The Masked Fae

Royal Fae of Rose Briar Woods, Book 1

By: Shari L. Tapscott

Narrated by: Shakira Shute, Steve West

Never make a bargain with one of the Fae.

It’s a rule everyone knows…and yet it’s one Alice’s family seems to ignore. After her brother loses their entire family fortune in a wager he cannot afford, Alice ventures into the Rose Briar Woods to make a deal with the formidable Fae marquis who now owns her family’s estate—a portrait in exchange for her brother’s freedom.

But instead of Lord Ambrose, the young artist meets a mysterious masked man who saves her when her carriage is attacked by goblins. Even though he warns her to leave the woods, Alice finds herself working in the marquis’s manor.

Right away, Alice realizes Lord Ambrose is not what she expects. He’s kind when the Fae are supposed to be cold, and he’s generous even though he wants to be rid of her. And more, he’s hiding a painful past—one that seems to have something to do with Alice herself.

Soon, Alice is torn between the handsome marquis and the dashing masked bandit who continues to visit her in the evenings, but her heart tells her something is amiss.

Because it seems very likely the two men Alice is taken with just might be the same man….

The Masked Fae is a breathtaking fantasy romance with a touch of angst and plenty of chemistry. Each book in the series is a complete story, and although it’s best to listen to them in order, there are no cliff-hangers.

Sweet and cute

Performance was on point. The story was sweet. Story just became a favorite. Can’t wait for the other two books.

Clean-ish??

So many other reviews said it was clean and -technically- yes that is correct. However, the way certain situations and *feelings* were described/handled um, I'd be embarrassed to listen to in front of others (in addition to a rather sultry narration). Maybe it's worse because it's on Audio?? Regardless, this is more in the field of Adult Clean; too suggestive for the younger crowd but not explicit enough to be considered otherwise. Recommend 18+ only.
