My Rating: 5 out of 5 stars
The second installment of Janette Rallison’s “The Fair Godmother” series only gets better. Rallison did a remarkable job of developing her characters and creating an intriguing plot that interwove Robin Hood and Rumpelstiltskin’s tales perfectly. The dialogue was witty and amusing. The plot was not too predictable but similar enough that it did not lose what made the first book great. I could not put this book down. The book was well-paced and each chapter concluded on a suspenseful note that you breezed right through to the final chapter without even realizing it.
You cannot help but develop affection for all the characters, especially Tansy. Her rebellion was expected but nothing so extreme that you would not be sympathetic towards her. Tansy showed a lot of growth as she muddled through the mess her wishes made. Hudson was a decent hero. I found him arrogant at the start and took half the book before he started to become somewhat likeable. It was only near the end that I kind of started to like him. I think the build up of romance took a bit too long. However, I did like the way the author intertwined Hudson and Tansy near the end was really sweet. I won’t ruin it but it was a cute symbolism of their future together. There were a lot of side characters but they didn’t overwhelm the story. No characters were wasted and all helped moved the plot along.
If you have read and liked/loved the first book, then you will definitely love this. I would also suggest this to anyone who likes their stories blended together with romance, action, humor and fairy tales. Overall, another winner from Janette Rallison.
