Gray Court Series by Dana Marie Bell

I just cannot rid myself of my habit to read novels. My weakness-chocolate and romance novels.

Gray Court Series by Dana Marie Bell is a paranormal series, like many of her other books and romance.

The series is called Gray Court because the love plot is between the characters who are either a part of the Gray court or become so in the story. The series shows three courts- the White, ruled by Queen Gloriana, the Black court, ruled by Queen Titannia, and the Gray court, ruled by High King Oberon, the strongest of all 


DARE TO BELIEVE
The first book, Dare To Believe is the story of a half-Sidhe half-Lepreachun Leo Dunne  and a human Ruby HallowayLeo is the CEO of the company where Ruby works. When Leo realizes that Ruby is his One, he plans with Ruby's best friend to get together with her. When there is a family emergency and Leo has to return to his family, Ruby accompanies him and together they face his problems with the Malmayne's.
It is a funny book with a witty woman and a half-sidhe with a colorful magic.

I personally like the characters of Ruby and the Hob, whose story becomes the fourth book of the series.

There is, of course, a story between Oberon and Titannia. Twists are something you just have to have.
you can read below, or just read the books....

NOBLE BLOOD

The second book, Noble Blood, is the story of Moira Dunne,half-Sidhe half-Lepreachun Jaden Blackthorne and Duncan Malmayne. All the characters are introduced in the first book. This story is about how the Moira and Duncan make Jaden accept that they are his true-mates. Then they face trouble from the Malmayne clan and accept the Gray court.



How can the Hob be left out? He obviously visits them considering Jaden is one of his beloved Blades.

Alas!! We won't get to his story till the fourth book!

Aristic Vision

The third book of the series, Artistic vision, is the third book of series, the story of  Shane Dunne, a pure hybrid and Akane Russo, a dragon.... Sparks will fly, literally ;)



Shane is a sculptor, thus the name of the book. Akane is the daughter of the seer and Shane is a seer. I am not gonna go in details, because they are mostly revealed in the first two books. Shane is quite a piece of work. When I read that he spoiled her brand new Porche Boxter, you cannot imagine how angry I was at him. I wanted to smack him upside-down. Anyhow, you'll read it and come to know.

THE HOB

Ahh!! The most awaited book if you have read the first three books. This is the story of Robin Goodfellow, a breed of his own and Micheala Exton, a human(though there is a twist I am not telling you about)...



When the Black Queen kidnaps one of the White Queen's nephews, Robin Goodfellow is sent to ensure that the young prince safely returns to the bosom of his family. True to his role as Oberon’s Hobgoblin, he is ready for anything…except meeting his truebond, the very delicious, very human Michaela Exton.

Michaela has dreamed about a flame-haired rogue named Robin Goodfellow since she was a little girl, but everyone knows Puck doesn’t really exist. In real life, it’s a dark-eyed man named Ringo who makes her heart beat faster.
FYI, if Robin loses it, there will be more destruction than a hundreds of meteors falling on earth..... ;)
See them falling in love....

SIREN'S SONG

Who wants the name of the woman to bring the mighty Oberon on his knees? This is the story of the High King of the Gray-Court Oberon(I am not revealing his last name or his type, it took me five books to know that) and a siren, Cassie....


Oberon is well and truly lost, with no memory of who he is, where he came from, or where he’s going.
Cassie knows the truth—he is the High King, her truebond, the one man born to be hers and hers alone. Restoring his memory and keeping him out of the Black Court’s clutches is her mission, though success means losing him. Yet to give the world back its High King, she will make that sacrifice.
As soon as Oberon’s memory comes crashing back through his mind’s closed door, he makes one vow. Though beset by enemies, chased and attacked, he will return to his rightful place with his Queen by his side.
Except when he makes good on his vow, all hell breaks loose
NEVER MORE

The final book of the series, though I hope she writes a following series for all the characters left, at least some of them like Liam, is the story of Raven Goodfellow, half-Robin (his father) half- Raven (the bird) and Amanda, Ruby's friend(from first book) and a human(the one who helped Leo and Ruby get together. Its a nice story but incomplete. Titannia sends Raven's half brother Sayyid to kill him, which Raven and gang fight tooth and nail and defeat them temporarily.




This series is incomplete. There are a lot of characters whose stories are expected, like Mellissa and Liam and Martin's and Matt's. I guess we'll have to wait for them.
