Bound by Honey by Jamie Dalton

4.0

This book transported me to a magical realm where Sage, a devoted bibliophile turned librarian, stumbles into an extraordinary escapade. The Charming Four, a captivating group of mages led by cursed Prince Finn, disrupts her serene life, infusing it with chaos and charm. Jamie Dalton weaves a spellbinding narrative, merging cozy mystery with low-risk, high-stakes fantasy romance. As Sage allies with her newfound companions to unravel Prince Finn's curse, the story overflows with potion brewing and enchanting creatures. While the romance blossoms swiftly, the book's brevity occasionally leaves certain relationships feeling undernourished. The genuine enchantment arises from Sage's camaraderie with her gargoyle friend Freddy, witty repartees with the Charming Four, and the captivating world-building. A part of the Starry Kingdoms of the Fae Collection, this cozy, standalone adventure is tailor-made for those who crave a fusion of magic, companionship and love within a concise narrative.
