When Stacey imagined “The One,” it never occurred to her that her summertime Faire fling, Dex MacLean, might fit the bill. Stacey vows to have her life figured out by the time her friends get hitched at Faire next summer. She knew she was putting her life on hold when she stayed in Willow Creek to care for her sick mother, but it’s been years now, and even though Stacey loves spending her summers pouring drinks and flirting with patrons at the local Renaissance Faire, she wants more out of life. Stacey is jolted when her friends Simon and Emily get engaged.

But is this attraction real, or just part of the characters they’re portraying? Yet on the faire grounds he becomes a different person, flirting freely with Emily when she’s in her revealing wench’s costume. The faire is Simon’s family legacy and from the start he makes clear he doesn’t have time for Emily’s lighthearted approach to life, her oddball Shakespeare conspiracy theories, or her endless suggestions for new acts to shake things up. Summary from publisher:Įmily knew there would be strings attached when she relocated to the small town of Willow Creek, Maryland, for the summer to help her sister recover from an accident, but who could anticipate getting roped into volunteering for the local Renaissance Faire alongside her teenaged niece? Or that the irritating and inscrutable schoolteacher in charge of the volunteers would be so annoying that she finds it impossible to stop thinking about him?
There’s going to be a follow up novel coming out next year and I’m looking forward to future books from DeLuca!Ĭheck out the review on my instagram. There’s some steam, but not a ton of those scenes. For fans of Christina Lauren, The Bookish Life of Nina Hill, etc. Now I’m trying to figure out where I can find a Faire near me!Įnglish nerds and book lovers will enjoy this (that’s all of us, right?!) if you enjoy fun, lighthearted romances. I think the setting of a renaissance faire wasn’t a huge draw for me. Originally I wasn’t drawn to the description for this book, but reviews changed my mind.
There seemed to be a lot of time spent on the build up and on miscommunications I would have liked a bit more depth and growth. However, I also wish there was a bit more of it. I found the romance in this one to be a bit sweeter than some of the others in similar genres. What’s worse is having to deal with the know-it-all in charge, Simon, who she can’t stand.
She gets roped into volunteering at the Faire in her place. Emily is in town to help out her sister, whose recovering from an accident. This was a cute one! This hate to love rom-com is set against the local Renaissance Faire.
