Said to be a changeling child left to the King and Queen of Cornwall, Gwendolyn is "blessed" at her cradle by three Fae gifts: a prophecy for her future, a gift of "Reflection," and a golden mane-quite literally, every lock of her hair will turn to gold, only provided it is cut by her one true love.

Yet no one understands more than Gwendolyn that her blessings are actually curses. Any man who gazes upon her will see his own heart reflected in her countenance, and depending upon his virtue, she is the loveliest woman in all the land… or the most hideous. It's a cruel jest of the capricious Fae, for unless a man's heart be true, Gwendolyn is destined to be coveted for her crown, but despised for her face.

To make matters worse, Gwendolyn's ailing father is desperate for an alliance with King Brutus of Loegria. "The Romans are coming!" and according to the Goldenchild Prophecy, only by uniting their dragon banners can they stem the Red Tide. Offered to Brutus's ambitious son, Prince Locrinus, Gwendolyn's heart is tempted by a mysterious, maddening half-blood Fae who she can never wed if she is to fulfill her crib side prophecy.

Contains mature themes.

It sounds like it would be a good book, and the first few sentences aren’t bad. But then the ridiculous little girl does nothing but whine. She’s supposed to be 17, yet acts like a child. The whole of what I have heard is her jumping back and forth in an internal never ending debate. Her prejudice against the other romantic interest is childish and unfounded and after thinking she doesn’t see her other romantic interest in that way, invites him to swim with her. And the going on about her face. Big deal, as far as I can tell she’s not ugly or plain, it’s a curse that anyone can see their true self reflected. If the little idiot had half a brain she use to know who to trust and who not too. Instead she whines that her mother doesn’t love her. Can’t bare the site of her,.. no her mother cannot bare the site of herself. As nothing to do with the brat. Maybe it will get better

Oh Good Grief

Not a romance- no happily ever after- more like a young adult fantasy novel. Ridiculous and unnecessary plot twists The narrator was terrific. I’m sorry I wasted my time on it.

Not a happy ending

Epic !!! A magnificent writing based on the early history of Britannia. You'll have Tuatha Dedanen, A Kings only Heir, A girl, who was both blessed and cursed at birth. There are mysteries to be solved, most committed for greed...
Amazing, amazing book! I'd say one of Tonya Anne Crosby's very best!
I also bought the audiobook when it came out, narrated by Marian Hussey who did a masterful job making the voices of each character differentiated and believable! DO NOT MISS THIS ONE!!! Can't wait till book 2 comes out!!! (In a weird way its greatness compares with the legendary " Gone With the Wind" by Margaret Mitchell) ❤❤❤❤❤

It took me awhile to get into this book, about 8 chapters or so. I wish there had been some indication when this was supposed to take place. The story alluded to Helen of Troy and Druids were around so I assume it was long before the medieval era. Overall it was OK but I’m not sure I will continue on with the series. I can’t say there is all that much character development in this first book.

It’s OK
