He’s the fae prince… and the prize for the Bride Games.
Too bad I’m not interested.

Does that stop him from coming into my life and forcing me to compete? No.
Does that stop me from keeping up with my personal agenda? Also no.

The competition is fierce and the contestants are even worse.
As we enter each round of elimination, I wait for my dismissal.
Returning home is my end goal.
Not swooning over some fae.

Even if he’s charming.
And he makes me feel alive.
Which I won’t be for much longer if I stay in the Games.
The closer I get to the prince, the more my life is in danger.

Or is it my heart that’s truly in jeopardy?

My Review

Sabine lives alone in the forest, an outcast because she is a faeling, a human-fae hybrid. She has only one friend, and while he is compassionate and loyal, he is also just a human living among a society that doesn’t fully accept her.

Darian is a High Prince of the Fae Court. At his father’s command, he must meet every eligible fae female participating in the Bride Games, a competition where the winner earns the right to become his bride.

Sabine is smart, resourceful, and cunning, even if she isn’t as educated in fae customs and politics. I appreciated her honesty and sass from the beginning. I also had a feeling there might be a fated mates bond at play.

The story was engaging, though I did notice a few spelling and editing issues throughout. Sabine and Darian have an enemies-to-lovers dynamic, but there is also a fair amount of insta-lust, which likely stems from the fated mates connection, even before it is fully explained.

Once the fated mates storyline finally develops, the romance deepens beyond simple attraction. I enjoyed the rags-to-riches elements, the fae world, and the fast-paced fantasy adventure. It was an enjoyable and quick read. As the story progresses, it becomes more twisted, and the romance grows steamier as well.

While I enjoyed the journey overall, the ending didn’t work quite as well for me. It was incredibly sweet, and I was happy to see the characters get their happily ever after. However, it felt like the characters lost some of the traits and personalities that had made them compelling throughout the rest of the story. I wanted them to find their happy ending without feeling as though they had completely broken character to get there.
