Once Upon a Broken Heart

by Stephanie Garber

Our rating

Spice 1/5 Darkness 2/5

Spice: barely any. Darkness: some dark moments.

Evangeline Fox makes a deal with Jacks, the Prince of Hearts, to stop the wedding of the boy she loves. The price is three kisses, collected whenever he likes. Sugary fairy-tale prose with a hero who is absolutely not a hero.
