Summary from Goodreads:
Once upon a dark time…

Greta the human bounty hunter never quite fit into the shadowed, icy world of Mylena. Yet she's managed to defeat the demon Agramon and win the love of the darkly intense Goblin King, Isaac. Now Isaac wants her to rule by his side—a human queen. And the very announcement is enough to incite rebellion…

To make matters worse, defeating Agramon left Greta tainted with a dark magick. Its unclean power threatens to destroy her and everything she loves. With the Goblin King's life and the very peace of Mylena at stake, Greta must find a cure and fast.

Her only hope lies with the strange, elusive faeries in the Glass Kingdom…if she can get there before the evil within her destroys everything.

 ~ REVIEW~
5 STARS

I liked this book better than the last especially because of Greta's character. It was a vast improvement. The story of Greta continues with Isaac wanting her to be his queen (loved that) and something within Greta is going on that she needs to journey to the Glass Kingdom with the gang (some new and minus Isaac).

I loved Isaac. He was my favorite character in book 1 and is still is. I was shocked about what happened to him and I was like please let it not be like Dimitri's situation in VA. It's not quite the same but kind of. I actually had to scan the last few pages of the book in order to know where that was going. I won't spoil that part anymore.

There isn't really a love triangle in here despite how Wyatt feels (I'm so happy about that) because Greta knows where her heart truly lies.

The ending, I quite hate and love because it's pretty much a cliffhanger at the same time their situation gets more interesting and a bit complicated.

Overall, I really enjoyed this fast paced fantasy, pack with adventure and it's little twist and turns there. The romance, well, I wished there was more but there wasn't much because of Isaac's situation but one good thing came out of that and that was Greta's feelings for Isaac.

Summary from Goodreads:
While trying to save her brother from a witch’s fire four years ago, Greta was thrown in herself, falling through a portal to Mylena, a dangerous world where humans are the enemy and every ogre, ghoul, and goblin has a dark side that comes out with the eclipse.

To survive, Greta has hidden her humanity and taken the job of bounty hunter—and she’s good at what she does. So good, she’s caught the attention of Mylena’s young goblin king, the darkly enticing Isaac, who invades her dreams and undermines her will to escape.

But Greta’s not the only one looking to get out of Mylena. An ancient evil knows she’s the key to opening the portal, and with the next eclipse mere days away, every bloodthirsty creature in the realm is after her—including Isaac. If Greta fails, she and the lost boys of Mylena will die. If she succeeds, no world will be safe from what follows her back...
