Irish Tale of the Faerie
The Summer King by O.R. Melling 
Shortly after graduation, Laurel and her twin Honor took a trip to visit relatives in the Irish countryside. Actually Laurel went in search of fun, adventure, and maybe boys; Honor went to hunt for evidence of faeries. The trip ends in tragedy as Honor meets an unexplained and untimely death. One year later, Laurel returns to Ireland to find answers and peace. To her surprise, faeries are real and she’s approached by a cluricaun to accept a quest. This quest will help heal the rifts in the faerie world, and more importantly to Laurel, may result in the release of Honor who is frozen in a rift. While Laurel doesn’t understand everything the cluricaun tells her, she doesn’t care. She only wants to hold on to the possibility that she may get her twin back.

Laurel has trouble believing in what she previously considered nonsense, but she must if she wants a chance to free Honor. Faeries are liars and tricksters and Laurel knows very little about their world—that was Honor’s hobby, not hers. Who can she trust? What dangers lie ahead? She will need to believe in herself, be a quick learner, and face seemingly insurmountable odds to survive, let alone, succeed. Melling’s love of her homeland, Ireland, and folklore enrich the story as she takes the reader on a wondrous journey of discovery, surprise, and growing up.
