Betraying Ever After by Kelly Martin, New Release!!! Spotlight & Review!

I LOVED THIS BOOK!!!!!





Blurb:

The first time Vaughan Wexley, Earl of Brighton, eyes the blonde beauty from atop the balcony, he is taken. Once he confronts her, he finds himself in love. The mysterious woman seems out of place in the regular sea of husband nabbing debutantes. She posses a gentle spirit, wide-eyed innocence, and-- his favorite quality-- cascading golden waves around her elegant shoulders. In need of a wife of noble blood, Vaughan believes his search has ended.

Emma Hartwell's only mission at the ball is to deliver a message to the host from her employer. In and out. That's the plan until she sees beautiful sights she's only dreamed of and hears wonderful music that touches her soul. Dressed up as a noble woman by the young housemaid Elizabeth and knowing she'll never get this opportunity again, Emma lingers longer than she intended. Her amazement with the grandeur allows the devilishly handsome Lord Brighton to steal her attention and sweep her off her feet. He is a charming man who is obviously taken with her. Emma's heart doesn't stand a chance. If only she could tell him the truth.

An earl in need of an honorable wife.

A servant in love with a man she can't have.

An evil plan that was set in motion years ago coming to fruition.

Can love conquer betrayal? Or will Emma's fairytale end at midnight?

A Cinderella re-telling.



My Review:

I have read a LOT of regencies and I have read a LOT of Cinderella re-tellings, but none, I repeat NONE can compare to Betraying Ever After.  Martin weaves an amazing tale of revenge, lies and betrayal that I could not help but become caught up in!  If you think that you know how the story will turn out, you will be wrong!  You cannot possibly guess each different turn the story will take and the emotions are portrayed so well that as I reader I was almost in tears at points!  I feel like whatever I write about Betraying Ever After will be inadequate to express how awesome this book was.  I could not put it down and I could not stop thinking about it!  Every detail is woven together seamlessly and the characters came to life right before my eyes!  Two days later, I am still thinking about Betraying Ever After!  I can see it all in my head like a movie.  If you want the best re-telling of Cinderella (in my opinion, and I have read a lot of fairy tale re-tellings), then pick this book up!  But be prepared to sit for a long while because you will not be able to put it down until you finish the last page!  Bravo to Martin who has transitioned to the fairy tale world beautifully!


Happy Reading!!!
