Summary
Queen of the fae courts。 Faced with an impossible battle。 Destined to never be with the Unseelie I love。
The magical tea has worn off。 My eyes are wide open。 And it’s with horror that I realize the fate of two realms rests on my shoulders after my mother’s ultimate sacrifice to trap Rubezahl in Underhill。
Terrified humans clamoring for answers， whispered rumors from both Seelie and Unseelie， and a stepmother who seeks the throne for surprising reasons are the least of my troubles。
Rubezahl has returned far sooner than I thought possible。 I’m not ready。 I can’t win this。 And not only that…
He has something crucial if we are to win。 He’s taken something I cannot live without。
The place of the final battle has been decided， and two armies will meet。 Yet forces beyond my understanding must be satisfied first--old magics rise and demand their dues。
There is no option but to race and decipher the puzzle to save the man I love， the friends more important to me than my own life， and humans and fae alike。
Two realms。
Only I can save them。
We’re screwed。
If you can’t get enough of Sarah J。 Mass， Holly Black， or Jennifer L。 Armentrout， you will love this vibrant world where impossible love and an explosive pace will leave you breathless！

Even with all the lies， deceit， and betrayal that Alli has faced， she doesn't give up。 She fights and sacrifices for her people， and for her love。 This story picks up where the previous left off。 With twists and turns， this story will have you feeling all the feels。 Although the end does answer most questions and ties things up nicely， while you're reading this story you will think you have it all figured out。。 and then you'll realize you were wrong。 Kelly and Shannon outdid themselves from star Even with all the lies， deceit， and betrayal that Alli has faced， she doesn't give up。 She fights and sacrifices for her people， and for her love。 This story picks up where the previous left off。 With twists and turns， this story will have you feeling all the feels。 Although the end does answer most questions and ties things up nicely， while you're reading this story you will think you have it all figured out。。 and then you'll realize you were wrong。 Kelly and Shannon outdid themselves from start to finish。 。。。more

I have throughly enjoyed the writing collaboration of Shannon and Kelly。 The writing is seamless and flows so well。 A Crown of Petals and Ice starts right off with action and heartbreak。 I had forgotten how much I love Alli。 She has been thrust into a situation that she is not prepared for but navigates beautifully。 I applaud her big heart and selfless character。 She does everything for ALL fae even if they are on the opposing side。 Her happily ever after is perfect。 Shannon never fails to bring I have throughly enjoyed the writing collaboration of Shannon and Kelly。 The writing is seamless and flows so well。 A Crown of Petals and Ice starts right off with action and heartbreak。 I had forgotten how much I love Alli。 She has been thrust into a situation that she is not prepared for but navigates beautifully。 I applaud her big heart and selfless character。 She does everything for ALL fae even if they are on the opposing side。 Her happily ever after is perfect。 Shannon never fails to bring tears to my eyes and make me laugh out loud like a crazy person。 I am excited to see what both of these authors do in the next books。 。。。more

A Crown of Petals and Ice is the 3rd book in this trilogy， and I have to say， it's been a wild ride！ Authors Kelly St。 Clare and Shannon Mayer truly shine with this series。 I was fortunate to score an advanced reader copy， and my review is both spoiler-free and my own。 I love how these authors create strong female main characters。 Kallik of All Fae is the perfect example of this。 She's a beautiful blend of hard and soft- intelligent， physically and mentally strong， but also kind， caring， and vul A Crown of Petals and Ice is the 3rd book in this trilogy， and I have to say， it's been a wild ride！ Authors Kelly St。 Clare and Shannon Mayer truly shine with this series。 I was fortunate to score an advanced reader copy， and my review is both spoiler-free and my own。 I love how these authors create strong female main characters。 Kallik of All Fae is the perfect example of this。 She's a beautiful blend of hard and soft- intelligent， physically and mentally strong， but also kind， caring， and vulnerable。 The authors allow her to be a full and complete woman with a love interest that complements but doesn't eclipse her。 Her feminine softness is appreciated as part of who she is， not seen as a weakness that needs changing。 She's no damsel in distress， but is allowed to feel her emotions without being reduced。 She's dynamic and bright， comfortable with herself and her femininity， and an all around badass。 Fans of strong female main characters， fae， and overcoming seemingly insurmountable odds will love this series。 Definitely recommend！ 。。。more

Bittersweet The hourglass has flipped on Kalli's destiny as A Crown of Petals and Ice， the third and final in this series， opens。 Being a queen isn't all it's cracked up to be， and the crown weighs heavily on Kalli's head。 Having read between the lines of the Oricle's whacky pronouncements， she begins to ready herself for the looming battle。 Knowing that she must face her destiny alone， Kalli pushed those she loves away for their protection， as well as the protection of her own heart。 Refusing t Bittersweet The hourglass has flipped on Kalli's destiny as A Crown of Petals and Ice， the third and final in this series， opens。 Being a queen isn't all it's cracked up to be， and the crown weighs heavily on Kalli's head。 Having read between the lines of the Oricle's whacky pronouncements， she begins to ready herself for the looming battle。 Knowing that she must face her destiny alone， Kalli pushed those she loves away for their protection， as well as the protection of her own heart。 Refusing to be sidelined， those that love Kallik take matters into their own hands。 Knowing that life never goes according to plan， Kalli embraces the future and whatever a new day brings。 A Crown of Petals and Ice is an involved read。 Full of action， but at its core， it's a timeless tale of good versus evil。 Filled with the warmth of friendship， laughter and loyalty， it also flips that coin to show sacrifice and betrayal。 But most of all， it's a story of ageless love。 You'll shed tears only to turn the page to burst into laughter。 You'll burn at the sharp edge of betrayal， and warm at the loyalty of friends and some odd characters。 But it's the sacrifice that will bring tears， have a box of tissues at hand。 In the end， the question you must ask is what you're willing to sacrifice for love。 Happiness comes at a price， the world itself comes at a price as well。 This book is beautifully written， the action and humor a solid foundation for the themes found within its pages。 You'll love it all。 Bravo to Kelly St。Clare and Shannon Mayer， well done。 Well done indeed。 。。。more

In the spirit of honesty， I went between four and five stars here。 First， I really loved the character growth through this series and in this book。 I love that the FMC wasn't just， "Of course I can do this， I'm awesome！" She grows。 She admits what she can and cannot （or thinks she cannot） handle， but she isn't whiney either。 She knows it will be hard but tries anyway。 The MMC fit a little more in a box in this book， but he was still very swoon-worthy。 I adored the Easter eggs throughout this boo In the spirit of honesty， I went between four and five stars here。 First， I really loved the character growth through this series and in this book。 I love that the FMC wasn't just， "Of course I can do this， I'm awesome！" She grows。 She admits what she can and cannot （or thinks she cannot） handle， but she isn't whiney either。 She knows it will be hard but tries anyway。 The MMC fit a little more in a box in this book， but he was still very swoon-worthy。 I adored the Easter eggs throughout this book。 The ending threw me a bit。 That is where the four stars debate came in。 However， I went with five because I realized that the reason I was so back and forth about it was because I was so invested。 I truly believe that for me to still be thinking and debating on it is answer enough。 It's not five stars because it is exactly like I would have written it—but that's why I'm not the author！ It's five stars because I can't stop thinking about it and I only want what is best for someone who doesn't even exist。 。。。more

Kelly St。 Clair and Shannon Mayer are a force to be reckoned with。 Put them together writing a series and you get pure magic。 From the first book I fell in love with these characters and wanted more， more， more。 This book does not disappoint。 They kept me on my toes and drew me so deep into the story I read it straight through in one sitting。 Next up will be the audio book version， I just love it all so much。 What a great conclusion and I really hope they come back to this world again。

Oh， my heart！ Alli and Lan’s story concludes in this epic story。 My heart is happy and so incredibly sad。 This book is action- packed and full of surprises- I wasn’t prepared for some of them。 I’m still reeling a bit from the ending， in a good way。 It definitely ends with a bang！ I am so happy we get to go back to Unimak in future stories。 These ladies are a great writing duo and this series is definitely a must read。

What An Ending！ I was on the edge of my seat。 I loved and hated every minute of this action packed finale。 But， nevertheless， I was very happy with how the story was concluded。 Lan held my heart from the first book and I hope to see more characters and stories emerge in this awesome world these two rockstar authors created。 Alli’s Journey to find her own power was gripping from the start and kept going strong all the way to the last page。 Please give me more of your power women！

Another action packed book written seamlessly between Shannon and Kelly！ I was on the edge of my seat through all of the twists and turns through this final battle。 I have thoroughly enjoyed Kallick and her strength and sacrifice she has continued to give to help her loved ones and her kingdom。 Faolan has been such a great counterpart and has grown so much as well。 I loved how their story came to an end。 Prepare for a roller coaster of emotions！
