Living ON THE EDGE...
Title: On the Edge
Author: Ilona Andrews
Publisher: Ace Books
ISBN-13: 9780441017805
Description:
Rose Drayton lives on the Edge, between the world of the Broken (where people drive cars, shop at Wal-Mart, and magic is a fairy tale) and the Weird (where blueblood aristocrats rule, changelings roam, and the strength of your magic can change your destiny). Only Edgers like Rose can easily travel from one world to the next, but they never truly belong in either.
Rose thought if she practiced her magic, she could build a better life for herself. But things didn’t turn out how she planned, and now she works a minimum wage, off the books job in the Broken just to survive. Then Declan Camarine, a blueblood noble straight out of the deepest part of the Weird, comes into her life, determined to have her (and her power).
But when a terrible danger invades the Edge from the Weird, a flood of creatures hungry for magic, Declan and Rose must work together to destroy them—or they’ll devour the Edge and everyone in it . . .
Review:
One of the best new series I have read! Ilona Adrews creates a fascinating world with dynamic characters in ON THE EDGE. I was completely sucked in from page 1 and could not put it down! I was so glad to read this on the weekend so I didn't have too. Rose is one of the best heroins I've read with her down to earth attitude and shot gun carrying ways, you just can't help but lover her. What to say about Declan, well he's sexy and powerful, so what more can you ask for? Well, he's also thoughtful, funny and charming. The interaction between Rose and Declan will have you laughing out loud and rooting for them to make it more the whole time.
Living ON THE EDGE is difficult to say the least. Rose and her little brothers, Jack and Georgie, are the outcasts that no one knows how to react to. Things turn around a bit when creatures begin to make their way from the Weird, the magical realm that mirrors the non-magical Broken, and rain havoc on their small community that sits between the realms. With the help of Declan, who has crossed over from the Weird to follow these creatures, they go against the evil that is raining down on them and gain the respect from the people who have disliked them for as long as Rose can remember.

The next in the series is BAYOU MOON and is scheduled to be released late October 2010. I can't wait to read the next installment of the Edge Series!!! Read a snippet here
