Summary
A human elemental desperate to save her home. A dark fae guardian devoted to his lord. A deadly bridal competition that will test both their loyalty.
Rosalie is sold to the magistrate of Farrow's Gate to compete in a marriage competition. If she wins, her home is saved. If she loses, she'll be forced to work off her family's debt in an undisclosed location.
But the magistrate won't just marry any human. He wants a mate whose magic rivals his own, and Rosalie can't ever reveal just how powerful she is. In the world of Saol, magic is regulated, and if the Magi Council discover what she is, it won't just be her life at risk.
Her only chance of escape is with the magistrate's bodyguard, Baine: a dark, too-handsome fae, and one who has no interest in helping a human girl.
Until one night in the moonlit woods when everything changes, and suddenly Rosalie is torn between what she wants and what is right.
Losing the competition means death, winning means the death of others, and Rosalie is out of time. If she doesn't choose soon, someone will do it for her.
The Moonlit Woods is a stand-alone fantasy romance within the Shifting Fae world perfect for listeners looking for epic fantasy, a slow-burn romance, fast-paced action, and a happily ever after.

Great plot
Rosalie is in a difficult situation. Her parents are gone, her twin brother joined the war and has not been heard from since, and she has been left alone to look after the animals and family business. However, her land has been blighted by plague and she must look for funds and help to look after the only thing left of her family. In her plight to get help, Rosalie ends up in the clutches of a mysterious Magistrate who is seeking to wed a woman of powerful magic. She is collared, trapped and resorts to asking for help to escape from a Dark Fae, but his allegiance is to the Magistrate. The odds are against Rosalie, but she does everything in her power to escape.
This story has a great plot however, it was subjected to some very corny and awkward narrative. Some of the corniness is due to the narration. I wasn't a fan of the narrator's female voice, it would have been better if the author had dual male/female narrators. The repetitive, random descriptions of Rosalie's breasts was a bit odd and didn't add anything to the story. Good characters on the surface but they didn't have much depth to them.
Overall I enjoyed the story, thought it was creative, but felt a few things prevented it from being a great audiobook.
I was given this book for free of my own choosing and I voluntarily left this review.

FAE and dark shadows
A different telling of the Fae. Has mages and dark shadow world figures. A human elemental is tricked by a troll in competing for the lord of Farrows Gate bride to be. All the human Rosalie wants is to save her fire hawks. The winner in the contest must have the greatest power which she has but hides it because she thinks it will mean her death. The story is about her trials and wishes, and meeting the Lord’s Main guardian, who she falls for. There was no sex scenes. All in all it has a good storyline and good ending. Want to read the next in the series.

This book has action, magic, mystery and romance. Rosalie finds herself in a marriage competition she did not mean to enter and doesn't want to win.
This is a clean romance .
