The Margrave of Thornbeck must marry and so he asks ladies from other lands to join him for a house party for two weeks so he can choose his bride. Avelina is asked to pretend to be one of the Ladies and embarks on a journey to a new land. She must ensure that she is not picked or she will loose all that she was promised.
I caught a glimpse of Margrave in The Huntress of Thornbeck Forest and was excited to see his story put to page. I really liked Margrave's gruffness as it reminded me of Beauty and the Beast. He tries so hard not too like Avelina but finds he is drawn to her and wants to know her. Avelina is drawn to Margrave but fights it by throwing up walls hoping he will choose one of the other young ladies. The story pulled me in and it was fun to watch them find their hearts.
This story is entertaining and romantic. Definitely a good clean read. I was given a copy of this book by Thomas Nelson Publishers for a honest review.
