Julia Aspelin juliaaspelin — Stopping Time is a little novella that picks up a short time after the events of Ink Exchange, where Leslie severed her ties to Irial and the Dark Court, and to Niall as well, in order to save herself from who she might become as a member of the Dark Court, IF she even survived the Ink Exchange experiment. At the end of Ink, Irial bestowed the leadership of the Dark Court to Niall. Everyone is trying to adjust to these recent changes. Leslie is now trying to live her life without faerie influence, going back to school, having new MORTAL friends, although that is almost impossible to do when you're still under the Dark Court's protection, as she is receiving mysterious phone calls that have her spooked, and Irial and Niall even more protective of her. Even though Leslie is no longer a conduit to feed the Dark Court, she is still a potential pawn in the constant power struggles between the courts. Irial & Niall both still love Leslie, and she struggles constantly with her feelings towards them... knowing that if she tries to pursue a relationship with either of them, she'll lose herself in the Dark Court... she doesn't want to be that person who lives amongst the Dark Court. She had a glimpse of that version of herself when she was under the influence of the ink exchange... and that terrified her enough to find the strength to sever those ties (with Niall's help). Leslie constantly fights the addictive pull to she has to both Irial and Niall... that's one side of the story... all the while, it seems, Niall and Irial are trying to figure out exactly what their own relationship is to each other. There is a strange sort of intensity between them that is further explored as the story unfolds. I liked how this filled in the little gap left between Ink and Fragile Eternity... as well as what happened to Leslie's brother Ren. However, what I don't think got answered was what happened between Michael (Leslie's new mortal friend that likes her) and Irial??? Curious...
