Also goes by the title The Demon Girl
by Penelope Fletcher
Published October 7, 2010
Rae Wilder has problems.... Supernatural creatures swarm the earth, and humanity is on the brink of extinction. Stalked by a handsome fairy who claims she is like him, demonkind, Rae thinks maybe it was a mistake breaking the rules by going over the Wall into demon territory. Plunged into a world of dark magics, fierce creatures, and ritual sacrifice, she is charged with a guarding a magical amulet. The changes to her mind and body are startling, but rather than accept her purpose she struggles against who she is destined to be. Throw in a big lust for a vampire who can't keep his hands off her, and life starts to get complicated. Rae is forced to make the ultimate choice: to live and die human, or embrace her birth-right and wield magics that could turn her into something wicked, a force of nature nothing can control.

First things first: Serious cover love!!!
Okay, where to start? A girl out of her element. We've all been there, so it's easy to sympathize. The really happy thing, though? Fairies. Hello, of course I'm going to like it! I hadn't read the blurb, so the vampire took me by surprise. It was okay, though, because he wasn't such a big part of the book.
This was a really fun, quick read, and (as long as you like fantasy) I think you should give it a shot! It was good enough that I bought the second book the minute I finished the first.
4/5 stars
