5.0 out of 5 stars
wonderful sequel, Aug 8 2009
By Harriet Klausner - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Beguiled (Paperback)
Maggie Donovan defeated evil fae Queen Mab in a classic cat fight (see BEDEVILED). Although the part human part Fae woman will never forget what she witnessed especially never listen to ABBA on a full stomach again, she knows she will never return to her previous lifestyle. Culhane the warrior says she is the Chosen One and struggles with being called Queen Maggie.
Outraged by having her butt kicked in by an impure female, former Queen Mab escapes incarceration and prepares for a rematch as she still believes she, as a purebred fae, is superior to a hybrid fae "diseased" with human blood. Maggie adapts to being the Queen of the Otherworld especially with Culhane as her adviser and lover. As Mab vows not to underestimate her foe, she raises their personal war to higher levels when she kidnaps her adversary's niece at a time when Maggie has doubts about Culhane's motives.
The conflict in this wonderful sequel is on two levels as the heroine begins to question where her lover's loyalty lies and the upcoming war with her evil rival. The story line is fast-paced and filed with action, but it is the strong cast, not just the lead trio, who makes Otherworld seem genuine.

Faeries are real..., Dec 3 2011
By Bella March "Bookaholic, Book Reviewer" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Beguiled (Paperback)
Evil Fae Queen Mab has been let loose from her prison and is back to conquer Queen Maggie: unwitting usurper, part-human, part-Fae. Maggie is getting used to her role as queen in Otherworld, which includes loving Culhane, Warrior and advisor to the queen. Her trust in him dwindles when she suspects he's more after her power than her love. When Maggie's niece is kidnapped by Mab, the two have to come together to rescue the girl and defeat Mab for good.A wonderfully magical world of Fae and otherworldly creatures. The interaction between plucky Maggie and intense Culhane add magic of its own. Interwoven internal and external conflict throughout the story make it an entertaining page-turner but the secondary characters add such tremendous color to the story that one could say they almost stole the show. A great turnout by Maureen Child.

5 Hearts from TRS!, April 26 2010
By Tina Pavlik "Tina" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Beguiled (Paperback)
Maureen Child continues this Queen of the Otherworld Series with another book that will have the reader feeling enthralled by the Fae. It's hard to put down as Culhane's male chauvinism has us gritting our teeth, hoping someone can bring him into the twenty-first century. But he's so loveable we hope he can handle it. Bezel, an ornery but loveable Pixie, isn't gorgeous but he fills the pages he's on with smiles at his skills as chef and his loyalty to Maggie,
The Dullahan and Mab manage to do everything they can to keep the book intense with suspense and their truly nasty dispositions. Maggie's family and friends like Claire, the psychic witch, are excellent characters who give us hope that the future might be secure. Throughout, the romance between Culhane and Maggie is one of those love stories we love to read. On again off again with her feelings, Maggie stands up to the warrior, refusing to give in until he can treat her with respect. Readers can't help but admire her even though she seems to want to sit on the fence if she can, like many of us, when decisions will change lives. Maureen Child continues to prove her writing skills will keep her among my must-read favorites with another excellent tale. - Dee Dailey
