Summer Princess (Dark Fae #1) by Sloane Murphy- Review by Angela Hayes

Summer PrincessSummer Princess by Sloane Murphy
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

 

Why, oh why haven’t I discovered Ms. Murphy’s books before now? I am kicking myself for missing out all this time!!!
Summer Princess is the first book in the Dark Fae series by Sloane Murphy. I loved this story, and absolutely can not wait for the release of Book #2. I don’t know if it is even been written yet- but I am willing to camp out in the author’s yard just to get snippets as they come!!! And don’t get me started on the ending- OMG!!! The mother of all cliff-hanger’s…. I definitely didn’t see that coming. SO well woven, and cleverly crafted!!! Well played Ms. Murphy! Well Played indeed!
I must admit that it took me a little bit to warm to Emilia as she irked me somewhat in the beginning. But I soon found myself caught up in the story, following along avidly- and on “team Amelia” all the way!
This is definitely darker than I expected- even with the hint in the form of the series title “Dark Fae”- I still didn’t catch on lol. The darker elements gave this story added intrigue- and made for riveting reading. I so want to divulge everything in this book that caught my attention and had me so engrossed- but I really don’t want to spoil it for you. All I can say is that if you love a great fantasy story- with interesting characters, a riveting storyline- and cleverly crafted intrigue, and twists and turns- then you really don’t want to miss out on reading this book!!!
Bring on Book #2!!!
Now to explore the rest of Ms. Murphy’s work while I wait…

Thank you, Sloane Murphy!

What a great read! First of all the cover drew me in first then to read the synopsis had me even more intrigued. Sloane Murphy is a new author for me but her writing had me hooked from the very beginning. She has created a storyline that is mentally visual and vivid. She has created characters that have depth, are strong and relatable. I was kept hooked with this read and I couldn’t stop turning the pages to find out what would happen next. Being a dark fantasy read I was looking forward to being taken into this world, I was on the edge of my seat with anticipation, this book is full of secrets, betrayal, lies, suspense, adventure and love and to top it all off, we have an ending like that! I can’t wait to see what else this author brings and I will be eagerly awaiting the next book!

I give Summer Princess (Dark Fae Book 1) by Sloane Murphy, 5 stars.

This is an amazing fantasy book obviously inspired the works of George R. R. Martin. This is not a happy-go-lucky book. There is so much tragedy and emotions of all kind in this book. Emilia goes through so much but she learns and grows as the story goes on. But she is not the only character in this book and the other characters are just as interesting. You may not like them all, but the author does a wonderful job of making them real. Then there is the story itself. This general type of story has been told before, but that will not deter you at all. The world this author creates is spectacular and you will be drawn in immediately. I cannot wait to read the next book.

If you are a fan of fantasy that has some darker elements to it, this book is for you.

Summer Princess by Sloane Murphy a five-star read that will warm you up like sun rise. This is the first novel the Dark Fae series and I cant wait for more, this one kicks off with a bang and shows you just how enthralling this story is going to be and continues to hook you in and not let go, the you reach the end if like me you feel a tad bereft, I finished this last night and had to wait till this morning to write this as I didn’t know what I was going to write other than what a journey I have just been on. I am now eagerly awaiting number two in the series as although I have enjoyed reading Sloane Murphy before this one just knocked my socks off, she must be having a little something extra in her morning cuppa as the writing was bursting with flavour.

This book! Like I am legit struggling with how to properly blubber on about it with as much passion and excitement that I want to without giving away too much and spoiling this gem for anyone else. This is a new author to me and honestly I went in blind solely based off the bada** cover that graces it. I was so glad to find that the contents behind that cover would blow me away just as much as it did. This book will take you on a journey you didn’t know was missing from your life and leave you addicted and craving the next fix/book as soon as you possibly can get your hands on it. I know that is exactly where I am right now. Only saving grace for me was I can go read other released novels of hers while I wait!

Summer Princess is quite the tale of love, drama, danger, fae, and mystical creatures that will surely steal your heart away. Almost immediately you are thrust into this dark and disparaging world with the main character, Emilia. She is forced to find a way to survive in the darkness right along with the fae themselves. What will ensue will be an adventure and a romance you don’t want to miss. I can’t say enough good about this book so go read it for yourself and find out just what you are missing!

Summer Princess by Sloane Murphy was an incredible novel! I was completely captured and enraptured in this story from the beginning to the end. It was so very well written and detailed, I was amazed. The drama and suspense and slight mystery only added to the appeal of the novel. This one reminds me a bit of the Throne of Glass novels in a way. Fae books have quickly become some of my favorites to read and this one certainly didn’t disappoint! I can’t wait to read the second installment!

In this opposites attract story, we are introduced to Emilia Daarke and Cade Vasara. Emilia is destined for a life she doesn’t want but Cade has to make her acquainted with her new lifestyle. Emilia was caught by her father but thrown into a deadly game where she has to win for herself and her loved ones as well.
Cade is caught between a rock and a hard place as he struggles to find balance between love and his sworn duty. Can Cade have the best of both worlds? This book will answer this question as the story continues to unfold for the reader.
Betrayal and secrets will either push these two to work together or push them apart. Another action-packed read for me from the start to the finish. It’s full of romance, action, unpredictable, and steamy scenes to keep you captivated till the end.

Summer Princess by Sloan Murphy is the first book in the Dark Fae series. This is an interesting story that really hooks you from the start.
Emilia and Cade for me are definitely what make this book. They are such strong characters that I was instantly drawn to them. It was so easy to connect with them as a reader. The author does a great job of building the story and keeping the development going.
I thought this was a really strong start to a series and can’t wait to read more.

I absolutely love a good fantasy book and was so excited to find this book and author. I am so pleased to say that this book met my expectations. A grand universe has been created with some fantastic characters and plot development. I sped through this story and read it in one session. It reminded me in scale of several beloved authors in my library, Sarah J Maass, Stacey Marie Brown. Just a fantastic story that I cannot wait to continue reading.

5 out of 5 stars

The story Summer Princess (Dark Fae Book 1) by Sloane Murphy is a paranormal/dark fantasy book. It is a story that had me hooked from the start and I found myself not wanting to put it down until I had finished the last page. It is a story that includes secrets, betrayal, and family ties. I enjoyed reading about the character of Emilia Daarke. She is a young woman who has fallen for the wrong person and finds herself being manipulated into a deadly game. Emilia is headstrong and independent. Will she be able to save the one that she loves? Cade Vasara is still in love with Emelia. He finds himself having to choose between his love for her and his duties. What does the future hold for Emilia and Cade? Read this book to find out. This story has some dark themes and very emotional moments. There are heartbreaking moments that left me angry with what was happening and also feeling for Emilia and what she is having to go through. There are twists and turns that I didn’t see coming and I was always wondering what was going to happen or be revealed next. This is a story that you don’t want to miss out on. Highly recommended reading.

I enjoyed this book. It is a dark fantasy story that has a lot happening but it kept me turning pages just to see what will happen next with the characters. This story is written in such a way that you can picture the vivid details of the story. This is a well developed story with creative characters that are strong and connectable. Emilia has fallen in love but the problem is she can’t have him. Her father has other plans for her that puts her in a game that if she loses, she could lose those she loves. Cade is torn between duty and the one person he has loved. This story is full of secrets, betrayal and love which made it really easy to read. I highly recommend reading this book to find out what happens with Emilia and Cade.
