Eloise Hart has lived for 17 Years with her single mother,
Jasmine, without any knowledge that the world of Faery
exists. She gets her first glimpse although she doesn't
believe it, when a very sexy guy named Lucas, warns her
that the Faery king is after her. She doesn't truly believe
until she finds herself in the rath of Lord Strahan, the
faery king with no way to leave. Lord Strahan was supposed
to rule for seven years and then pass on the crown, but he
refused to yield it, butting both the fae world and the
human one in jeopardy of chaos.
The only one who can fix things is Eloise's Aunt Antonia.
Strahan hopes to lure Antonia using Eloise as bait. In the
meantime, Eloise's best friend, Jo, is being charmed by her
own sexy beau, who turns out to be Strahan's son, Eldric,
who appears to have his own agenda. Eloise, Jo and their
best friend devin must band together with various faery
groups to attempt to save the two worlds from Strahan's
greed.
Alyxandra Harvey has created two strong characters in
Eloise and Jo: Eloise is quieter with a temper and dresses
like a hill-billy while Jo is boisterous and boy crazy with
a love of literature. STOLEN AWAY alternates viewpoints
between Jo and Eloise, giving readers insight into both
characters' experiences. Harvey's secondary characters
don't have as much personality except for the small fairy
with an attitude that Jo befriends. Lucas and Eldric don't
shine as much although it's obvious Eldric is a "bad boy."
Harvey excels in dialogue, dropping in some humor from time
to time that will make you laugh out loud. STOLEN AWAY is a
quick and
light read, so for most it won't matter that the plot line
seems to be similar to other books about the fae.
For seventeen years, Eloise Hart had no idea the world of
Faery even existed. Now she has been abducted and trapped in
the Rath of Lord Strahan, King of Faery. Strahan was only
meant to rule for seven years, as Faery tradition dictates,
and then give up his crown to another. But he won’t comply,
and now chaos threatens both worlds. The only one who can
break his stranglehold on the Faery court is his wife. . .
Eloise’s aunt Antonia. Using Eloise to lure Antonia, Strahan
captures his wife, desperate to end the only threat to his
reign. Now Eloise must become the rescuer. Together with her
best friends Jo and Devin, she must forge alliances with
other Fae, including a gorgeous protector named Lucas, and
Strahan’s mysterious son, Eldric—who may or may not betray them.
