Description:
Zara and her friends thought they’d solved the pixie problem. And they did — sort of. The pixies are all locked away, deep in the woods. But the king’s needs grow stronger each day that he is in captivity, while his control over his people weakens. And it’s enough to draw a new king into town. Astley claims he is different. He claims there are pixies who can live peacefully with humans, that it doesn’t have to be all violence and nastiness all the time. Zara wants to believe him . . . until Astley also claims that she is fated to be his queen.
There is no way Zara would ever turn pixie. And she’s got good friends who will make sure of that. Besides, she and Nick are so in love they’re practically inseparable. But when the very thing Zara wants to protect most is exactly what’s at risk, she is forced to make choices she never imagined. . . .
Review:
Captivate by Carrie Jones is truly captivating. I decided to bring this book along with me on a road trip to Boston, MA. I began reading it on the drive there (big mistake). I couldn't get enough of this book and so I read as many pages as I could while at the hotel. On the drive home I was finally able to finish the book.
If the need series ever develops and love triangle which it kind of seems it might. I am so team Nick. I cried, I laughed and I found my self wanting more. A year wait is far to long for the next installment of this wonderful series.
I highly recommend this series to those who loved Twilight, the House of Night and the Evernight series.

Product Description:
All Meg has ever wanted is to get away. Away from high school. Away from her backwater town. Away from her parents who seem determined to keep her imprisoned in their dead-end lives. But one crazy evening involving a dare and forbidden railroad tracks, she goes way too far...and almost doesn't make it back.
John made a choice to stay. To enforce the rules. To serve and protect. He has nothing but contempt for what he sees as childish rebellion, and he wants to teach Meg a lesson she won't soon forget. But Meg pushes him to the limit by questioning everything he learned at the police academy. And when he pushes back, demanding to know why she won't be tied down, they will drive each other to the edge -- and over....
Review:
Going Too Far is a must read. This story is truly unforgettable.
Meg goes too far one night and as punishment is assigned to follow John on night shifts for one week during spring vacation.
Both Meg and John have been effected by tragic events in their past. Each go to very extensive lengths to leave their lives in accordance to how their past has influenced them.
Meg has decided to live her life to the fullest and escape this small town she has lived in her entire life.
John intends to live his life by the law.
Both push the other to see the world from their eyes and by doing so push one another too far. The question is, will their love for one another with stand tests, or will they push each other too far.
This is one love story you won’t want to miss. I find myself reading this book again and again.
Jennifer Echols has written two characters that are full of strength and bravery. You will laugh, cry and find yourself routing for each character as they face each obstacle that they come up against.
