A forgotten princess. A deadly quest. A threat that hides in shadow....
Sixteen-year-old Cora is a princess with a dark past. Exile has kept her safe. But when she rescues a dying unicorn from a mysterious band of hunters, her identity - and her life - are in danger.
Prince Teryn has the perfect plan - win the quest, marry his betrothed, and become king. But his mission goes awry when he faces a feisty young woman in the woods. Although they meet as foes, she shares a secret that bonds them.
Teryn and Cora’s fates are entwined in a plot far deadlier than they ever imagined. Can they face the threat together? Or will a terrifying enemy destroy the land they love?
Shadows of Lela is book one in the Lela Trilogy. If you like swoon-worthy romance, adventurous quests, breathtaking magic, and surprising twists, then you’ll love Tessonja Odette’s epic fantasy tale.
My Thoughts:
I wasn't sure what to expect from this book as it is a new author and narrator to me, but I loved it! Cora has been raised away from the comforts of a princess that she should have been accustomed to. It wasn't her choice but probably was what wound up being the best thing for her. Teryn is a prince out on a crazy quest.
I loved the first meeting between Teryn and Cora. It was great! I love how the author twisted the story lines together and how we get the different viewpoints. The narrator did a good job of giving each character their own voice. There were funny parts, creepy parts, and loving parts to this story. Lots of elements wonderfully balanced and I cannot wait to see what the author does next with these characters in this land.
It was a 5/5 for me!
