Blurb:
For eighteen-year-old Rouen Rivoche, being a fairy princess
isn’t about fancy parties and happily ever afters.
Rouen’s people are the dark Fae whose powers of lightning,
thundersnow, and all things Winter make them cold, severe, and 100% intolerant
of rebellion.
Too bad being a rebel is in Rouen’s blood.
Against tradition, she’s teamed up with Syl Skye, the
sleeper-princess of the fair Fae—a mortal enemy who Rouen should want to kill
but only wants to kiss. Plus, to be with Syl, Rouen’s masquerading as a glam
goth-rock star and human high school student. Honestly, Rouen doesn’t think
things could get any more complicated.
Then, she discovers she must become Queen of the Winter
Court or all her people will die. No pressure.
Now, dark forces are amassing in the Winter Court, turning
Rouen’s people against her and blocking her path to the throne. Even Syl with
all her powers of white flame and Summer can’t stop this new kind of evil.
Because betrayal cuts close when it’s someone you love… and
now it looks like Rouen’s going to be dethroned before she ever becomes queen.

My Review:
Rouen and Syl are still looking for ways and times to be
alone together so that they can snuggle with their favorite girl. But it is
Christmas and spending some alone time together would be a great Christmas
present for the both of them.
After they have a wonderful Christmas dinner with Syl’s mom
Rouen is awakened during the middle of the night from dead sleep to the sound
one of the most horrible screams she has ever heard. She awakes to find Syl in horrific
pain and soaking wet. When she sees that Syl is injured she knows right away
that it was a dark fae. To save Syl Rouen must travel to her home land to the
Winter Court.
After saying goodbye to Syl and opening the ley-lines she is
just about to step through to the other realm when Syl grabs a hold of her and
is brought through with her. When they reach the other realm Rouen wants to
send Syl back she is unable to reopen the ley-lines again as they are not
obeying her commands.
Upon her arrival in the Winter Court Rouen learns that an
evil force has taken control of the dark fae. If Rouen can’t find a way to stop
this evil force then her people will die and what about the love of her life
Syl? What is to become of her? Can Rouen save her people the dark fae? Can she
save Sly? Will she become the Queen of the Winter Court?
I love following Rouen and Syl or their journeys and
traveling to the other realms. I love the world of the Circuit Fae and watching
Rouen and Syl working together to kicka**. They are amazing when fighting alone
but together they are bada**. I have loved each and every book from this series
and am always on the lookout for the next one.
Dethroned is filled with action from the first right up to
the end. It will keep you turning the pages wanting to know what is happening
next. Once I picked it up I couldn’t put it down. Yeah it was that good. I can’t
wait book 3 Inimical.
Do I recommend Dethroned? Yes I do! If you like reading
about the fae, other realms and watching two bada** chicks fight then you will
love Dethroned.
Author Bio:

She enjoys long hikes in the woods (where better to find the fair folk?), believing in fairies (in fact, she's clapping right now), dancing with dark elves (always wear your best shoes), being a self-rescuing princess (hello, black belt!), and writing diverse books about teenage girls finding love, romance, and their own inner power.
She might be planning high tea at the Fae Court right now.
