Review/Tempestuous by Lesley Livingston

"I don't love Sonny Flannery." 

That's the lie Kelley Winslow told to protect the boy she loves from a power he doesn't know he possesses. Devastated, Sonny retreats—to a haven for Lost Fae that's hidden deep underneath New York City. 

But Kelley's not about to let things end in heartbreak. To get Sonny back, she's got to find out who's after his magick—and how to use her own. She's got to uncover who's recruiting Janus Guards to murderously hunt innocent Faerie. She's got to help rebuild the shattered theater company she called family. And she's got to do it all without getting dangerously distracted by the Fennrys Wolf, whose legendary heart of stone seems to melt whenever he's around Kelley. 

The intrigue and romance that began with Wonderous Strnage and Darklight come to a stormy head in Tempestuous, the breathtaking conclusion to Lesley Livingston’s ravishing urban Faerie trilogy.

Once again, Lesley Livingston’s third and final book in her amazing fae series has successful transported me to NYC to follow Kelly Winslow as she attempts to make sense of the duel world that has become a part of her life. Tempestuous’ plot is not only complex, but suspenseful with several unexpected twists. I read this book in one sitting and the ending was completely satisfying, except for the fact that I will grievously miss Kelly and Sonny’s adventures. 

The title fits perfectly with the action in the story as both Kelly and Sonny are dealing with the aftermath and revelations revealed in Darklight. Kelly also is having a difficult time coming to terms with her feelings about her father, Oberon, and the fact that he is dying. As with Livingston’s first two books the action and suspense is non-stop. Much is revealed in this final adventure, and I loved every minute. 

I realize that this review is a bit short on details, but since Tempestuous picks up immediately after Darklight ends, any details would spoil the overall effect of the story. What I can say is that if you love stories about the fae and have yet to read this series then your are missing out.
