Aislinn can see faeries but has spent her whole life pretending they are invisible. Her grandmother, who can also see them, has taught her the only way to avoid the capricious nature of the faeries is to never, never draw their attention. Which is all well and good until faeries, from the royal court, no less, start following Aislinn. She has been chosen by the Summer King, and from that instant, is no longer entirely mortal. She can become one of the immortal Summer Girls, free and easy. She may choose to take the test ordained by the Summer King and Winter Queen. If she passes, she becomes the Summer Queen, immortal and saves both faerie and human-kind from destruction. If she fails, she will be trapped helping the Summer King until he can find the next potential Queen. The only thing that's not an option is remaining human, with her Grams and her best friend turned maybe-boyfriend. Unless she can outsmart the faerie folk.
