Gabby will have to learn who she can trust, how to control her own power, and most of all, how to lead a Council of Elementals, most of whom have more control over their power than she does. If she can’t, she’ll find herself just like those 17 schoolmates: burned and six feet under.

Her act of heroism attracts the attention of the evil spirit, and she finds herself entrenched in the middle of a sixty-year-old curse that haunts the school, threatening her own life as well as that of her friends.

My Review
This is a wonderful box set full of different stories each one great and alone worth the price of this box set. 

Eternal Starling by Angela Corbett
Evie has moved to go to college and is enjoying her time their with friends. She is used to the attention her car gets but not so much used to getting attention herself. Now she has two guys wanting to date her. Alex is the first one she dates and while she grows close to him quickly he keeps a distance from her in many ways. He has secrets and lets her no she is his true soul mate right before he leaves her to keep her safe. She meets Emil next and right away they share something great. He doesn't hold back his feelings for her and he begins to fall for him. Now Alex is back saying Emil is evil and she must be careful. Both guys have fought over her for a long time she finds out. She is special and many would like nothing better to get a hold of her. She thought she was normal but she is far from it and has feelings for both guys.

Evie was a great character she doesn't like anyone keeping secrets from her and she doesn't like being told what to do. She is an outgoing girl who most of the time knows what she wants. Alex is very sweet if at times over protective. His fault is he is afraid at times to get to close. I like it best when he lets go and tells how he truly feels. Emil is the sexy bad boy of the three. He may have a dark side but he also is all about protecting Evie and seeing that she is happy.

I really enjoyed this story as all three characters brought something to the story. Yes it may be a love triangle going on but I can see how it would be easy to be confused with these guys around. Each one in their own way is wonderful. There is secrets to unravel and like Evie at times I wasn't sure what to believe when it came to Emil. I liked all the danger in this book and unraveling the mystery with Evie. She truly comes into her own in this book and it was a joy to read.

I will review more of the books later on but the ones I have read so far are great.

4 out of 5 Stars
