I enjoyed reading this story even though I haven't read the first book in this series and while it did take me a little bit of time in the very beginning of the story to figure out who was who and get into it I think that was more because of the large number of characters involved in the story than that I hadn't read the first book. I enjoyed getting to know all the characters and seeing how the story unfolded as well as all the descriptions about the different characters and magic. I would have liked a little more at the end about how Evanelle adapts once she settles in and seen how her and Kieran's brothers got along. Overall I enjoyed reading this story and plan to look into more of this authors books.
In the kingdom of Amaranyllis there is a legend…
Of a prince who crossed the ocean chasing a prophecy.
Of a princess traded for a rose.
When destiny brings them together it will lead them through a fairy land and across the sea; along a road marked by strife and storms. For even though this destiny has bound their hearts together, it will also tear them apart.
Embroiled in the battle between fairy magic and sorcery they will risk the schemes and lies of court and the wrath of rogue enemies to find their way back to one another. But will it be enough to defeat the prophecy that haunts them both?
This loose fairy tale retelling evokes the romance of Beauty and the Beast and the perils of Eros and Psyche to reveal that legends are not always what they seem.
ENCHANTED STORMS is a young adult fantasy romance where prince charming is only the beginning of the heroine’s adventure. It is the second book in the PRINCESS KINGDOMS, a richly imagined world of fairytale retellings full of sweet romance, compelling characters and fairy magic.
Fans of Robin McKinley, Melanie Dickerson, and Juliet Marillier will enjoy ENCHANTED STORMS and the other books in the PRINCESS KINGDOMS series.
