About this listen

RITA Award Winner, Historical Romance, Short, 2015

As the daughter of a famed author, Isolde Ophelia Goodnight grew up on tales of brave knights and fair maidens. She never doubted romance would be in her future, too. The storybooks offered endless possibilities.

And as she grew older, Izzy crossed them off. One by one by one.

  • Ugly duckling turned swan?
  • Abducted by handsome highwayman?
  • Rescued from drudgery by charming prince?

No, no, and…Heh.

Now Izzy's given up yearning for romance. She'll settle for a roof over her head. What fairy tales are left over for an impoverished 26-year-old woman who's never even been kissed?

This one.

amazing read

I'm happy to find this isn't another romance about dukes with perfect skin and teeth and women who are impossibly beautiful . though the fandom for Izzy seems cringy , I liked the emotional journey ransom and Izzy went though. the ending was slightly soppy but the writing is witty and enjoyable. I like the combination of realistic character portrayal as allowable in historic romances with witty writing and excellent narration by Carmen rose . this is a refreshing change from the stifling perfection of the usual historic romances . the quirky characters are likable and relatable .

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
