Desperate to save her sick mother, Roxana makes a deal with a talking polar bear - she'll live with him for a year and he will heal her mother. Unsure if she's crazy or dreaming, Roxana embarks on a journey that will change her life. She soon realises that there is more to her bear than she initially thought but everywhere she turns there are secrets.
I loved this unexpected take on an old story. Roxana is not your usual princess type and I loved her so much! There are a few very dark scenes in terms of violence that I did not enjoy very much but all in all, the story, the characters and the world were lovely and exciting and really well written.
