Official Blurb:
After losing both their parents, Bristol Keats and her sisters struggle to stay afloat in their small, quiet town of Bowskeep. When Bristol begins to receive letters from an “aunt” she’s never heard of who promises she can help, she reluctantly agrees to meet—and discovers that everything she thought she knew about her family is a lie. Even her father might still be alive, not killed but kidnapped by terrifying creatures to a whole other realm—the one he is from.
Desperate to save her father and find the truth, Bristol journeys to a land of gods and fae and monsters. Pulled into a dangerous world of magic and intrigue, she makes a deadly bargain with the fae king, Tyghan. But what she doesn’t know is that he’s the one who drove her parents to live a life on the run. And he is just as determined as she is to find her father—dead or alive.

I really liked, even loved, the Remnant Chronicles by Mary E. Pearson BUT THIS ONE HAS ME IN A CHOKEHOLD. Pearson combines fantasy, adult romance and mystery in this wonderful new adult romantasy The Courting of Bristol Keats.

The story was, from beginning to end, an adventure. I found myself unable to put the book down, eager to discover what would happen next. Pearson’s writing style and her accessibility to the characters were wonderfully executed.

Bristol is such a vibrant and strong character whose fate leads her to a dangerous and mysterious world. She meets Tyghan, a dark fae who is not always what he pretends to be and the rest is history. Pearson knows how to write on hell of a love story. The mix of hope, fear, love and suspense – the complexity of it all – makes it compelling to read. This take on an adult romantasy has everything I hoped for. And yes, it has spice but it was not overwhelming and the plot was plotting.

Pearson has once again managed to transport me into her enchanting world.It is a 5 star read for me, easily, as she has the ability to take me into her captivating stories that pull at my heartstrings. She filled the story with vivid imagery and emotions that made my experience wonderful. I cannot wait to see what happens next. What do I have to give her for the second book? A kidney?

Please, please, please – I need book 2 like I need air to breathe.
