Tristan and Issylte's relationship drives the narrative around which the story revolves. I thoroughly enjoyed the book and will recommend it to lovers of fantasy and romance.

Issylte is still on the run from her stepmother Queen Morag and allies, Frocin and Voldurk. She ran from Avalon to Bretagne with Sir Lancelot and Prince Tristan, who allegedly committed treason. Issylte also gained powerful allies through her gift of healing and the goodwill of fairies, druids, and beasts. Unfortunately, she can’t reclaim the throne of Ireland yet. The wicked wizard Voldurk remains her stepmother’s ally, and her mate, Tristan, must defeat him. However, Tristan needs the help of an orb hidden in one of the sacred waters of the Goddess. Voldurk is also looking for the item because it will make him invincible. It is survival of the fittest, and the dangers ahead are better imagined.

The Lady of the Mirrored Lake by Jennifer Ivy Walker is a captivating paranormal story. It features romance, royal politics, deception, magic, survival, betrayal, losses, and victories. I loved the world-building, the drama, and how Walker created fantasy settings from actual places like France, Ireland, and Britain. It was a pleasure to read this second installment because I enjoyed reading the first part and wanted more. The characters were unique and consistent, while the storyline was unpredictable. I also learned something from the affair between Ronan, Tristan, and Issylte. The one who loves you will protect you like Ronan. But the one who loves and believes in your ability will not only secure you; they will also teach you how to defend yourself in their absence, like Tristan. Also, the biggest blessing in life is the gift of good people by your side, which Issylte deserved. Jennifer Ivy Walker is a fantastic writer with a vivid imagination that captured me. I await the finale.

The Lady Of The Mirrored Lake is Jennifer Ivy Walker’s second book in The Wild Rose And Sea Raven series. Issylte travels with Tristan and Lancelot to his chateau, La Joyeuse Garde. Issylte assumes the identity of Lady Opale. Lancelot announces a celebration of his new guest in hopes of procuring allies to fight Voldurk and The Black Widow Queen. After the celebration, Issylte is brought to the Tribe of Dana. When she kills the dwarf, Malvon, she becomes the Priestess of the Mirrored Lake and is bonded to Tristan eternally. Meanwhile, Queen Morag has married Tristan’s uncle, King Marke. Voldruk has begun his search for the orb to make him invincible, using the dwarves to attack the Tribe of Dana. The fight between good and evil is just beginning.

Jennifer Ivy Walker’s book is full of magic and suspense. Tristan's love grows despite Issylte’s refusal as she mourns leaving Ronan. When Tristan starts training her, she accepts he is her destined mate. The childish nature of Princess Blanchine makes it easy to dislike her, especially when she tries to play subversive games to gain his attention. The amazing details describing the enchantments and various powers given to Issylte and Tristan convince me there isn’t anyone who could defeat them. Queen Morag's behavior disgusts me, especially as she takes multiple lovers. She doesn’t seem very powerful beyond her ability to seduce men. I was enchanted reading every page, as there was never a moment something significant could happen. The unpredictable events and revelations that unfold on every page made me envision the future battle. The end of this book offers perfect suspense for the sequel. I recommend The Lady Of The Mirrored Lake to anyone who enjoys a story full of magic, love, and revenge, filled with breathtaking scenery and impressive alliances.
