Between The Pages - The Lady of the Mirrored Lake

The Lady of the Mirrored Lake 
Jennifer Ivy Walker 
January 2023 

Hunted by the Black Widow Queen, Issylte--a healer with the verdant magic of the forest--must flee Avalon with the two finest knights in the Celtic realm, both wrongly accused of treason. The trio travels to Bretagne, where Issylte heals a critically injured wolf and obtains fiercely loyal, shapeshifting allies. 

In mystical Brocéliande, Issylte becomes a warrior priestess of the Tribe of Dana and otherworldly mate of the Blue Knight of Cornwall, discovering with Tristan a passion that transcends all bounds. When she becomes the Lady of the Mirrored Lake, sworn to defend the sacred waters of the Goddess, Issylte must undertake a perilous quest to discover what priceless object lies hidden in its murky depths. 

As a nascent evil emerges in a fetid cave, Issylte and Tristan must face a diabolical trio that threatens their lives, their love, and their kingdoms. 

Enchanted. Enflamed. Entwined. Can their passion and power prevail? 

Between The Pages 
This is the second book in The Wild Rose and the Sea Raven series and begins where the first book ended. While I enjoyed the first book, this story held more interest for me because the plot highlighted more of the relationship between Issylte and Tristan who are the stars. Their connection is powerful and unwavering. Several interesting aspects propel this story, especially when Issylte is gifted new powers and the ceremonial bond between her and Tristan. There is a huge cast of characters, so I recommend starting with book one to become familiar with some of the names. Filled with magic, evil, fairies, wizards, and plenty of knights and princesses, this book is long but has a well-developed plot, which ends with an imminent battle to take place in the third installment.
