exciting fight scene that instantly pulls you in. I really loved the journey the characters went on. Comparing the situation at the beginning of the book to where they end up is pretty amazing. All elements blended well together. The sexy heroes, danger, the evil relatives and of course romance. A very enjoyable read.
If you enjoy fantasy and hunky winged-demons -- then this is the book for you. –Anna’s Book Blog
Everlong was a fabulous paranormal/fantasy romance. I was sucked in from the beginning fight scene to the beautiful kiss at the end. This story has everything you could possible wish for: a great plot, fantastic characters, mystery, intrigue, romance, and a nice twist to the ending. Ms. Edwards has written her characters in a way that you feel you are experiencing every emotion and activity with them. You can feel Maddie’s heartache when Harper disappears, then her confusion when she begins to have feelings for Clayton. You also want to cheer Clayton on so that he doesn’t give up on Maddie. If you are looking for a great paranormal/fantasy romance that is easy to read and continuously flows from beginning to end, then Everlong is definitely the book for you.—Victoria Lyn, Manic Readers
