Where Thy Dark Eye Glances by Tempest Avery

The Dreamer Triology #0.5




Three hundred years ago Lily Bryg was someone else. Now, she's dealing with demons from the past in the form of ghosts, fairies, and even a dream stalker bent on convincing her they belong together. As a witch, Lily has an advantage. But that all changes when she's summoned back to the third realm she used to live. And where she died.

With the help of a Shade, a tattoo artist, and her three best friends, Lily tries to escape the faeries out to get her, and the evil king who wants to make her his consort. Ronan will stop at nothing to have her back, and she'll stop at nothing to keep that from happening. Too bad her life isn't the only one on the line, and returning to Bevain might be the only way to save herself, and the world.

Review:

Summary: Lily Brygs recalls how she discovered how she and her three best friends were witches from another realm and how Ronan The Dark King is working with the Unseelie King to get her back.

If had read this one first I wouldn't have had the trouble understanding the beginning of All That we see or seem (The Dreamer Triology #1). That being said, I feel that this story planted the bases of the current situation Lily and her friends are facing. It is more detailed even though they can't remember SHIT.. But what did I expect if in this prequel we just get to know more about the life of the characters in NYC (The Other).

BEWARE OF SPOILERS.......

Lily gets a visit from her blonde gorgeous evil stalker Ronan and warns her that her time has run out and she will go back to him sooner than later. She decides to ignore him and doesn't tell her friends about it. She has met a Tattoo artist a couple of months ago and she has decided to get a tattoo in her neck of a celtic knot forming her symbol "The Dreamer" (An Aislingeach). He asks her out and she agrees but ends stood up. The reason??? Her date couldn't make it to the coffee shop because he was attacked by someone and is sent directly to the ER.. Who?!! They figure out The Unseelie king has sent his right had to collect her along with the other three. They fight back in central park and refuse to go back to Bevain the realm they once called home three hundred years ago. 

Lily gets to remember some bits and pieces of her past life. Specially  a guy with blue eyes. Who's the guy?! The one she can't see his hair ... is De- = to Devlin?? Larkin Devlin?! hmmm.. so much to think about ... I knew she was attracted to Ronan always knew it even if she didn't admit it in All that we see or seem ... *sigh*

What will happen next? Will they travel to Bevain? Is she gonna keep dating the tattoo artist? Will she succumb to Ronan´s desires? Please keep reading. I assure you this short story  will totally help you out with the sequel.
