"Ascend" by Amanda Hocking

So Wendy has now finally told Loki that she wants to be with him and only him. His reaction was very different from what she is used to, usually when she would tell Finn that she wanted to be with him forever, his commitment issues would always come to light and he would run the second he possibly could after stealing a kiss or two. Though with Loki it was different, he smiled and at the same time seemed so happy and thankful he went over to Wendy overjoyed and gave her a huge hug. Wendy's mind was completely overwhelmed by this feeling of requited love and feeling of commitment, that he was never going to leave her. I think that because Wendy has only loved Finn apart from Loki that she never knew what it felt like to be loved back in a full and equal way. Finn loved her but he didn't love her enough to stay with her when she really needed someone to be there for her. But then again maybe he loved her almost too much to let his low rank in society ruin her position and reputation as Queen. I believe that Loki is a great match for Wendy as he will always love her as much as she loves him. Wendy has been through enough, she was literally stabbed by her fake mother at age 6, she found out that she was basically lied to her whole entire life at 16 and then became the Queen of a whole entire Kingdom at 18. She needs someone who can stick around for the long run and help her through it all. One of the main themes in this book is unrequited love or unequal love. I believe that real love is only real when it comes from both sides, you can't love a person to the fullest of your abilities if they don't love you back. Unrequited love is the worst kind of love, you fall in love alone and you constantly feel unloved. I am happy that Wendy has finally made the right choice and I can't wait to find out more about the story.
