About this listen

As a princess in the impoverished kingdom of Delantria, it’s Aldari’s job to look pretty, speak little, and marry a prince.

Studying mathematics and writing papers on economic theory in an effort to fix her people’s financial woes? Her father has forbidden it. With war on the horizon, they must focus on the immediate threat.

Reluctantly, Aldari agrees to marry a prince in a neighboring kingdom to secure an alliance her people desperately need. All is going to plan until the handsome elven mercenary captain hired to guard her marriage caravan turns into her kidnapper. His people are in trouble, and he believes she has the knowledge to help.

But with an invasion force approaching Delantria, Aldari’s own people need her. She must do everything in her power to escape the elves and make it to her wedding in time.

Never mind that her kidnapper is witty and clever and offers her a challenge that intrigues her mind even as his easy smile intrigues her heart….

Aldari can’t let herself develop feelings for him. To fall in love and walk away from her wedding would mean the end of her kingdom and everyone she cares about.

I loved the characters and the descriptive passages. The Princess is relatable and easily liked, and a bad ass body guard funny.

I enjoyed this journey story

The story kept me on the edge throughout. I wish we had more than 2 books set in this world, hopefully there will be more! 🤞🤞🤞

Loved it!

This was a nice change from what i have listened to so far. (Gore and horrors)
The characters are cute and it was easy to figure out what was going on.

Good enough

As the title says, fun and flirty. Then add a ton of backstory, fun on the run (from monsters), and enjoyable plots. Am very happy with the story. It might be a little bit lighter than the "usual" Buroker book. But definately has the Buroker magic. As before, the narrator is wonderful too.

Delightfully fun and flirty

This was an ok listen, but not half as enjoyable as this author’s Death Before Dragons series. It lacked the excitement and chemistry of that one. I’ll still get more in this series if they’re released, though.
