Week 38 Reviews: A Dance With a Fae Prince, A Dance With the Fae Prince Bonus Scene

From Goodreads:

She knew her hand in marriage would be sold. She had no idea a fae prince was the buyer.

Katria swore she'd never fall in love. She's seen what "love" means through the cruelty of her family. So when she's married off to the mysterious Lord Fenwood for a handsome price, all Katria wants is a better life than the one she's leaving. Feelings are off the table.

But her new husband makes not falling in love difficult.

As their attraction begins to grow, so too do the oddities within her new life: strange rules, screams in the night, and attacks by fae that Katria never thought were real. When she witnesses a ritual not meant for human eyes, Katria finds herself spirited away to the land of Midscape.

Surviving the fae wilds as a human is hard enough. Katria must survive as a human who accidently pilfered the magic of ancient kings - magic a bloodthirsty king is ready to kill her for in order to keep his stolen throne - and her new husband is the rightful heir in hiding.

The power to save the fae is in her hands. But who will save her from a love she vowed never to feel?

A Dance with the Fae Prince is a complete, stand-alone novel, inspired by the tales of Psyche and Eros, as well as Cinderella, with a "happily ever after" ending. It's perfect for fantasy romance fans looking for just the right amount of steam and their next slow-burn and swoon-worthy couple.

From Goodreads:

Elise Kova's newsletter exclusive bonus scene taking place a few months after A Dance With The Fae Prince.

My Review:
Yeah, loved reading this book! It was another great stand alone romance in this world, and I loved that we're slowly seeing more and more of it, and given that the next book is about vampires (as well as the set up for that book in the bonus scene) has me excited to see where we're going to go from here! And it was so great to have this book about the Fae, because in the first book, the Elves hated the Fae, and it was great to see things from a Fae perspective (and the Elves of course, don't come out looking shiny!)

Massive spoilers ahead just now but I mean, it was pretty obvious that Katria was the rightful heir. The scars on her back, the fact that it was her mom's book, that she was fine with the food, all these elements meant that she was half fae. And what kind of story wouldn't have this hidden half fae if she wasn't important to the plot, that being the rightful heir? It just made sense, and I couldn't want to see them find this out, as well as how they were going to react! And oh, I loved how they did, it was perfect and heartwarming! 

It's funny, but so far both of these books have started with them linked in marriage for reasons that are other then they are in love. But that both end with love, that just makes me happy! They had such issues to face, between the fact that she's human, she will die in the Midscape is she stays without the power. Well, that's what they believe, but it's still an obstacle! 

And just like the first book, the bonus scene gives us more time with these characters (and we get to see Luelle and Eldas) it also introduces the 3rd book, which is going to be about the vampires! And I'm hoping that we do find out about Katria's dad! 

This was a fantastic read, and I can't wait to read more!
