Madly #1 by M. Leighton






Madly is your average nearly-eighteen year old girl - for a princess, that is.
Madly James is thoroughly enjoying her internship in the small town of Slumber when the unthinkable happens - there's a prison break in Atlas, the magically-protected home of Madly's race. A traitor has set free eight Lore, the spirits of what humans know as fairy tales, and they are making their way to Slumber to awaken their descendants.
In order to save her home, the lives of her family, and all of humanity, Madly must learn to wield her exceptional powers and recapture the Lore before it's too late and all is lost. But Madly's only help are her two best friends and the Sentinel, Jackson Hamilton, that threatens both her heart and her destiny. Madly has loved Jackson as long as she can remember, but he is the one thing even a princess can't have. Can she resist love to become the queen she was fated to be? Or can she find a way to have both?
This novelette introduce you to Madly and prepares you for the quest of a lifetime.

Rating : 4/5

Review

This is the first mermaid story I read. Most of YA fiction are almost always about vampire or werewolf or witch and this is a good new addition for me. I'm surprise and kinda disappointed for the very short story but this novelette is meant for introduction only.

It's has a very good plot and full of romance. If you're a fan of romance and love triangle, this would be a good book for you. Yout can spot the romance from the beginning of the book. Madly is a typical rebellious princess who betrothed to her best friend Aidan, but she is hopelessly in love with her Sentinel, Jackson. The characters are likeable, and I quickly fall for Jackson's cold personality.

Can't say much about this book since it's only an intro to make us more curious about the series. But overall it's a good introduction and did make me want to read the whole series.

Probably would go find it latter.
