This is a story about two people separated by a physical barrier which is either magic or a miracle, depending on your viewpoint. The 'townies' fear the 'forest folk' and when dark magic started leaking into their town, they decided to put a barrier up to keep out the darkness. At least, that's the story that Ivy believes.

The tale unravels a list of deceptions and prejudices whilst dealing with dark magic and sacrifice. It also deals with love and how deep a love can go, even when circumstances aren't exactly light and fluffy.

It was well-written with no plot holes that I found. The only thing that I found jarred me slightly was the mention of modern technology but that just helped to emphasise the differences between the townies and the forest folk.

A wonderful story that enthralled me, definitely recommended.

Magda and Bronko are sailing to Jamaica. Bronko wants to have a quiet life, however, Magda has other ideas. She wants more than just to settle down and become a wife.


This is the second instalment of the Walk the Walk series. I haven't read the first.

I found this story quite slow going, to be honest. It seemed to take a while to build up to the climax and by the time it got there, I was at the end of the book. I didn't quite enjoy it as much as I hoped. I don't know if it's because I haven't read the first book.


I do like the way the characters get to know each other through the story. You can feel the emotions and feelings becoming entwined between the 2 main characters, as well as the protectiveness of the rest of the crew. There is quite a bit of banter I found myself giggling at, so there are some fun times had.


Give it a read I hope you enjoy
