It’s a rule everyone knows…and yet it’s one Alice’s family seems to ignore. After her brother loses their entire family fortune in a wager he cannot afford, Alice ventures into the Rose Briar Woods to make a deal with the formidable Fae marquis who now owns her family’s estate—a portrait in exchange for her brother’s freedom.
But instead of Lord Ambrose, the young artist meets a mysterious masked man who saves her when her carriage is attacked by goblins. Even though he warns her to leave the woods, Alice finds herself working in the marquis’s manor.
Right away, Alice realizes Lord Ambrose is not what she expects. He’s kind when the Fae are supposed to be cold, and he’s generous even though he wants to be rid of her. And more, he’s hiding a painful past—one that seems to have something to do with Alice herself.
Soon, Alice is torn between the handsome marquis and the dashing masked bandit who continues to visit her in the evenings, but her heart tells her something is amiss.
Because it seems very likely the two men Alice is taken with just might be the same man…
The Masked Fae is a breathtaking fantasy romance with a touch of angst and plenty of chemistry. Each book in the series is a complete story, and although it’s best to read them in order, there are no cliffhangers.
I'm always, always in for a new book by author Shari Tapscott. Always. I know exactly what I'm going to get and it's what I love, so yeah, always in.
What I super love about this particular book is that it has NO CLIFFHANGERS!! YAY!! I loved going into the story knowing that I would have resolution even though this is a continuing series. Yes, there will be other books, but each can stand alone. My heart loves this.
This story is my type of fantasy. Give me some light fantasy elements and creatures, but with plenty of human emotion and romance. That's how I like it and this author is really good at it. I was invested in this story from the very beginning and that interest held tight the whole way through. It was so good! We get a sneak peek at the next book and I'm excited about it! Yay for a new series from this author!
Content: mild peril, mild violence, kissing. Mention of death, gambling and substance abuse.
