"Laurel staarde met grote ogen naar de bleke dingen achter haar rug. Ze waren angstaanjagend mooi – te mooi voor woorden. Ze draaide zich weer naar de spiegel en slikte. Ze leken bijna op… vleugels.

Wanneer ze met zijn allen naar de grote stad verhuizen zodat Laurel naar de middelbare school kan, moet ze heel erg wennen.

Ze durft haar ouders niet in vertrouwen te nemen en gaat samen met David op zoek naar haar afkomst.
Als Laurel erachter komt dat ze ooit te vondeling is gelegd, is het raadsel compleet. Wie is ze, en nog veel belangrijker: wát is ze precies?"

‘WILD’ IS THE UK TITLE TO THE US edition ‘ILLUSIONS’.
On the first day of Laurel’s senior year there are two new arrivals. Tamani — the electrifying faerie with whom she shares an undeniable connection — appears, posing as a foreign exchange student. And even more disturbing is another foreign exchange student named Yuki whom Laurel quickly realises is a faerie, though the new girl doesn’t seem to have any idea who or what she really is.
Laurel is determined to figure out how Yuki fits into the picture, and what connection she may have to the ever-increasing threats to her family and Avalon. Meanwhile, Laurel struggles to maintain a balance between her human boyfriend David and Tamani, with whom she shares a passionate past. But balancing two worlds is becoming more and more complicated. When the threat to Avalon grows ever stronger, Laurel’s illusion of control of the situation shatters and she must confront a danger even greater than the trolls."
"A magical romance blossoms in the follow-up to WINGS, the bestselling novel described by Stephenie Meyer as 'a remarkable debut'.
'I can't just storm in and proclaim my intentions. I can't 'steal' you away. I just have to wait, and hope that someday you'll ask,' Tamani said.
'And if I don't?' Laurel asked, her voice barely above a whisper.
'Then I guess I'll be waiting forever.'
It's been almost a year since Laurel discovered that she is a faerie, placed with human parents as an infant to help protect the gateway to the faerie realm of Avalon. Although she's come to accept her true identity, Laurel refuses to turn her back on her human life-and especially her boyfriend, David-to return to the faerie world.
But when she is summoned to Avalon to relearn her long-forgotten faerie magic, Laurel must depend on the charismatic faerie sentry Tamani. Her feelings for him are undeniable, and she is forced to make a choice-a choice that could break her heart.
When a deadly enemy resurfaces and puts both Laurel's life and Avalon in danger, Laurel must draw on all her human strength as well as her faerie skills to save both of her worlds and all of those she holds dear."
