About the Book:
Andalin is accustomed to her father’s frequent travels—and to being left behind. So when he returns home and instructs her to pack her belongings, she is bewildered—but there is no time for questions as she is whisked away on a mysterious journey under the cover of night. When their tense flight leads them into the forbidding Black Forest, the pair quickly finds themselves in great peril. With little hope of escape, father and daughter are spared when rescue appears in the form of the mysterious Dark Rider, a notorious deadly highwayman feared by all he meets. But his assistance does not come without a price: he is taking Andalin with him. Now her fate rests in the hands of the enigmatic masked man whose secrets are inescapably tied to the beautiful young woman now in his charge.
My Review:
I was caught up in this inspired story of Beauty and the Beast as Andalin Durante is rushed away from her beloved home by her father and taken to live in a neglected mansion with Lord Ellison Cadogen. The rumors of the Dark Rider (aka Lord Cadogen) and tales of the terror he has caused in the nearby village had me shrinking in the corner. Andalin was much braver and far more courageous than I would have been! She didn’t give into fear, but looked beyond her circumstances to help the tortured Dark Rider find peace.
There were so many things to love about this book that I was ready to reread it as soon as I turned the last page. If you like books with a Gothic flair, a mystery, goosebumpy adventures, and happy endings, this book is 100% for you!
