A beastly fae king with a deadly curse.
A devious bargain to break it…
All Gemma Bellefleur wants is to leave her past behind and forget the day scandal broke her heart. But when she’s captured by a trickster fae king who threatens to hold her for ransom, she’ll find herself at the top of the gossip column yet again.
Unless…
Plagued by a curse that will soon claim his life, the human-hating King Elliot will do anything to save himself. And if Gemma can use that to her advantage, she might be able to bargain her way to freedom. All she has to do is help him break his curse.
There’s just one hitch—to do so, they’ll have to trick someone into falling in love with the beastly, brooding Elliot.
With a devious alliance made, their scheme begins, bringing Gemma and Elliot into very close quarters. Soon, an unexpected desire stirs where once there was only hate. But Gemma must fight it. For when the curse is broken, Elliot will return to his true form—a wolf—and be lost to her for good.
Can Gemma sacrifice her budding feelings to save the king’s life? Or will love force her to give up something even greater...her heart?
I found the beginning of the book to be a bit slow and it didn't capture my interest right away. However, once the story picked up, I really enjoyed it. One thing I liked was that Gemma, the main character, was strong-willed and not portrayed as a damsel in distress. She was actually the one who came up with the plan to bargain with Elliot, the fae king.
Speaking of Elliot, I liked his gruff demeanor and how he quickly fell in love with Gemma. Their romance was really cute to follow.
The writing style felt a bit childish at times and could have used more refinement in certain areas. However, overall, I found the story to be enjoyable and a unique retelling of Beauty and the Beast.
I also want to mention that I really liked the fictional world created by Tessonja Odette, called Faerwyvae. It was fun to revisit that world in this story.
In conclusion, while the beginning was a bit slow, I ultimately found Curse of the Wolf King to be an enjoyable read with a strong and likable main character, a sweet romance, and an interesting fictional world.
