Ghalien, by Jenna Elizabeth Johnson

This is the fourth book of The Otherworld series and probably my second favorite book of the series.  This book picks up where Ehriad left off.  But unlike Ehriad this isn't a few short stories, it's a full length book from Cade's point of view that parallels the 2nd book of this series Dolmarehn.  With all the books in this series, the book expands on the use of Celtic mythology and introduces you to another monster.  One of the greatest monsters from epic tales.  How will Cade defeat a creature so powerful?

The book starts off right after the attack on Meghan by the Morrigan.  Cade has left his spirit guide Fergus in the mortal world to protect her while she heals and to protect her while he's away.  He was gone for months....If he loves her what could possibly be keeping him away for so long?  

In this book you really get to know Cade better.  You learn how selfless he is and how far he's willing to go to protect the people that he holds dear.  You also learn more about the never ending tortures that his mother puts him through.  I never thought I could hate the Morgann more, but by the end of this book I learned it really was possible.

You can't force love, I realized.  It's there or it isn't.  If it's not there, you've got to be able to admit it.  If it is there, you've got to do whatever it takes to protect the ones you love.
