Ice Lord's Bride

Bride of the Fae, Book 1

I must marry one of the fae, but the forbidden ice lord wants me.

To secure a human-fae truce, I'm one of five women traveling to their magical kingdom, where we'll be courted by fae aristocracy. We have one month to choose a husband from among them.

Only Elion, the arrogant, beastly ice lord, is forbidden. His torturous scars make the other women gasp. His icy words rip them to shreds. His touch is colder than frost. He lurks in the shadows, never coming out into the light.

One stolen moment with Elion, and I'm intrigued. A kiss, and I'll do anything to call this brutishly handsome lord mine.

Then one of the women is found dead. When you're next appears on my bedroom wall, written in blood, it's clear there's more going on here than solidifying the human-fae truce.

If I'm not careful, I won't become a bride of the fae. I'll wind up dead.

Ice Lord's Bride is book one in a fantasy romance duology. It heats to a high sizzle and comes with a guaranteed happily ever after.

Great narrators

The story was engaging and the narrators were awesome and added depth to the story.

Cliffhanger ending

It ends in a cliffhanger which I don’t like. Other than that it was okey

Cute

I loved the story. The romance was adorable. I didn't like that it was in 2 parts. I have to wait to read the second part. The narrators were good.

Struggle to finish ***Spoilers***

I'm on chapter 18... so not completed. A lottery system in which all the women of Earth between a certain age are entered. Women wanting to go as if this is paradise, romance and a money grab. I'm confused about the reaction when someone is attacked and dies the first day? Um. I'm gone. Not to mention the cliche of I'm ugly so I'm not worthy. The curse thing also seems vague.... cursed for no reason but you accept everyone treating you badly? The world building seems promising and I enjoy the voice acting so I my try and stick it out.... But the struggle is real.

Like a cold cup of tea

The world building and premise were intriguing but the author failed to give the leads solid chemistry (it’s said but not experienced by the reader very much)), there is a lot going on with the plot but it’s hard to feel a connection to the female lead and put yourself in her shoes. Performance was good. Just kind of boring with no HEA in this book. I can’t bear to slug through a second book to find out how it ends and I’m okay not knowing.
