Oh my goodness.
I’m not a romance reader.
I love all things dark, horror, and thought provoking. I love when a book forces me to sit with its theme or overall message.
But, I found myself stuck in a rut reading the same sorts of things over and over again.
I work at an indie bookstore. Some of my coworkers love romance, especially contemporary romance. But I always pushed it aside. Why on earth was I doing that.
I wanted something to get me out of my reading slump. And this series popped out to me. A love story centered around a Renaissance Faire? SIGN. ME. UP.
I’m a gung-ho Ren Faire participant. I love them. I want to live at one. So, most definitely I was interested in this shiny new tale.
The story was ultimately so much fun. I laughed. I felt the pain of the main character. And most of all, I felt like I was getting dressed for the faire.
DeLuca created such a fun escapism and I’m delighted I was able to find it.
I’ve already purchased the second book. And I’m keeping my eye on three and four. Keep ‘em coming, DeLuca. You’ve got a permanent reader right here.
