About this ebook

A young adult epic fantasy filled with fae, magic, and an enemies-to-lovers romance. Enter the enchanting realm of Faerie, where Elora, tricked by a fae prince, finds herself far from her young sisters, who rely on her for survival. Bound by a bargain, she must ensure Prince Brannick's rise to become the next High King—or find another way to free herself.

But sabotaging Brannick's chances may be faster than aiding his ascent. Elora, armed with her master sword skills, trains the prince by day, while secretly conspiring with a rival king whose plans could shatter Faerie itself. Lives are at stake, and Elora faces an unexpected choice: save her beloved sisters or protect half the realm.

Amidst court politics, betrayal, and fantastical magic, join Elora on a journey where she must navigate treacherous alliances and her own growing feelings for a prince who's digging his way into her heart.

3.5 Slow burn fantasy romance series. As with every other Fairy tale, the heros must go through many troubles before getting their happy moment, because "fairy is not nice, but it IS enchanting." Unfortunately, we are not there yet. This is book 1 of 4. This reader wants to read until book 4 in hopes of a happy ending for all but the evil queen and her twisted ally. Honest review of a googleplay aquired title including TTS feature for print impaired.

Such a good read! The development of character between everyone in the book shifts as the plot thickens. The ending of the book concludes this story while leaving it open to have more written onto it in a second book, which I love! If you love fantasy, action, and a lil romance, this book is for you.
