R.I.P. Viola Winkle (Fantasy & Fairy Tales) - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

The trees are watching...

Viola Winkle is addicted to romance novels. So much so, she rarely gives real men the time of day. Why should she, when characters such as Gatsby and Darcy are only a few pages away, waiting to sweep her off her feet? So when she receives an invitation to the premiere annual event in romance publishing, she's over the moon to attend. That is, until a freak storm, a troublesome pup, and a mysterious family of tree people turn her fancy evening out into the last night she'll spend in 1954.

In 2024, Ethan Mills is the award-winning author whose gothic romance trilogy has taken the world by storm. His life and career are right where he wants them to be – until they're not. The sudden death of his brother and sister-in-law leaves him devastated and ill-equipped to care for the daughter they've left behind. His sorrow drives him to the woods, where a dark curse awaits.

Can a young librarian from the fifties break the curse before it turns him into a beast? Or will he be doomed to destroy them all?

"RIP VIOLA WINKLE is a lovely, timeless fantasy read that makes you want to grab your library card, get a big stack of books, and curl up in a favorite chair to read." - Goodreads Reviewer

"An unexpected mash-up of two classic tales, RIP VIOLA WINKLE juxtaposes the lost-to-time, fish-out-of-water protagonist, but gender swaps our sleeps-for-decades man for a young, feisty librarian, Viola, who finds herself in this predicament in order to break a beastly curse." - Goodreads Reviewer
