Description

Afflicted by a centuries-old curse, a warlord slowly surrenders his humanity and descends toward madness. Ballard of Ketach Tor holds no hope of escaping his fate until his son returns home one day, accompanied by a woman of incomparable beauty. His family believes her arrival may herald Ballard's salvation.

...until they confront her elder sister.

Determined to rescue her sibling from ruin, Louvaen Duenda pursues her to a decrepit castle and discovers a household imprisoned in time. Dark magic, threatening sorcerers, and a malevolent climbing rose with a thirst for blood won't deter her, but a proud man disfigured by an undying hatred might. Louvaen must decide if loving him will ultimately save him or destroy him.

A tale of vengeance and devotion.

The writing was excellent. I didn’t get the love factor between any of the characters except maybe Magda and Ambrose. There were some odd things that pulled the story off a bit. Joan and clairmond, not sure about that situation. Gavin and cinnia were in love with the look of each other but no real emotion there and oddly how unbeautiful were there children. The moving of the bones. The flowers in monteblanc real or imagined. Idk something to ponder this story is old and really RADIANCE is the book you didn’t know u needed to read to go there now
Beautiful story as all of Grace Draven books.

What I enjoyed most was that the MC Louvaen was a more mature lead featuring in a retelling.

It took me a little while to get into this story, and who the romance would center on wasn’t immediately clear. However, I’m really happy I continued. It’s more touching than many of the traditional versions of this story.

Plus, the family layers go much deeper.

One remaining thing I’m not super clear on was how the curse was lifted. It was made to me a deeper thing in this story, and I didn’t feel that was clearly enough resolved.

Still…this is a story with “all the feels”

Interesting characters and story. Dialogue with playful humor made me smile. Badly edited.
A Beauty and the Beast retelling

An overall enjoyable read that was intelligently written. The only negatives were the few errors in punctuation and at times the overuse of characters threatening each other humorously became a bit thin. That said I enjoyed this story and would recommend it to others.
Smart, mysterious,sexy and funny

I really love this story and this author. The world building and character intros are amazing. The magic makes sense and doesn't overwhelm the story.
The love story builds slowly. The bad guys are fispicable, the hero is flawed but livable and the banter between characters made me chuckle and smile. I wouldn't say it had lol moments but a good chuckle is more than you can expect sometimes.
The plot is well written and the mystery of the curse keeps you guessing how, or even if, it will be solved. The ending didn't feel rushed to me. It all flowed very well. Loved it. I don't give five stars often.
