A River Enchanted
SYNOPSIS
A sparkling debut fantasy with Celtic tones set on the magical isle of Cadence where two childhood enemies must team up to discover why girls are going missing from their clan.
Enchantments run deep on the magical Isle of Cadence.
The capricious spirits that live there find mirth in the lives of the humans who call the land home, but that mischief turns to malevolence as girls begin to go missing.
Adaira, heiress of the east, knows the spirits only answer to a bard’s music, enticing them to return the missing girls. But there’s only one bard capable of drawing the spirits forth by song: her childhood enemy, Jack Tamerlaine.
He hasn’t stepped foot on Cadence in ten long years, content to study music at the Mainland university. But as Jack and Adaira reluctantly work together it becomes apparent the trouble with the spirits is far more sinister than first thought and an older, darker secret lurks beneath the surface, threatening to undo them all.
‘An alluring and rich tale, at once a fast-paced mystery and a love story as warm as a hearth’ Ava Reid, bestselling author of The Wolf and the Woodsman

REVIEWS
Um livro que nos encanta
Sara Jesus
Ler este livro foi como reencontrar novos amigos, o conforto e atmosfera da ilha de Cadence maravilho-me deste do início . Um livro em que cada personagem é especial. Adorei acompanhar a jornada de Jack e Aid, mas também gostei muito de conhecer Sidra e Torin. Uma narrativa inspirada em lendas escocesas, em que a força do vento, da água e do fogo tem influencia na vida dos habitantes desta ilha. Uma rivalidade entre clãs que culmina num fim inesperado. Contudo o que realmente me prendeu foi a paixão de Jack por compor as suas baladas, a sua harpa capaz de convocar espíritos. Assim com o desabrochar do seu amor pela ilha, e pela sua antiga rival Aid. É a história de um menino perdido, que sempre se sentiu inferior e regressa entendendo que aquela sempre foi a sua casa.
I could read Rebecca Ross’s shopping list and give it 5 star

It’s difficult to do reviews here without spoilers so I prefer to let this phrase catch your attention instead: “ I once thought home was simply a place. Four walls to hold you at night while you slept. But I was wrong. It’s people. It’s being with the ones that you love, and maybe even the ones that you hate.”
