"I don't do patrols, I don't go hunting, I just stick close to you.  You live your life.  I'll keep you safe, " Tamani said,   sweeping a lock of hair from her face.  "Or die trying."

Laurel hasn't seen Tamani since she begged him to let her go last year.  Though her heart still  aches, Laurel is confident that David was the right choice.

But just as life returns to normal, Laurel realizes that a hidden enemy lies in wait.  Once again, Laurel must turn to Tamani to protect and guide her, for the danger that now threatens Avalon is one that no faerie though would ever be possible.  And for the first time, Laurel cannot be sure that her side will prevail.

My review:

The whole wing series is a different take on faeries.  In Illusions Laurel is still having a love triangle between David and Tam.    Am I team David or team Tam?  Team Tam all the way!!  What he has done and is still doing for Laurel just gets to my heart every time.  In book 3 of the series Tam has enrolled in Laurel school to keep a better eye on Laurel, to much dismay of David and Laurel.  Between danger and jealously some of the dynamics changes with the characters.  There is a new enemy in town and everyone is trying to find out before its too late and the gate to Avalon is breached.  Grab this book, it wasn't my favorite of the series but it did leave me wanting more from book 4, coming out in Feb., 2012.
