Dating isn’t easy when you’re in the middle of a blood feud.

Anastasia Vila’s family can turn into swans, but just once she’d like them to turn into responsible adults.

After hundreds of years, they still cling to the blood feud with the Renard family. No one remembers how it started in the first place—but foxes and swans just don’t get along.

Vilas can only transform into their swan shape after they have fallen in love for the first time, but between balancing schoolwork, family obligations, and the escalating blood feud, Ana’s got no time for love. The only thing keeping her sane is her best friend, Pierce Kent.

But when Pierce kisses Ana, everything changes.

Is what Pierce feels for her real, or a byproduct of her magic? Can she risk everything for her best friend? And when the family feud spirals out of control, Ana must stop the fight before it takes away everything she loves.

Thank you to Chapter by Chapter for letting me take part in this tour. I love fantasy books and I’ve been a big fan of YA fantasy so when I read the blurb I was intrigued.

Ana is a girl that, once she falls in love, can turn into a swan. I found the process of this quite bewildering. Not the fact that she could turn into a swan but there was this whole business with cloaks that I found strange.

It was quite obvious from the beginning that Pierce and Ana were meant to be together but Ana was just fighting it so hard that she couldn’t see it yet.

Ana’s family has had a blood feud with the Renards for generations. The feud has lasted so long no-one even knows why it started. This had hints to Romeo and Juliet and I think the author was heavily influenced by this story.

This was a good story with a really good twist but I think the Swan element could have done with a bit more development. It seemed everything they did was a little rudimentary and could do with an update to the 21st century but I enjoyed the book all the same.

About Alyxandra Harvey

Alyxandra Harvey lives in a stone Victorian house in Ontario, Canada with a few resident ghosts who are allowed to stay as long as they keep company manners. She loves medieval dresses, used to be able to recite all of The Lady of Shalott by Tennyson, and has been accused, more than once, of being born in the wrong century. She believes this to be mostly true except for the fact that she really likes running water, women’s rights, and ice cream. Aside from the ghosts, she also lives with her husband and their dogs. She likes cinnamon lattes, tattoos and books.
