Publisher's summary

All seventeen-year-old Quill wants is a break from the family business. Flowers, plants, the generations-old garden. What he wouldn’t give for a taste of the outside world. Normalcy. But his mom won’t let him out of the house, telling him he’s just not ready …

All because he’s a dryad. Well, not just any dryad, but a male dryad—the first ever. And unlike everyone else in his family, he hasn’t a lick of magic. Just a shock of green hair, matching green eyes, and a growing frustration that there’s an entire world out there waiting to be discovered. Until the night when the outside world—specifically his new neighbor—discovers him.

Liam Watson lives in a culture filled with electronics, mobile devices, and social media—where there is no magic or even the belief in it. And as much as Quill finds Liam irritating (he’s so cute it’s annoying), he can’t help himself.

Now Quill’s getting a taste of the outside world and of Liam … and he wants more.

But all is not well in this magical, urban garden, and someone—or something—is changing the very essence of it.

And wherever Quill goes, the danger grows …

Loved it!

I'm a very picky listener and I'm usually annoyed with a lot of things, but I absolutely loved this audiobook! There was not a minute I wanted to put it down, I was completely hooked and needed to know what was going to happen next at all times. I found it to be a perfect mix of fantasy and romance as well.

I do agree with the review saying it was a little frustrating to listen to the characters not tell each other important information and proceed to ignore a bunch of signs, however I didn't find it to be that big of a deal, the story wouldn't evolve without it and I felt like it relatively even made sense, with the main character being a teenage boy experiencing a connection to another person for the first time in his life.

Overall, I really enjoyed listening to this audiobook and the performance by Michael Crouch made it even better!

good story with a happy but kind of disappointing ending

Really enjoyed the characters and direction of the story in this, didn't love how everything is completely fine in the end though, there should have been real, permanent consequences for the decisions made

An 8-hour and 40-minute fairy tale

The plot was excruciatingly slow in developing. In order to keep the big mystery in play, the characters kept having to ignore all the signs popping up around them. "Huh, that's weird," they'd tell each other. "We better not tell the one person who can fix it. Let's try to figure it out ourselves." Then they'd go off and do something else entirely. In the end, love conquers all and everybody lives happily ever after.
