Book description
The Princess Bride meets People We Meet on Vacation in this cozy romantasy about a group of friends who once saved their magical land together but haven't spoken in ten years, reuniting to attend a royal wedding then ending up on a new quest to defend the realm, for readers of Legends and Lattes and lovers of Shrek.Ten years ago, they saved the realm. It ruined their lives.In the magical realm of Mythria, everyone remembers how best friends Beatrice and Elowen, ex-bandit Clare, and their heroic leader Galwell the Great defended the queendom from darkness. Ten years later, the former heroes have never recovered from what their famous quest cost them--including the life of Galwell. None ever planned on speaking to the others again. Until, that is, they receive an invitation they cannot ignore--the wedding of the Queen of Mythria, whose life they saved when she was princess.Reunited on the road, retracing their original heroic quest, is no fun whatsoever for Beatrice and Clare--Clare not over the one-night-stand in their past, Beatrice unable to forget the man who once had her heart--nor for Elowen, unprepared for the return of her former flame, the charming and cunning Vandra. While reuniting with ex-friends and ex-lovers is challenging enough, their new journey grows perilous when the kidnapping of the groom reveals the resurgence of the dark forces from the heroes' past, plotting domination only Mythria's onetime defenders could maybe--just maybe--defeat. Dusting off old weapons and old instincts, they face undead nemeses, unquenchable passions, crystal caves, coffee shops, enchanted swords, games of magical Truth or Dare--and hardest of all, their past, rife with wounds never healed and romances never forgotten.With companions like theirs, every love story is a quest for happily ever after.SynopsisFormer friends and former flames reunite on a mayhem-spike quest in this cozy romantasy perfect for readers of Legends & Lattes and lovers of Shrek."This delightful novel has the best The Princess Bride vibes." --Jodi PicoultTEN YEARS AGO, THE SAVED THE REALM.
