    Evangeline Fox always believed in true love, until she finds out her soulmate is marrying someone else. Heartbroken, she makes a deal with the Prince of Hearts to stop the wedding. But things take a dangerous turn when the Prince asks for three kisses in return, each with its own consequences. As Evangeline navigates the treacherous game, she realizes the Prince has darker plans for her. Caught between love and danger, she must decide her fate in a story that's equal parts enchanting and dangerous.

"You might not like me, but I bet you’d like it if I kissed you."

    I loved this. Garber's writing feels like magic, and it's so easy to get lost in this book. The world, the characters, the story, everything is perfect.

    I am really interested in the storyline for this series, and that last chapter has me ready to toss aside my TBR for the next book. The characters in OUABH are also just so fun and interesting. I love getting to see a different side to some of the Fates.

    When I started this, I wasn't sure how much I was going to like Eva. By the end, I adored her. She is so forgiving, and it stresses me out, but it's so relatable at the same time. Eva is the epitome of a hopeless romantic, and I am rooting so hard for her. The slow-burn between Eva and Jacks is perfect. I wasn't sure if I would like them together, because I read the Caraval series first, but I LOVE them.

    I had so much fun reading this, and I cannot wait to get my hands on a physical copy for my personal little library. I'm so, so excited to read The Ballad of Never After very soon.
