This review is for Anela Deen's "Through a Valley of White Mist."

“Through a Valley of White Mist” is a fantastic conclusion to Simith and Jessa’s stories! Filled with action and adventure, and a few unexpected twists, “Through a Valley White Mists” is as engrossing and immersive as the first two novellas in the series. Simith and Jessa grow closer while they try to stop the fairies from taking over.

Though Simith knows he can’t make amends for all he has done, he needs to atone as much as he can. This is as much for the beings he wronged as it is for himself. He does not like what he has become, and he won’t find peace until he changes his path. I think that Jessa softened him a bit and taught him what it felt like to be accepted no matter what. He, in turn, does the same for Jessa. He also shows her that it is ok to trust and depend on others.

Though the action is amazing, as is the world-building and the character development, I am a sucker for a love story, and this one is lovely. Two wounded people who feel incapable of love find each other and slowly learn to feel again. Plus there are fairies, trolls, pixies and more!
