Evangeline Fox wants nothing more than to live happily ever after. But her hopes are dashed when she learns that the love of her life is getting engaged to her stepsister Marisol. To stop the wedding, Evangeline decides to make a deal with the Prince of Hearts. But instead of getting what she wants, she becomes embroiled in a series of unfortunate events.

Once Upon a Broken Heart is everything you could wish for in a cosy young adult fantasy. The fantastic writing, with which Stephanie Garber tells the story like a fairy tale, will pull you in and not let you go until you have finished the book. On more than one occasion, I forgot I was reading and time flew as I couldn’t put the book down. A whimsical read, perfect for a rainy autumn day spent curled up with a blanket and a cup of tea in front of a crackling fire.
