Lament: The Faerie Queen's Deception by Maggie Stiefvater

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


Nicely written and hard to put down.

A gifted harpist, Deirdre Monaghan has never been able to conquer her stage fright. So it's not unusual when, before performing at an important competition, Deirdre's nerves overwhelm her. What is strange is the appearance of Luke Dillon, a gorgeous flutist who helps clams her down and then performs a duet with her that wins the competition's grand prize.

Though Deirdre is instantly attracted to Luke, she knows there's something unworldly about him. Surely it's not coincidence that, since his arrival in her life, she's developed telekinetic powers and four-leaf clovers are popping up?

As Deirdre soon discovers, Luke has mysterious ties to the faerie world and other faerie beings appear. Soon she is the center of a faerie conflagration.
