The Faylinn Novels

a Young adult fantasy series

Glimmer begins a Faylinn spin-off duet starring different characters from books 1-3. Even though book 4 begins with a spin-off, It is not recommended to skip books 1-3 before beginning 4. 

Faylinn one

“Was I still a human? Gosh, I still wanted to be human. Even just to keep a sliver of who I thought I was. But as I thought about being human, standing in the shade of the forest, I felt less human than ever. The trees fought for my allegiance."

It started in her chest. The change Calliope didn't see coming. It pulsed like a second heartbeat, urging her to give into the need to be in the depths of the forest. She was compelled to fight the pull, but the more she denied it, the stronger it became until she surrendered and was pulled into a secret world of enchantment.

Kai and Declan needed her to accept what she was, but with everything left unsaid, acceptance was the least of their worries. With the knowledge of their fate in her hands, they'd stop at nothing to protect and prepare her for what awaited them.

Would Calliope undertake what Kai and Declan revealed or would her desire to be normal keep her from acknowledging her true destiny?

READER PRAISE

This book was a breath of fresh air in the YA genre. The flow, the characters, the romance, and the paranormal beings were phenomenal.

Hayes pulled me in with her prologue and I was reading with bated breath until the last page. Truth be told, it took me a day to finish this book; I just couldn’t put it down.

Faylinn two

One decision changed her life forever. One choice could seal her fate for eternity.

By accepting her destiny, Calliope entered the enchanting world of Faylinn. She wasn’t prepared for all the compromises she was forced to make. After being thrown into her duties as queen, she must pick her battles wisely or risk loosing the respect of her kingdom.

With Kai and Declan by her side her confidence rose, but they couldn’t protect her from everything. When Faylinn was threatened Calliope was forced to face an even greater reality than she was prepared for. Haunted by the truthfulness of Favner’s last words, she had no idea what she'd gotten herself into.

Could Calliope hold true to Faylinn’s beliefs while still following her heart, or would she be forced to sacrifice a part of herself to save her kingdom?

faylinn three

Heartbroken and a prisoner in her own castle, it was time for Calliope to take matters into her own hands. Mere days remained until she was bound to Sakari and the Waking Oak was destroyed. It seemed hopeless, but Calliope was determined to fight.

Loyal to the core, Sakari had always respected and followed his father’s direction, but Adair was pushing boundaries Sakari wasn’t sure he wanted to cross. Yet remaining loyal to his kingdom would hurt the ones he loved the most.

Kai had a plan to save Faylinn. It was risky and would require a sacrifice that could cost him his life, but if he didn’t try, Calliope would be lost to him forever.

War in Faylinn was fast approaching. Hearts would be broken. Sacrifices would be made. Lives would be lost. Only the strongest would be left standing.

Luminary was the best book in this series but I will always crave more from the Faylinn world.

FAYLINN FOUR

As everyone tried to find their place in their new normals, life moved forward with no time to pause.

After the Battle of Faylinn, Sarai attempted to pick up the pieces of Rymidon and her heart. When one after another, Rymidonian fae were found dead in their forest, Sarai was forced to set aside the haze of grief and face a new threat.

Cameron did his best taking care of Lia, but she didn’t make it easy. She took up space in his apartment, ate his food, slept on his couch. So, why did the one person who betrayed them all tempt his heart?

Guilt-stricken and lost in the human world, Lia no longer felt she belonged. With only Cameron, who barely tolerated her, to turn to, getting by was a struggle. Why did he take pity on her? And why was Cameron the only one who could be what she needed?

The war may have ended, but the fight had just begun.

Glimmer is now an expanded full-length novel.

READER PRAISE

I would highly recommend this series. I went from a reader who truly hated and refused to read any books on Fae to someone who couldn’t put down a book in this series. The author took such care in creating characters with strong three dimensional qualities that readers could relate too. You can rest assure I will be stalking more books in this series in the future.
— Lisa Markson, Amazon review
I have to say I will forever love this series and these characters. Mindy has done it again! I was skeptical of a few things at first, but dang if she didn’t turn my skepticism into love and hope! And can I just say I DID NOT see THAT coming! I mean wow. Love the way she brought it all together and made me love, already loved, characters even more!

FAYLINN FIVE

In order to save Rymidon from another gruesome war, Sarai showed mercy with a difficult sacrifice, but that sacrifice brought on new strife. Contention within the kingdom with the elves’ presence stirred a rebellion. Still coming to terms with Prince Marcus’s betrayal, her heart and loyalty to her kingdom were on the line. And choosing between the two things she loved most didn’t come without suffering.

Always one to keep a tough front, Lia wanted to shield those she loved from the weakening effects of her transformation, but as her condition worsened, it was impossible to remain hidden. No one had been able to find a cure for a flawed transformation before, but Cameron wasn’t willing to let Lia go.

When Cameron chose a life with Lia and gave up the human world, he knew risks were involved, but he was willing to take a chance to be with the one he loved. As Lia’s health declined, so did the life of the realm, a forewarned disruption of the balance.

With the entire fae race’s fate in jeopardy, they must band together with Calliope and Kai to restore the balance and save the realm or lose it all.
