The Immortal Circus by AR Kahler
Publication date: December 4, 2012 by 47North
Murdered contortionists aren’t exactly what Vivienne signed up for when she ran away to join the circus. But like most things under the big top, nothing is what it seems. With a past she can’t quite remember, Vivienne finds that running away forever might not be as appealing as it once sounded—especially not when she realizes the devilishly attractive ringleader Mab is the Faerie Queen of legend…and that she and the rest of the troupe are locked in an age-old rivalry between the otherworldly Courts.
Aided by her friends Kingston—a feisty stage magician whose magic is quickly stealing her heart—and his smart-ass assistant Melody, Vivienne finds herself racing against the clock to discover the culprit behind a series of deaths that should be impossible. However, the answer she seeks might reveal more about her own bloody past—and future—than she bargains for.
The show’s just beginning.

The Bookish Brunette thought:
The Immortal Circus is told in ‘episodes’… This is the review for Episode 4.
Honestly… I’m not sure WHAT just happened in Episode 4.
Kingston is being threatened by a crazy Summer Fae, Vivienne steps in a goes all “RAWR! You won’t hurt him!!!” Then she’s passed out, with everyone giving her lame excuses as to WHY.
We do find out what her super secret power is… And why Mab wants to keep her in the dark. So that cat is out of the bag.
Things are heating up between Kingston and Viv, and Mel is getting better.
Although Viv totally irritated Mab’s little pet, Lillian. And from what I gather, she is one in which you do not screw with.
Episode 4 of The Immortal Circus was mysterious and enlightening at the same time, last episode in a couple of weeks!
Immortal Circus teaser:
“I do need you,” he finally says. His words break apart the shell around me. “But not like that.”
Then his hands are once more on my face and I open my eyes to see his lips inches from mine. His brown eyes are like coffee, like mocha, and in that one glance, I know that he’s telling the truth. I can see the hurt and desire, and I reach up and thread my fingers through his long black hair. He closes his eyes and smiles and then his lips are on mine. The world melts away.
His kiss is soft and hard and tastes like cinnamon and need. His hand slides behind my head and my hands are reaching around his neck and I’m kissing back as all the fury and fear turns into something else, some great passion I can’t control. I pull him close and he leans in and every inch of my body is pulsing with heat and electricity and desire. The beast inside of me is roaring for a different reason. I could fall into this fire and burn forever.
