Isla doesn’t know how to control her newfound ability and is having trouble concealing it from those close to her.
Whilst on holidays with her boyfriend, Dominic, and cousins, Sarah and Ryan, Isla secretly meets with the Hob, Jack, who takes her to the rock pools to meet Mako. Mako has agreed to teach Isla how to use her ability and manipulate emotions.

I quite enjoyed this Young Adult Urban Fantasy. It was a light read and the descriptive language made it easy to visualise the Fae world and its inhabitants.
I loved the Australian flavour of the story with mentions of Aussie country towns and our unique flora and fauna.

Isla’s character developed well moving from anxious and reluctant to confident and taking charge. Sarah, although I thought was a bit opinionated to begin with quickly grew to become my favourite character.

I felt Isla’s oath was directed towards the younger side of Young Adult 14+. That being said I think the story could have done with a bit more romance and even though I get annoyed with pages and pages of teenage angst I feel a little bit of unrequited love may have been good.
