Once Upon a Winter's Eve by Tessa Dare
5.0

4.5 stars

The always infallible Tessa Dare has done it again.


I just loved this little novella. It managed to be engaging and heart-wrenching, while still being exciting and just all-around lovely. I really liked Violet and the fact that she seemed to be the one who kept saving Christian and was anything but a helpless wallflower. And I liked how Christian recognized her new strength and realized that he loved and admired her even more for it, but still wanted to be the one who protected her. I loved being able to witness their unconventional reunion (and learn about their unconventional courtship) and watch their love for each other reignite and blaze anew. I loved the ending and just wish we could have gotten more of their HEA. Another great novella from one of my favorite authors :)

My Lord Christian Pierce!
