Carrier of the Mark by Leigh Fallon
5.0
An amazing debut to a promising new series! I absolutely loved it! Megan and Adam were adorable together and all the trials they must overcome to be together just make their relationship that much more interesting and believable (if you're a fantasy lover of course, because I don't know if hosting an element in your body, battling evil villains, and trying to fulfill a prophecy are super believable for a run of the mill normal romance). But I digress. Leigh weaves an intricate tale of love with enough action and conflict to keep the story moving in a great direction.
Megan, an American high school student, moves to Ireland with her father for his job. It's here that she meets Adam DeRis, her soul mate basically. At first Adam is standoffish and avoids Megan, but finally after a boating accident where Megan is knocked unconscious, she and Adam begin to understand that they are destined to be together.
From the start Meg has figured there was something up with the DeRis family. When she finally finds out, the surprise ends up being bigger than expected. She and the 3 DeRis children all have one of the four elements living inside their bodies. Together they must complete an ancient prophecy in order to balance the four elements of the world. Megan and Adam know its what they must do, but if in the process they may lose each other, will either have the heart to go through with it?
With great characters, lots of romance, fantasy elements up the wahoo, and crazy bad guys, Carrier of the Mark is a must read. My only regret/ sadness lies with the fact that book 2 isn't scheduled to come out until 2013. SO FAR AWAY! Anyway I recommend it! 5 out of 5 stars! :D
