Fairyproof: The Realm's Salvation Book 1

Monique is a fairy, hiding in the human world because her brother Kieran, is trying to control her and arrange her future after their parents' death.
Constantly having to move from state to state, as Kieran is hot on her trail, Monique finds herself working for Daniel, the first human she has ever met that her fairy powers don’t work on.

Previously, I had only read Constance’s romance novels, so I was pleasantly surprised to find that she had written an urban fantasy. I was excited to dive in and as usual, she did not disappoint. I really enjoy Constance’s writing style, it’s easy to read and well-paced.

I loved reading about the fairy world, their lore and politics. The plot is full of mystery, as Kieran tries to figure out who is responsible for the murdered fairies, whilst also hunting down his sister to take her home. He really thinks he’s doing the right thing protecting Monique, and you won’t like him but there’s more to Kieran than meets the eye.
Then we have the simmering tension and chemistry between Monique and Daniel. I was so shocked by how this storyline developed, it has some great twists and turns that I honestly didn’t see coming.

Overall, this was a 4⭐️ read and I definitely recommend you give it a read. I can’t wait to start the next book in the series.

When you hear the word Fairy, most of us think tiny little creatures with wings. Which don't get me wrong I love them too, but these fairies are no TinkerBell and I couldn't be more excited.Constance Phillips has opened the gate so to speak to a whole new realm where Fairies with mystical powers reside.Monique is on the run hiding out in the human world from her brother Keiran that is trying to force her to marry not for love but for protection.

How hard could it be to get a job you have no skills for. Simple right or is it?Daniel is in need of a new assistant that can handle his work load as efficient as the assistant that is leaving. While interviewing Monique for this job, it appears on paper that she has no skills for the job and and concludes the interview.

Is He the only human to be immune making him Fairy Proof? or Is there more than meets the eye?This is a great start to this series. Can not wait to dive back into this fairy world with the next book.

This is the first book in The Realm's Salvation series. I have read multiple books from the author and once again she has written a good book. This book can be read as a standalone but the story is not complete so why stop without knowing what happens to Monique and Daniel?Keiran Saysin wants his sister Monique to marry Eero who is a powerful fairy. She has no interest in marrying him especially after he tried to force himself on her twice. She flees into the human realm to hide. She wants to live a life of her own choosing. Not one forced on her by family or fairy tradition.  With her fairy powers hiding among the humans should be easy even if her brother is searching for her.Daniel Elliot is a human whom Monique cannot influence with her powers. They fall in love. But can they find true happiness with secrets and family betrayal coming between them?Not all is as it seems in both the human and fairy Realm's. Eero is power hungry as are other fairies and will do anything to attain more power. As Eero leads a revolution, no one is safe. Who can be trusted?I really enjoyed this book and I think you will too! I look forward to reading more about these characters.

This was a really great book. I was instantly drawn into the story and it kept my attention throughout. I loved following the story of Monique and Daniel. My heart went out to Monique from the very beginning. But I found myself rooting for Monique and Daniel pretty quickly. I loved following their story. All the characters in the book were great.The author has written in such a way that keeps your attention. I look forward to the next book in this series. I give this book 5***** all the way around. It was a great read and I definitely recommend it.

The world created and the way the mythology keeps your attention and holds your interest made this an enjoyable read. The characters were likable and you could tell they were well thought out; however it took me a while to warm up to them.Fairyproof is a sweet romance with an interesting view on fairies. If you are looking for action and romance with a different spin, this is a good read. I’m looking forward to seeing what’s next.TCOI received a copy in exchange for an honest review.

This my first time reading one of Constance Phillip's book and the first time reading a book about fae.Monique is on the run from the fairy world and living among the humans. She is running form her brother Keiran who is forcing her to marry someone she doesn't want,he wants to be able to chose who she loves - which is only fair right?She has been on the run for six months and in the time her brother has almost caught her but she keeps managing to move on just in the nick of time, Using alias to get jobs she applies for a position where she tires her fairy magic only to discover it had no effect.Daniel Elliot is intrigued with Monique and despite himself he finds himself wanting to hire her. Daniel is unlucky in love, his fiancé disappeared along with his grandpas ring and nothing had been seen or heard from her since. He has tried to find her but always draws a dead end.The sub-plot that is also going on within the main storyline was rather good. I really enjoyed this story and after my initial thoughts of not connecting with Monique I warmed to her more as the story progresses.

Delightfully enchanting. The story moved along well, the characters were well drawn, it held my interest all the way to the end.

This is not my genre of books, but I met Ms. Phillips at an author event and we struck up a friendship. I have read several other of her contemporary romance books, but dragged my feet at reading Fairyproof. What a mistake! From the beginning of the book until the last page, I was truly mesmerized. As the story weaved its magic, I forgot all about not liking fantasy books (with fairies and powers and different worlds, and such nonsense) and was totally drawn in to the story. I always judge a book based on how long the characters live in my imagination after I have finished the book, and with this book, they will live for quite some time. The characters in Fairyproof came alive with a believable story of family, deception and love. In the end, I was routing for the bad guys to get their due and for Daniel and Monique to get their HEA.I will not hesitate to read another on of Ms. Phillips books regardless of the genre. You will not go wrong with purchasing and reading this book. A truly acceptation story.

Constance Phillips is a new writer that has done an exceptional job of writing. Really enjoyed this book and looking forward to reading Resurrecting Harry.

I read this book when it first came out. I loved it . The book kept my attention all the way to the end...I would like to see the story continue.

Love love the book so much:)I recommend that people should read this book because its amazing and wonderful!I've read this book over and over again.

I really enjoyed this story. Monique is a bit out of her element in the business world, but determined to succeed and not let Daniel down. Her brother and his partner are determined to hunt her down and make her marry the detestable and treasonous, Eero, but she has found a friend in Billy, an exiled fairy, and is becoming more and more comfortable in the human world. The subplot of the planned coup and her brother's part in it is worthy of a book of its own and enhances this story extremely well. I loved the author's descriptions of both the human world and the fairy world, and Daniel will give the reader some excellent surprises.MauraReviewer for Coffee Time Romance & More

Monique has fled to the human world to escape an arranged marriage to a less-than-worthy fairy. Although tough, she manages to get by each day by taking various jobs and moving every couple of months all the while relying on her fairy power that allows her to manipulate humans. But when she meets Daniel, everything changes. I really enjoyed seeing this story develop and was pleasantly surprised with how all of the plot points ended up melding together into one. I had my suspicions of Daniel's family but did not expect who the runaway fiancée was. It was a little difficult for me to get into the instant love between Daniel and Monique, and I honestly struggled with it up until the very end. But once Daniel's family history was revealed, I was able to believe that there could be an innate attraction between the two within a very short amount of time. The character development was really well done, and I especially enjoyed Billy. Monique tended to be a little too whiny at times when it came to her jealousy over Veronica, but that was usually overshadowed by the rest of the great dialogue and character interactions. Constance has created a believable world that any urban fantasy fan would surely enjoy.The Good:I love fairies and think Constance did a wonderful job incorporating their mythology into the human world. Totally my cup of tea!The Issue:There seemed to be several instances when the POV would change mid-chapter. This threw me off and I was forced to re-read some sections in order to understand which character we were hearing from.In summary:Fast paced, great characters and an entertaining read.Originally appeared at [...]

I don't usually read paranormal romance, but I enjoyed Fairyproof. The world that Constance Phillips created is deep and fascinating. It was well thought out and populated with interesting people. I would love to know more about it. I found the characters a little uneven in that it was easier for me to warm up to some of them than others. I found Daniel likable from the beginning, Monique grew on me, but I pretty much wanted to slap Keiran upside the head for the entire novel. However, this might have been what the author was going for.Overall the prose was well-written and easy to read. I guessed all of the plot twists long before they happened, but that didn't take away from my enjoyment of the book.

I really enjoyed this book. I love how we are not told why she ran away until later in the book. It adds mystery and suspense. I thought that Daniel was great. He was sweet and understanding. Another great thing about this book was that we got to see some parts from Monique, some from Daniel and some from Keiran. We got to see how each character looked to the other. Like we knew what was going on with Monique but when we saw her from Daniel's point of view, you would never know all the craziness in her life. We also got introduced to more characters this way. There is so much conflict within Monique. Right from the beginning you know that she doesn't want to lie about her name or who she is. She wants to talk to and trust her brother but doesn't feel like she can forgive him for what he did.I was given a copy of this book for an honest review.

I highly recommend this first novel by Constance Phillips. It combines mystery, danger, fantasy, and romance into one finely tuned read. The characters are dynamic and memorable and thoughtfully crafted. I can't wait for the second book which will be out in 2013.

Fairyproof caught my attention immediately and held it throughout. I enjoyed the fairy mythology and and the world that Constance creates for her characters. I also thought it was the perfect blend of action and romance. I am looking forward to reading more from this author!

Great story! The entire story tied together so well, and kept me on the edge of my seat. As soon as I thought I had something figured out there was a new twist.

This was provided by the author for an honest literary review.FAIRYPROOF BY Constance Phillips4.5 starsWhen got me with this book is the fact that Monique a fairy is running from her family, something I wish I could do sometimes. Although her reasoning is to get away from Eero who wants to bond with her and it's something that she doesn't want because he's an evil fairy. Me I just want to run away for me time. While on the move she realizes that she needs a job to make money because she used all of her stones. I want to say that it seems like it works the same as money in the fairy world.She ends up answering a receptionist ad for a man named Daniel who owns a financial company. who is also a human. Totally against fairy rules.She is instantly attracted and unbeknownst to her, so is he. But he had just got out of a relationship because his ex just left him before, taking his ring with him.I don't want to give away too much in this review. There is a lot going on in this book.Brother trying to track down Monique, Eero the evil Fairy trying to locate her and bond with her, dealing with the death of her parents. And unlocking some secrets that could either help the Council continue to strive or cause Eero to cause the Council to crumble and have him as ruler of the Fairy world.I would definitely recommend this book. It IS different from most other paranormal books. Which is why I enjoyed it. Well I must go before I burn my dinner, but hey, maybe then I could be alone because everyone else will go get themselves something to eat, instead of bothering me every minute while I was trying to write this.Happy Reading!!!!
