Our heroine, Belle, is whisked away in the first book into the world of Fae she knows very little of. She basically knows they are the enemy which she and her family have been hiding from and she is being forced into servitude that was set into contract 3 centuries ago. “Tempting the King” is book 2 in the Witchling Academy series. The action is fast paced. One conflict after another arises, and through the combined efforts of the Fae King, Aiden, and Belle they stem the tide of the enemy. These are just skirmishes – war is coming. Be prepared to be sitting on pins and needles. D.D. Chance has filled her characters with life. You will not want to put this book down. I impatiently await book 3 – actually, I do not want this series to end. “Tempting the King” is the third installment in D.D Chance “Witchling Academy” series, the third series in the Boston Magic Academy cycle (After “Twyst Academy” and “Monster Hunter Academy”) and while the previous series are outstanding and very worth reading (in case you still don’t know due to some ‘prolonged stay under some rock’), there is not strictly necessary to be acquainted with them to enjoy “Witching Academy”, the previous two series will be waiting for you afterwards, win/win. The Fae as a rule don’t do favours, they bind you with promises, that you are never ever able to break. Belle is fully aware and intends to acknowledge the contract (because let us be real a promise to a Fae is a binding contract with particularly “small print”, bound to bind you forever 😉), but the straightforward approach: teaching magic to King Aiden, helping him to defend the realm, and get him to set her free, will not exactly do, specially as Belle seems intended in putting any and all of Aidan buttons. In Belle’s defense, putting Aidan’s buttons is sooo fun 😊 Aidan has already make the first mistake, falling for Belle (don’t tell him, he will deny and make you promise some nonsense 😉); and Belle has an ingenious plan: unravel a three-centuries old ploy and convince the King he’s been played, it should go smoothly… should it NOT 😉. Belle and Aidan have chemistry to fill a full college syllabus, Belle is credible, relatable, and fun, fun, fun and His Majesty, the High King of the Fae Aidan the most entertaining Fae TDHD (tall, dark, handsome, with a side of deadly) ever to graze the pages of YA Academy. This series have everything I love in academy and hold and behold it is not RH, nothing against RH, but I much prefer a more classical, slow approach to romance, thus it seems Chance has done it again, I just got ‘hooked’ in a new series 😊 I’m a huge fan of D.D. Chance writing, by any of her various pen-name incarnations. She writes it, I read it 😊, and never ever have I been disappointed in the least. Her writing style is unique, a mixture of hardcore adventure and whimsicality, that makes the book simultaneously light and surprisingly deep, with characters that show very real-life qualities in seemingly fantasy situations, an impeccable delivery, action-packed, fast-paced, and still with a carefully character description and a rich rendered YA/NA paranormal fantasy world. Chance possesses a rare gift for storytelling that turns every story into a reader’s delight. sem críticas | adicionar uma crítica

But, now? The action is just non-stop! I love every minute of it! Seriously, Belle and Aiden are having a terrible time figuring out everything needed to fight off the old but strangely unrecognizable enemy of Faerie. They are watching entire groups of Fae be killed and are scrambling, trying desperately to get a handle on saving those remaining. Only, no one left either Belle or Aiden any instructions! And poor Aiden, trying so hard to do the right thing, knowing that his father was not a nice guy and not wanting to follow in his footsteps. But he also doesn't want to lose Belle in the process. It's a harrowing tale and told so well!
DD Chance, a pen name for an author I have loved for years (we all know who she is!), is a great storyteller no matter what genre she chooses. This particular subgenre of paranormal academies, basically college kids with powers given whatever twists the author chooses, was fun when she started with Twyst, followed by Monster Hunters. But now, with Witchling, she has moved on from her "why choose" baseline. We now have a male/female storyline with characters we can follow from book to book while quietly tying in the first two series. She gave us a flowing story that grabs us as we delve deeper and deeper while sitting on the edge of our seats, anxious to see where it will go. Mystery and action, hand in hand. I'm loving every minute of it! Add in a moving love story, and DD Chance is giving us everything we could ask for. I'm now just patiently (or maybe not so patiently!) waiting for book three.
So excellently done, DD Chance! So excellently done indeed! You are a true wordsmith no matter what you write! ( )
