“What the hell was that thing?” he finally gasped.

“Kelpie,” I answered.

“So, you get a Fae prince, El gets a hawk, and I get a psychotic water horse who tries to kill me? How is that fair?’ He coughed again.  “You guys haven’t even read Lord of the Rings,” he said again, disgusted.  Pg 263

Seventeen–year-old Eloise Hart knows nothing about the world of Faery until she is kidnapped and held captive by the King of Faery, Lord Strahan. With the help of her friends Jo and Devin, Eloise fights back and learns the truth about her family connection with the Fey. An unexpected twist arrives when a mysterious and handsome young man named Lucas appears to protect and serve Eloise. She learns to trust him, but as the danger increases, so does her newfound love for her courageous Fae knight.

Stolen Away is filled with hysterical one-liners mixed with Faery charm- creating the perfect combination for a best seller. If you liked Holly Black’s Tithe, you will fall in love with Stolen Away.
