Regency meets fairy tale in this lighthearted romance series opener.
Lady Helena Lark is sent to London to marry a duke even though she’d rather stay home and be an apple farmer. She's tried to escape the marriage by feigning sickness and madness and even running away, but nothing has worked. The wedding looms, and she has one last plan: Get the duke to fall in love with someone else and jilt her. Mercenary Declan Shaw, known as “Huntsman,” is in prison for a crime he didn’t commit when he’s offered a chance out. The duke’s uncle hires him to watch over Helena until she makes it down the aisle. Helena wants Declan to be her ally, though, and Declan finds the relentless woman irresistible. She soon reciprocates his feelings, making it all the more important for her plan to succeed. The lead characters propel the story. Helena is persistent, adventurous, and the perfect complement to thoughtful Declan. The way they work together and revel in each other’s company is so joyful. Though the story never takes itself too seriously, it tactfully touches on power dynamics based on class and gender. Inspired by “Snow White,” there are nods to the source material and fun twists on notable elements such as seven potential duchesses instead of dwarves. This entertaining romance leans into its fairy-tale roots with just the right amount of over-the-top whimsy.
Mirror mirror on the wall, it’s fun, charming, and sure to enthrall.
