Her YA stories hold a bit of the fantastical and there’s always a hot romance. She resides on Long Island with her husband, two kids and one very snuggly pit bull.

MY OPINION:
I really liked this book. It doesn't bore you. You would wake up the whole night to finish it.. LOL! I didn't do it as I always have a busy schedule. Thank God, I read some 'guy power' because I have read enough 'girl power'. Tilton Thumbs up!!

RATE: 4.8/5

PRAISE:
"I was addicted to this amazing piece of fantasy. It had what every fantasy reader love: a handsome hero, magic, love triangles, survival of attacks, and twists and turns. It was one killer novel! Tilton writes every chapter with suspense to maintain the interesting story."
