FAIRY TALE by: Cyn Balog book review

FAIRY TALE
Author:  Cyn Balog
Publisher:  Delacorte Press
Jacket design:  Marci Senders
Pages: 248

Morgan Sparks and Cam Browne are match made in heaven.  They've been best friends since birth, they tell each other everything and yeah-thery're totally hot for each other.

But a week before their joint sweet sixxtenn bach, everything changes.  Cam's awkward cousin Pip comes to stay, and Cam starts acting distant.  Morgan is stunned when her formerly perfect boyfrined seems to be drifting away.

When Morgan demands answers, she's shocked to discover the reason for Cam's distance.  It isn't another girl-it's another world.  Pip claims that Cam is a fairy.  No, seriously. A Fairy.  And now his people want Cam to return to their world and take his rightful place as Fairy King.

Determined to keep Cam with her, Morgan plots to fool the fairies.  But as Cam countinues to change, she has to decide once and for all if he really is her destiny, and if their "perfect" love can weather an uncertain future.

Witty, orginial and unexpectedly touching, FAIRY TALE is remarkable debut by Cyn Balog that will captivate fans of Twilight and Wicked Lovely.

My Review:

I really enjoyed this book, my favorite of the week.!!  It started and ended with this one book.  Authors don't do that much even though I would love to have a book 2 for where book 1 left off.  Don't want to spoil anything for anyone so here it goes.

Morgan our man female character is dating and has been dating Cam since they were like 5.  They are the PERFECT couple, he is the star quarterback and she is always in the stands supporting him.  Then a week before thier 16 birthday party (the have the same birthday)  Cam turns distance and almost sickly.  All this starts when the new kid Pip comes to live with Cam, saying he is his cousin.  But Morgan knows something isn't right, see Morgan can see the future.  She reads Cam (and I get a sense she may read people but Cam was off limits) she see him in his room devasted and their is this nasty bump on his back.  She thinks its a tumor but according to Pip, Cam is a fairy.  He has to go back to the otherworld to be king.  Can they figure out a way to save Cam and whats the deal with Pip?  It took me a little over a hour to read this book but I LOVED it.  It was a fresh take on Fairies.  They story flowed and had me hooked almost instancely.  If you want a good quick read check this book out. 

Have you read this book?  Thoughts?  Happy Reading
