What an awesome blogfest, hosted by Ciara Knight and Ninja Captain Alex!
Here are the rules: You can choose a book that you’ve read, something you saw on a blog or social media site, Goodreads, or a sales website. Anything that caught your eye because of a great cover, blurb or reviews, but DON’T tell the author that their book has been noticed. Instead, shout out on social media sites, and encourage others to do the same, until the author finds his/her book.
This was hard. There are so many great books out there, many of them written by my regular blog readers, that I chose one of my favorites from outside this blog circle.
And the winner is:
Bride of Fae (Tethers, Tales of Wyrd and Fae, Book Two),
by LK Rigel
Even though it says book two, it’s a standalone novel. There will be more to this series as well. Anyone who loves fantasy and faeries should read this. It’s one of my go-to reads when I want to lose myself within the pages.
Description:
A love more powerful than magic or time.
Beverly Bratton has a safe, mundane life. No drama. No magic. Since her parents died, she’s cared for her little sister Marion and worked at the Tragic Fall Inn. When a fairy’s charm sends Beverly a hundred years into the past-and into the path of a banished
fairy prince-nothing will ever be mundane or safe again.
The regent of the Dumnos fae is turning the court from light to dark, and there’s nothing the rightful king, Prince Dandelion, can do about it. The mystical coronation cup which he needs to become king has fallen into human hands. When he meets a human woman with access to the cup, everything changes. Beverly is fascinating as well as useful-but of course Dandelion doesn’t love her.
Love for a fairy is rare. Love with a human, impossible. But when Beverly and Dandelion are thrown together in a battle against both wyrd and fae, they learn that in Dumnos the impossible happens every day.

Hi, Julie. I love her writing! Everyone should check out ALL of her novels.
Interesting choice. I like the premise, but not sure if I can read about a hero named Dandelion. Maybe it will grow on me
.
This fest rocks!
LOL, Isis. The name will grow on you. It has a particular meaning.
Oh, that looks like a nice one. I haven’t read any faery stories.
It’s a wonderful book, Hart!
Love the names in this book. Thanks for sharing.
They are fun names, Susan.

Hi Tara. Isn’t that a great title?
I’m so happy you’ve seen Wish floating around!
Pretty cover!
Really glad you found your book, Laura. I knew as soon as I saw it on Ciara’s blog that was the one I wanted to choose.
Hi L. Diane. It’s a beautiful cover. Love the greens in it!
I was stunned that you chose my book! Made me jump up and down.
What a fabulous surprise! I’ve been stuck in a deposition all morning (day job) and couldn’t respond until now. Thank you SO much, Laura, for choosing Bride!
Those stinkin’ day jobs get in the way, don’t they? So glad you found it, Linda. I love this book!
Why weren’t we all born with a silver trust fund in our mouths? Or something like that.
Thanks again for the nice words about Bride of Fae. And about Prince Dandelion – I hope by the end of the book readers agree that “Dandelion” can join the lexicon of manly man hero names, ha.
I haven’t heard of this book, but then again that’s the purpose of the Blogfest. Exposure. Good luck to LK Rigel and Bride of Fae!
It’s a great opportunity for exposure, Stephen!
A beautiful book to notice. This is a fun bloghop.
It’s been a lot of fun, Mary.
I love green. What a beautiful way to show that color.
And the first one of the series is just as beautiful, Michael, but in blues.
She looks like the face that launched a 1000 ships. Beautiful cover. The series sounds fascinating.
It is a beautiful cover, Joylene, and the series is great!
Added to my TBR. Oh gosh, this blog fest is not good for making my TBR list shorter, but it’s oh so good for finding new gems!
Love this book’s cover.
Hi Trisha! So many good books out there! My TBR pile grew by leaps and bounds today.
I can see why it would pull you into the world. Sounds like a good one. Gee, I wonder why both my husband and my TBR pile are groaning? It’s only ONE more book. Really.
Hi Sia! Yes, one more book times DOZENS today! It’s a great book and worth sharing with the world.
The cover does match the story blurb and fairies.
Hi J.L. Which is great. Sometimes covers don’t represent the story very well.
I am completely entranced by the cover.
It has that effect on me too, Susan.
Hi Laura .. I liked your comment – lets go shopping for them all – easier than choosing from my TBR list.
This looks like a great choice – Bride of Fae … she looks a little anxiously into her future …
Cheers Hilary
Getting them all would be easier, Hilary!
Laura– Another great recommendation. I hope you’re doing well. I haven’t been to your site in a while. It’s good to see that you’re still going strong.
I’m still here, Mariah! Thanks for stopping by.
I’ve never been a big fantasy reader, but would grab this one for the striking cover alone.
Hi Elizabeth! Isn’t the cover just awesome?
Laura – by the way, Bride of Fae is on a BookBub promotion today and tomorrow. It’s 1/2 off at Amazon and B&N.
Awesome deal! Thanks for letting us know.
