Synopsis

Rory is an omega prince, heir to the throne of the magical kingdom of Igella. His country's laws dictate that omegas must have a Regent to rule in their stead—and that the Regent must be an Alpha. Rory's wicked stepmother, Queen Berenda, needs to find an unscrupulous Alpha, because she has nefarious plans for her stepson.

But there are flies in the ointment—Rory isn't fully awakened, and the king's health is growing worse daily. When gorgeous Alpha, Lord Lexington, arrives with his pack, flashing plenty of gold, Berinda is overjoyed and quickly arranges a marriage, and that's when the trouble begins. In reality, "Lord" Lexington is a prince in his own country of Morovia, Igella's most bitter enemy.

Rory and Lex get married, and head back to Morovia, so that Lex can discover the truth about Rory's family, and his real mother, the "warlock" Vesper. Using his powers, Lex has to try to keep Rory alive long enough to reach Morovia. Along the way, they develop a burning attraction to each other, but dark forces are moving against them. It will take both of them, along with a little help from magical forces to come out of this alive and find their happily ever after.

Contains mature themes.

I knew this was a Snow White retelling. Not the Disney version or the Brothers Grimm. A lot of the hallmarks. Though! Prince Rory was only shown love from his mother, Queen Vesper, until the tenth day after his birth. Complications they said! Childbirth is hard in those time nobles and royalty lived......more

2.5/5 i actually had a pleasant time reading the book until 50% in. the women were treated awfully, with the 3 major women in the book being described as stupid and bitchy. would it have been so hard to make one of lex's cousins a woman? switch out king harrison for queen harrison? even the fucking in......more

Goodreads review by Luz on February 14, 2024

The synopsis promises something that was lost in the execution of the story. One good thing I can mention about the plot is that for some reason it kept me curious enough not to give up reading While at the beginning of the book they give all the details of everything that happens, at the end everyth......more

Goodreads review by Ericka on March 27, 2023

What an amazing fantasy read! This is one that I found I couldn't put down and was quite upset when it was over because I want more from this world!! There is no need to give spoilers, just read the blurb, buy or download the book ... and sit back and enjoy the story. Fantasy MM (Mpreg) at its best.......more
