A Place Of Magic — Merrie DeStefano

Halloween is the wrong time to visit Ticonderoga Falls.Dangerous monsters hunt in the nearby woods.
 The Prey...Maddie MacFaddin.For her, the nearby forest holds many memories, some joyous, some forgotten. But she has no recollection of Ash, the dark, magnificent creature who saved her life as a child, or that his kind preys upon humanity. The Monster...Ash, a Darkling fae.Trapped in Ticonderoga Falls for a century, he's required to host a Hunt once a year. Then, hungry, shapeshifting faeries will descend upon the villagers and harvest their dreams. The Hunt...There are rules about harvesting humans; the poor creatures are so delicate. If you take too much, they'll die. Without dreams, they perish. And perish they do—now and then—despite Ash's efforts to keep them safe. Then he realizes Maddie is the prey his unwanted guests are after. But, try as he might, this time he's not strong enough to protect her. The entire village is in danger. Soon the Hunt will begin. And no one will be safe.. . . . .Note: This book was originally published in 2011 with the title, Feast: Harvest Of Dreams. This version has been rewritten.
