Winter Heiress, by Skye MacKinnon

doodlewinger's review against another edition

5.0

Amazing. I loved every part of this book. Wyn is still trying to get the hang of everything in the winter realm and work on her relationship with each of her four guys. I loved the mystery of the assassins and who is out to get wyn and biera. I was good to see more of crispin's past and storm to show a gentler side. I don't want to say anything too spoilerish but wyn is awesome and the ending was killer.

I must be missing something here. There were so many good reviews but I had a REALLY hard time with this book. Not because of the storyline or the characters but bc I felt like I was missing so much information. I mean seriously I had to double check this was book 2 bc I felt like I’d missed out on important info. It’s randomly mentioned that she’s half god/half guardian, like it’s something that has been discussed before even though it hasn’t. Then we very few reasons why she was shipped off to the human world. 1 sentence really and it makes absolutely no sense why someone would be shipped off without being taught anything about your realm simply bc in the past when they come of age it can be a disaster. Huh here’s an idea have them grow up in the realm but send them to earth for a month before the change. So little explanation and it was just accepted. Then theirs her father. There is conflicting info about him as well. We are told her father and mother were only together a week. That’s all the time they had before he died. Then later in the book it says her father Escaped the castles prison. Did I fall asleep somewhere and not realize it? Cause that is the ONLY time a prison is ever mentioned and again it felt like the author forgot her own storyline. Holes everywhere. And yes I realize at the end the author tells us of another book we can purchase that has the queens love story but I shouldn’t have to read a book (that wasn’t even included in the series list) to understand what is being talked about. I hope the other book doesn’t have so many glaring inconsistencies.

Still not digging a certain aspect of this story, but I think it's because I'm taking it a bit out of context. I don't think it's meant in the way it comes off to me. I really did enjoy this story very much and can't wait to get my hands on the rest of this series. It's very amazing and action-packed. There are some aspects that could have been elaborated on a bit more, but nothing too major. I fully recommend this book. I recommend reading the first one first.

Loved getting to know the characters better and in particular Crispin. Can’t wait for the next book and the continuation of Wyn’s story.

I have been impatiently awaiting more of Wyn and her Guardians. We learn more about Crispin's heartbreaking past and the person who created him. This story is filled with action and humour, thanks especially to a certain unicorn. The ending is a cliffhanger and I am very excited for the next book.

The audio is good, I’m not fond of how she does a couple of the voices but it’s clear and easy to follow and distinguish between each of the characters.

Wyn thought she was going to be safe in her mother’s realm. She thought her adoptive parents would be safe with her gone. She thought mastering her magic would be easy... she was wrong. Ahhh so much drama! I loved every second of it. We get to know her guardians better. We get a look at Crispins past and it’s heart breaking but it was something that needed to be shared.

I can’t wait to see where this story goes in the next book!
