Evangeline Fox makes a deal with the Prince of Hearts to stop the wedding of her first love, but all is not what it appears.
I am such a fan of this book! I absolutely LOVE Jacks (not sure what that says about me) and really enjoyed Evangeline as a leading lady. This continued to build upon the world-building from the CARAVAL trilogy but I enjoyed it more—I felt like a had a clearer handle on what was going on and how things worked. I also have theories about what’s coming next and I really hope I’m right.
Also, vampires? I’ll never complain about a book with vampires. Can’t wait to read book two!
CW: Violence/blood/death; mentions of death of parent
