Book Synopsis

A NATIONAL BESTSELLER!

"WITTY, ROMANTIC, AND ADDICTIVELY FUN!" --Sarah Beth Durst, New York Times bestselling author of The Spellshop

Ten years ago, they saved the realm--and it ruined their lives. Now, four former heroes must reunite, and hopefully live to tell the tale, in this charming romantasy about friendship and redemption, perfect for readers of Legends & Lattes and lovers of Shrek.

Everyone in Mythria knows the story of how best friends Beatrice and Elowen, handsome ex-bandit Clare, and valiant leader Galwell the Great defended the realm from darkness. It's a tale beloved by all--except them. They haven't spoken in a decade, devastated by what their quest cost them.

But when they all receive an invitation to the queen of Mythria's wedding, it's a summons they can't refuse . . . and a reunion for the ages--with Clare secretly not over his long-ago fling with Beatrice, Beatrice fighting the guilt she feels over how everything ended, Elowen unprepared for the return of her ex-love (the cunning Vandra), and all of them lost without Galwell. And if reuniting with former friends and lovers wasn't perilous enough, dark forces from their past have also returned.

Dusting off old weapons and old instincts, Beatrice, Clare, and Elowen will face undead nemeses, crystal caves, enchanted swords, coffee shops, games of magical Truth or Dare, and, hardest of all, their past rife with wounds never healed and romances never forgotten.

This time around, will their story end in happily ever after?

Asher!" -- India Holton, USA Today bestselling author of The Wisteria Society of Lady Scoundrels

"A deliciously fresh new voice in cozy fantasy, Asher's riotous tale of wounded love and lost valor ensorcelled me from page one.

MacLean, author of The Phoenix Keeper
