Aislinn is a teenager who can see the Fae. She's spent her whole life hiding from them and avoiding them at all costs. Her entire life revolves around certain rules set in place by her Gram to keep her safe. So when two particular fae start following Aislinn, she grows more and more worried.

Seth is her long-term flirty friend, who she begins a relationship with as the story progresses. I really love Seth. He's one of my book-crushes, because he's insanely perfect. He's understanding, sweet, and protective. So when Aislinn finally reveals her dark secret that she has the Sight, instead of calling her crazy, he helps her research why the two fae are stalking her. Seth is really the "good guy" of the book. Keenan has his own personal team of screaming fans, but for me, Seth is the man. I can't stress enough how sexy he is in my head. I think any sane girl would go live in his abandoned train with him.

Keenan is the Summer King whose powers have been bound. For nine centuries, he's been searching for his missing Queen. The game is this: he seduces the chosen girl, and she begins to turn fae. She then takes the test. She lifts the winter staff, and if the winter chill fills her, she is not the missing Queen and will instead be filled with winters chill until the next girl faces the test. Her job is to warn the next girl never to trust Keenan. If the girl decides to reject Keenan's approaches, she will becomes a Summer Girl. This part of the story line involves his evil mother, the Winter Queen, as well as Donia, Keenan's prior lover who took the test and failed.

Keenan knows right away that Aislinn is special. But Aislinn is torn between two worlds. She doesn't want to be fae. She wants to keep going to school and keep seeing Seth, and be there for her Grams.

I just looove this book so much. The story is fun, the characters are built well, and it introduces you the world created by Melissa Marr. I love the relationship between Seth and Aislinn. It's the best thing when you read a book, and you can feel the relationships between the characters.

Melissa Marr has created a magical world of fae, kings and queens, and love that will hopefully extend beyond the Wicked Lovely series, and into any other book she may write.
