A Court Bright and Broken by Amy Patrick
4.0
Raewyn, a human girl, meets Stellon, the fae Crown Prince at the markets when trying to sell her mother's locket to feed her little sisters and father. Stellon invites her to the upcoming ball, and she enlists the help of an earth witch to attend. At the ball, things go wrong and Stellon must hide and protect Raewyn from his family.
This was a quick easy fantasy read, with simple world building and a well paced plot. The fae magic in this story was unique but easy to follow.
Raewyn's character only thought of saving her family, to her own detriment, and she was roped in to a twisted plot by the earth witch in order to feed them and support her father's health treatments. Stellon was the classic spoiled prince who doesn't really know what happens in his kingdom and is shocked to hear about Raewyn's life.
There is a Cinderella aspect in Raewyn's attendance of the ball and the way the earth wife dresses her and sends her off.
This book was listed as enemies to lovers - I didn't really feel like that fit the story. Raewyn and Stellon are from different worlds and might fit the star crossed lovers trope, but they weren't really enemies at any point.
Overall, I enjoyed the story and will look for the next one when it is released.
