What A Curse for True Love is about
Evangeline Fox set out for the Magnificent North chasing a happy ending, and it seems she found one: she is married to a handsome prince and lives in a castle out of legend. What she does not know is how much she paid to get there, or what was taken from her. Her husband intends to keep it that way, and to do so he first has to get rid of Jacks, the Prince of Hearts.
This is the final book in the Once Upon A Broken Heart trilogy, so readers new to the series will want to begin earlier. For those who have followed Evangeline this far, it brings two villains, one girl and a high-stakes fight over whether love, and a happily ever after, can survive the lies at its centre.
