A most beautifully twisted fantasy romance that was a pleasure to read. It pulled incredibly hard at my emotions, beating them bloody, then lovingly caressing them afterward. I think I may have book hangover for some time to come.
Hartley brings to life a tale of girl, resented by her family for the loss of her twin at birth, and left to suffer for her father’s poor business practices. Her only inheritance was isolation and loneliness. Suffering the loss of her best friend who is married off and sent far away, all lshe has left is an elderly neighbor as a companion.
Then suddenly she is swept away to a king’s castle where she meets kind and thoughtful people, rich in character with compelling background stories that open her to a new world of learning and self discovery. While there, an invitation arrives to visit the Fae Realm, where she has to hide her secret. The Fae have magic; can she pull this off? The Fae are so beautiful, but are they?
Somewhere along the way, her relationship with the king becomes something more; but what? He wants…….He wants……….
