After a car accident takes the life of a young woman, she is given the choice of which fairy tale she will enter, or she can go on to the hereafter. Since she can't seem to choose one, she asks her fairy godmother to. After she makes choice, of which fairy tale Leah will live in, she tells her that she has only one month to make Baron Royce FitzWarren to fall in love with her. If she fails, her new life is over.Once Leah meets him, she wonders if she even has a chance. Intent and focused, her knight obviously doesn't trust her. Will he let down the walls of his heart enough to fall in love? She doesn't know, but she isn't giving up without a fight.Royce is quite leery of the nude lady his men find on the beach. He suspects she is either the leman of Lord Rutledge or his spy. Can he afford to trust Leah with her air of innocence? Is she really mute or making a fool of him?This is a wonderful story with characters that draw you in; get lost in their search for each other. I loved how vulnerable, but strong Leah was. And I sympathized with Royce's hesitation to trust, but he was still protective and caring. The fairy godmother is both humorous and aggravating. Try this one out! I was not expecting to like this one as much as I did! Highly recommended!
