Synopsis:
Elara:
As an infant, I was abandoned on the steps of a church. 
My childhood was spent in an abusive foster home.
At nineteen, I killed someone. 

Not long after, three men in black cloaks kidnap me and whisk me through a magical portal to a world I never knew existed. A world they say is my home. But the enchanting realm of Celestria is in turmoil. A dark enemy has infiltrated the land and is attempting to seize control. The last hope of the people of Celestria is locating Changelings in the mortal world… like me.

Yet an assessment of my magic leads to a shocking revelation. Someone used a powerful spell to suppress my powers. But who? And why? 

Prince Kage Dargan:
The moment I see her, my world pauses. 
Though we’ve never met, the girl is familiar to me. 
Since I was a boy… she has visited me in my dreams. 

Even so, I can’t let my guard down around her. The last Changeling I trusted tried to kill me. Besides, my attraction to her is a temptation I can’t risk. My parents arranged my upcoming marriage years ago and breaking that pact could have steep consequences. 

Still, I have to wonder why the girl from my dreams has finally appeared. Is it fate? Or something far more sinister?

***My Thoughts***

Note: This review contains NO spoilers

Wow! What a story filled with magic, drama, romance, and action! I was completely whisked away to a world filled with mystery and mysticism. Cameo's world building and character development had me mesmerized, and had my imagination going, from beginning to end. As for pacing, I thought that the steady pace of the story was in perfect sync with Elara's adventurous and developing journey on finding the truth of her life and home world.

Only one problem.... This first book in the Star Kissed series ends with a cliffhanger... Ha! Yes! A CLIFFHANGER... ! Why!?! Just when the intensity of drama and action was getting so dang good! It definitely got my heart racing and kept me at the edge of my seat! 😮

Those Savage Stars is an absolutely riveting page-turner into a dark fantasy that had me from the beginning. I look forward to the next book to find out what happens next for these enthralling characters from that enchanting world.
