Into the Dreaming by Karen Marie Moning

I couldn't find a blurb online about the book. And I'm not going upstairs to grab my book to type it out.

Plot: The Unseelie King makes a bargain with Aedan ( I think that's how you spell it). Spend five years with the king and he'll spare Aedan's life and his clans. Aedan agrees. However, the king fails to mention he meant fairy years. Translates to five centuries. During this time, Aedan slowly forgets his past and is trained to be an assassin. But... at the end of the five years, Aedan is to return home for 30 days. If he is loved and he loves in return, he is free. If not, he belongs to the king.

So the Seelie Queen decides to help Aedan out. She sends an enchanted tapestry to the woman who is to save Aedan. She arranges it so the the couple will meet in dreams.

Meet Jane. She's trying to get her book published, however, the editors reject her for too much purple prose. Jane thinks by writing about the hunky highlander she see's in her dream will get rid of him. Then in the mail, she receives a tapestry. The next morning she's medieval Scotland.

What I liked: I liked when Jane "accidently" leave a few pages of her book in the hall. Of course they are the steamiest scenes. But she leaves them in hopes of seducing Aedan. It works.. kind of. For short story, it wasn't rushed. They didn't rush into having sex. Which is a plus for me.

What I didn't like: I had some questions when the story ended. For example, there is a remark that the Unseelie king had a plan. He didn't seem to upset that he lost Aedan. So I'm thinking maybe we'll get more answers in the the Fever books? I don't know.

Grade: B-
