Well Done Ms Small

Twilight Lord was a great third book of the series of Hectar. The Subtle hints in book two had taken me in a completely different direction. I hope that this is not the last we see of Lara and the world of Hectar

One of the best!

I am thoroughly excited with the new way Mrs. Small has taken her writing. She can keep me up all night long with her stories, but this one makes me want a reread!!!! WOW!

Best in the series!

I loved this book so much. I enjoyed books one and two but I thought this one was better than the first two. I couldn't put it down. I read it in one day. I'm so happy that Lara decided to have her kids with Varten live with her and Magnus. I did find it odd though that Noss seemed to let them go so easily. She didn't seem to care. I was a huge fan of Lara and Varten's romance in book one, but I've grown to really love reading about her and Magnus. I also liked reading about Vilia and Jonah. There were many love scenes in this book and some of them were really steamy. I think this book is the steamiest book Mrs. Small has ever written. I hope she writes more books in this series. I enjoy reading about Lara's adventures. This is one of the best books I've ever read.

Lara's destiny takes an unexpected emotional turn in the newest WORLD OF HETAR book

Lara, Domina of Terah, born to a mortal father and fairy mother, has long known that she has a destiny that must be played out. Her destiny often wars with her desires as a wife and mother but as a woman she rises to each and every occasion. While waiting for her destiny to be made clear so that she knows what steps to take next Lara visits her friend Noss, who has been caring for Lara's oldest children while Lara fulfilled a part of her destiny. Desperate to find his wife, Magnus Hauk seeks the aid of Prince Kaliq of the Shadow. He quickly learns that dark magic is to blame for Lara's disappearance. Being mortal, he has no power to aid in finding or retrieving Lara and he's forced to rely on Kaliq and Ilona, Lara's powerful fairy queen mother, to find and rescue his wife. Kol, the Twilight Lord of the Dark Lands, revels in the fact that he's managed to steal Lara for himself. The Book of Rule states that a fairy woman is destined to give birth to the next Twilight Lord. Kol knows that she will never come to him willingly and fairies' do not give children to those whom they do not love. He has to devise a way to convince her that she loves him and wants to give birth to his child. His ambition extends beyond that. Kol intends to use her powers to conquer Hetar and Terah. During Lara's visit to the Outlands, she makes the decision to take her older children, Dillon and Anoush, to live in Terah with her new husband, Magnus. It's obvious that Anoush is being influenced by her grandmother and cousin's poisonous words toward Lara and the events surrounding the death of Vartan, Dillon and Anoush's father. Before they begin the journey, Lara disappears from her bed. Dillon, who is coming into magical abilities but is yet untrained, has a strange dream about his mother before he discovers her missing. Dillon relates his dream to Kaliq who realizes immediately what happened, but also knows that this is a part of Lara's destiny that must be played out. Magnus is ready to do whatever necessary to get his wife back. Kol is determined to keep Lara for himself and use her powers for his own evil purposes. Back in Hetar, the self centered and greedy Emperor has learned of Lara's disappearance and plots an attack on what he believes to be a now vulnerable Terah. How will Lara's destiny affect everyone involved? THE TWILIGHT LORD is the third book in Bertrice Small's THE WORLD OF HETAR series. In order to fully appreciate this story and truly understand the characters and their relationships I highly recommend reading the first two books in this series - LARA and A DISTANT TOMORROW. With THE TWILIGHT LORD we're treated to an amazing twist in Lara's destiny which I was stunned by but was so impressed with her ability to adapt and accept that everything that happens in her life has a reason regardless of how difficult it may seem. I loved getting the opportunity to learn more about the characters introduced in earlier books, especially Og,
