Gilded Wings:(Fallen Fae Gods Book 1) by Jaymin Eve

One call changed the course of my life forever.

When my phone rings after a night drinking with my best friend, I had no idea my whole world was about to change.

“A book is missing,” a deep, unnaturally enticing voice growls down the line.

Panicked, I race out to Dragerfield Library, breaking all the rules—even if a book is missing, we’re only allowed on property during the day.

But if I don’t find that ancient tome, I’ll be fired anyway.

“You should have waited until morning, human.”

Too late to retreat, I soon learn why the rules exist. Dragerfield is a doorway between worlds. A doorway to Risest, the Faerie realm. A realm they access at night.

And I’m the moronic human who wandered uninvited into their midst.

The fae use humans for two reasons: entertainment, and well, you can use your imagination for the other.

Even worse, the voice on the line that set all of this in motion is no ordinary fae. Drager, with his dragon scales and smoky scent is one of their gods. A Fallen Five.

My new captor.

A missing book is the least of my worries now.

I’d thought I was about to be fired, but instead, I’m heading to Faerie.

And it might be a one way trip.

My Review

I love the map at the beginning of the book. So I don’t love that this is mostly from her POV, and we don’t even get her name immediately. In chapter 6, we can finally get a name for the character: she is Morgan. Morgan is a librarian at the Dragerfield Library. She and her best friend Lexie work at this strange library in Maine. It seems to house otherworldly books and more. She is very human but loves her job and her life.

One night, her world changes as she ends up at the mysterious library in the middle of the night. Turns out her bestie isn’t who she thinks she is. But I’m more fascinated with Drager, the Sun God. Omg, the fact that her bestie is a paranormal and the library is a portal to a Faerie world is remarkable.

Somehow, her circumstances get even more bizarre with now a faerie fertility event in the library on Earth and, of course, the God of the Sun as her unexpected partner. This story gets hot and steamy. And I’m wondering what now?

I’m enjoying the fantasy parts of this story in the other world. Drager is possessive and Alpha, but he finally agrees to Morgan learning something important. She gets sent to learn about Faerie at the neutral academy. This should be intriguing; her humanity is still coming into play. Her time at the academy, learning curve, and new experiences are fascinating. Also, her connection to the fallen.

Ah, this book ends on an adventurous cliffhanger. Of course, Morgan in this fantasy land of Dragons and fallen gods is captivating. I definitely want to read more in this series.
