What a delightful, imaginative surprise. I loved the thoughtful weaving of old Appalachian magic with the stories of these sisters. This story felt deep and emotive. Alicia Aerling's storytelling truly evokes a unique sense of place. I felt like I was in the mountain and was stirred by the connection between the people, land, and folklore. This is a great fantasy read for lovers of wilderness and wildness. Loved it!

Ellie and Dan have a strange romance. Their story follows a predictable path but with a few twists--enough to keep you engaged and rooting for them. At times perhaps a bit unrealistic but then life is full of cosmic coincidences and it's fun to get lost in them. I'd recommend for beach reading or curling up when you need a light/easy story.
