Not for me. This book felt very predictable and cliché to me. The characters were not tangible and the beginning was underdeveloped.

Full fledged five stars. Stunner. Banger.

A wolf-shifter x human romance that is light enough to
binge with a perfect amount of paranormal romance. The story is vivid and cinematic in the best way. If you liked Bride, check this out!

✨Writing that sucks you in
✨Relatable and tangible main characters
✨Amazing side characters and found family
✨Perfect settings that are vivid and prompt wanderlust
✨A thoroughly developed plot
✨Great reps for mental health and boundaries

Also…I am SO EXCITED for book two!!

An absolutely perfect sequel! I’ve read each in this series twice. Each time I pick up one of the books, I love this world and these characters even more. Elle has such a natural way of making the characters and the setting tangible and relatable.

The Nordic Fae series is a light-hearted, medium-stakes, why-choose fantasy romance that will leave you with wanderlust for Norway. ✨
