what a stunning, insanely good story!
Kaegan
🧡 Aiden 🧡 Pascal: a trinity pur sang
We
got an enchanting introduction to the three men at the age of young boys.
Three,
totally different stories, all quite heartbreaking.
Then
the men grow up and we see how they are doing now.
After
Kaegan finally escaped his home, he ends up in London.
Aidan
is drawing and Kaegan is mesmerized by all the details he puts into it. Aidan
is mesmerized by the way Kaegan sees him as no other ever did. They will have a
date the next day, but Aidan never shows up.
“Physical limitations don’t define you. Only the way you think.”
Pascal
meets Kaegan on top of a building where Kaegan convinced Pascal to come with
him.
They
have a passionate night. The next morning Pascal is gone.
“If you choose to say goodbye to the world, you should be sure you’ve
seen all it has to offer.”
Kaegan
is a faerie, he loves to live outside Faerieland, away from his brother who is always
torturing him horribly. It’s forbidden, but Kaegan knows how to enter the
outside world.
Now
he found not one but two guys he’s attracted to with no luck so far of keeping
them.
Miscommunication
and circumstances ensured they miss out every time.
Somehow
Aidan and Pascal, separately and unaware of each other, find their way to the
place Kaegan secretly put in their minds, toward Inverkillen, to find Kaegan.
They both end up in some kind of fairytale environment, where snow is falling
in a magical way and where it’s always Christmas.
When Pascal
get stocked in that place he meets Aiden, there is an undeniable attraction.
Aidan
finds out he has the power to create certain circumstances, he tries with
everything in his power to save Pascal. On this journey, they meet up again
with Kaegan and the heat is on.
Be
aware, I just put this down in a few lines but in reality, it is a wide story
where a lot is happening. Where we get to understand the hard lives of the
three men. I choked up more than once. We get to know the magic of the Faeries and
the limitations of it. We can enjoy their steamy lovemaking, the fun they have,
the love that is growing, also their characteristics gets more and more clear.
I loved them hard.
Still,
there is the revenge-seeking brother and of course Faerieland and the spell who
will separate the three lovers or give them happiness.
A
fabulous and widely written story with not one dull moment. The whole
complicated plot was well thought out and understandably put on paper.
The
awareness there was even more going on than at first sight was overwhelming.
As a
reader I’m always amazed by an author’s gift to writing down what’s in their
head, to write it down in a balanced and good structured way. When something
like this journey is the result I’m just floored. I’m not sure where this comes
from, it’s almost unnatural lol!
I
loved this exceptional story very much!
