The Danger of Destiny by Leigh Evans

The Danger of Destiny (Mystwalker)

by Leigh Evans

To try seems impossible, but to lose is unthinkable...

Hedi Peacock's to-do list is fraught with danger and unattainable goals. Luckily, this half-fae isn't fazed by the impossible - or prefers to ignore it.

Hedi's found her way from our world to the fae lands, to save her brother's soul. But can she remove the sorcerer that's possessed Lexi's body? And saving her brother is meaningless unless she destroys the mage's spellbook, a volume so dark that it threatens human and fae realms. Hedi and her Alpha werewolf, Trowbridge, have a straightforward plan. However, planning has never quite worked for Hedi. Especially when Trowbridge risks meeting his feral former pack - now out for blood.

Then, as Hedi nears her destination, she witnesses a scene of inexpressible grief. It forces her to re-evaluate loyalty and loss - but if Hedi changes her quest, can she still reach her dreams?

Patricia Briggs has said 'If you pick up a Leigh Evans book, you won't put it down until the last page', so don't miss this fourth book in the Mystwalker series.

THE DANGER OF DESTINY is by far and above my favorite of the Mystwalker books. We FINALLY get to see our hero and heroine work together instead of apart, and Heidi accepts all parts of her and owns who and what she was born as. It was extremely refreshing to see after the previous three books had her unsure of herself and her place in the world.

While this story picks up (kind of) just hours after the previous story left off, there is still enough back story sprinkled in so I wasn't totally lost. But if you are one of those people who likes to wait until a series has a conclusion, there isn't SO MUCH back story sprinkled in that it gets old. These would be great books to binge on.

DESTINY takes place mostly in the Fae realm, and is the only book to do so. Not only are there new challenges - they speak another language - but there are new/old enemies and a totally unfamiliar terrain and culture as well. Heidi up until now just cannot catch a break ... other than snagging Trowbridge as her mate! And it really is a good thing too, he makes a fantastic and sexy guide through the forest.

I don't want to say too much, because this is the best series you have never heard of, and while this is a review for the last book in it, I don't want to give away any more from the previous books! Give it a shot, and let me know what you think!
