Summary
It's difficult to find a husband in Regency England when you're a young lady with only half a soul.
Ever since a faerie cursed her, Theodora Ettings has had no sense of fear, embarrassment or even happiness - a condition which makes her sadly prone to accidental scandal. Dora's only goal for the London Season this year is to stay quiet and avoid upsetting her cousin's chances at a husband. But when the Lord Sorcier of England learns of her condition, she finds herself drawn ever more deeply into the tumultuous concerns of magicians and faeries.
Bridgerton meets Howl's Moving Castle in this enchanting historical fantasy romance, where the only thing more meddlesome than faeries is a marriage-minded mother.
This audiobook includes a bonus short story.
Critic reviews
"A hugely enjoyable take on the Regency.... I wolfed this down with great pleasure." (KJ Charles)
"I've read these books more times than I can count. Atwater's stubborn, quietly radical characters defy the expectations of both society and fairy tales as they blaze new paths towards love and decency. Smart and subversive, these charming romances will ignite your heart - and your hope." (Shelley Parker-Chan, author of She Who Became the Sun)
"Whimsical, witty, and brimming over with charm.... Dora and the Lord Sorcier have a place amongst my favourite fantasy romance couples ever." (India Holton, author of The Wisteria Society of Lady Scoundrels)

Fantasy Bridgerton
A Farie version of Bridgerton what's not to love!
This packed a punch from the off. I was instantly intrigued with the idea of this story and the execution of it was great. Even from the prologue I was invested. I love Dora! Her wit and banter especially with Elias were top notch. This audio has a great narration and great story telling and I loved the fantasy twist on a Bridgerton type novel. I will most definitely be picking up the rest of the series.

An original and compelling story
I read this story last year so was excited about listening to the audiobook. I’m sure many people who’ve previously read an audiobook experience a slight jolt when a narrator sounds very different to the voice(s) of the character(s) that they originally envisioned but still loose themselves to the story. It’s a shame however when the voice is so different that it pulls you out of the story and this is what I found for the accent the narrator gave to the Lord Sorciere, Elias. It irritated to the point where I got annoyed whenever his dialogue was present. Such a shame as the story really is wonderful

Wonderful
I thoroughly enjoyed this book, I only stopped reading to take time to sleep and that was reluctantly. It pulled me in and kept hold of me only letting me free at the end.
it was nice to be able to listen to the short prequel at the end. I found Latchkey as a free gift after signing up for the authors newsletter.

Really enjoyable - apart from the accent
Such a great story, but why did the male lead have to sound like Stan from dinnerladies?

Sweet charming and funny
An original premise about finding love and acceptance. I found myself really rooting for the characters and hanging on every word.
