This one gets 3.5 stars from me. I wish I could give it 4 stars but I don't think it reached that level for me. 
 So, to say that The Iron Daughter is a love story would be a complete understatement. This book is all about the romance between Meghan Chase, half-human daughter of The Summer King, Oberon, and Prince Ash, prince of the Winter Court. Now, of course, there's lots of action and adventure so if you're looking for that, then fear not, your needs will be satisfied. :) The ever reliable character-to-turn-to-for-humor Puck is as always, humorous and in this novel, I do feel a little sorry for him. Why? Because really, at the heart of The Iron Daughter is Meghan and Ash's love story. Can you say Romeo and Juliet? The novel is full of heartbreak on the part of Ash, something I felt was justifiable seeing his role as the Winter prince, but what I really, really enjoyed about this story was that Meghan was a really strong character in the relationship as well. She wasn't one of those heroines who pines and pines for her lost love. No, she takes control of the situations and while there's a little pining, it quickly gives way to the action and adventure. 
 The ending was something I wasn't expecting but seeing as how the novel progressed, the ending really shouldn't be a major surprise. I do have some theories about Meghan's parentage, as I am sure all who have read the novel will be speculating as well. I am interesed in reading The Iron Queen to see if any of my theories are right and of course, to learn more about Meghan and Ash's relationship but I won't be rushing out to get the book..
