•••••
REVIEW:FOREWARNED is the first instalment in Chantal Fernando’s adult FATED LOVE erotic, paranormal/fantasy romance series. This is thirty-five year old, Fae Prince Rave, and Fae healer /seer Astrid’ story line.
Told from first person perspectives (Astrid) FOREWARNED follows in the wake of Astrid discovering her fated mate. Astrid wants nothing to do with the Shadow Prince Rave but something about Rave draws her life a moth to a flame. Having spent much of her life with her best friend August, Astrid knows they will remain only friends but having seen and felt her fated mate, Astrid struggles with the discovery of Prince Rave, and the possibility that life as she knows it is coming to an end. There is a supernatural war on the horizon, the vampires are determined to take back what doesn’t belong, and in doing so set into motion a war between the supernatural powers, exposing our heroine for her true nature and power.
The world building is detailed, focusing on the fated mates, blood lines and betrayal, secrets and lies. Raven’s questionable behavior precedes his introduction to our story line heroine but the truth of his behavior may go deeper than Astrid could have ever imagined.
The relationship between Rave and Astrid is one of fated mates but all is not well when all four Fae princes claim Astrid as their own. Rave is determined to claim the woman that calls to his heart, a woman whose powers may be stronger than his. The $ex scenes are passionate and provocative.
We are introduced to several supernatural species including vampires, witches, succubii and shifters including Rave’s brothers Cove, Nico and Elios, their father the King,as well as Rave’s right had man Sore, several supernatural royalty and the requisite jealousy and betrayal.
FOREWARNED is a magical story of power and control; secrets and lies, betrayal and vengeance, jealousy and love. The premise is intriguing and twisted; the characters are animated and charismatic; the romance is seductive and fated. FOREWARNED ends on a cliff hanger-you have been warned.
