The Wild Swans by K.M. Shea
3.0
I'm not really sure what to rate this book because there were parts I loved and other parts that felt lagged or confusing (usually my feelings towards it).
So first I must say I LOVE Rune! I need one of my own! I think he is so wonderful and Elise loved him a lot clearly.
I get that Falk was sweet-ish. He tried. I appreciate that. I loved that he stayed by Elise's side which shows his devotion but everytime he opened his mouth I just wanted to slap him. Every compliment sounded like an insult. I can't stand when men do this. Also he wasn't I guess manly enough for me. You should feel safe with a man. Rune made Elise feel safe and he made sure that no one got in the way of him and her to a bit of a weird degree but still. He fought for her. Falk just poked at her and I didn't think it was funny, cute, or sweet.
Now on the story in the beginning I think it was great but as it got into her knitting it just never ended. It almost felt to me like there was no plot. When she got mad at the boys I felt a bit better like there was a plot but then it was gone and then i was so confused on who she was supposed to end up with or if she would at all.
This as alternative endings one if she marries Falk and another is she marries Rune. I loved when she was married to Rune!!! She ran to him!! So sweet! But I read both endings. I think Rune marries Brida if he didn't marry Elise ( I kinda skimmed it) which didn't make me happy at all. >:( But I can see how the author didn't want us to think he was heartbroken forever and never got married especially since he was such a cute catch! :D
Honestly I thought Nick was going to end up with Brida.
I hope that other people will also read it and vote Rune!!!

This review is my honest opinion. I did NOT receive a review copy. I do NOT know this author. I bought this/ read it on KU.
