Dance of Hearts: a Cinderella Regency Romance Retelling (Historical Fantasy Fairytale Retellings #1) by Bryd Nash

This is the first book I’ve read by Nash. The author knows how to capture a reader’s attention. I absolutely loved this retell.

Melinda is now living like Cinderella. She is working for the family that has moved into her home. When she finds that her friend from when she was a kid is coming home things change. The quote I chose for Melinda is: “Perhaps it would be best to keep your finery a secret? Thus the gentlemen can be amazed and delighted when they see you?”

Kaye is coming back to visit after his great uncle left him the house. He is coming back after all this time and he’s hoping to find a wife. The quote I chose for Kaye is: “They don’t know me or what I look like . Never wrote me letters until last month. I only agreed in coming here as I thought it might be a change from town. We couldn’t visit Birch Hall. The roof is still being replaced.”

Highly recommended for Fantasy Romance lovers.

This is a retelling of the classic fairytale of Cinderella. It is a historical romance which remains true to the era it was about. The story as a whole had a Jane Austin feel to it. It was beautifully written. Although short, the characters were well rounded and had depth to them. You feel the unfairness of Melinda’s situation and will jump forward joy when it’s her time to shine. I loved the addition of the Fae element which gave the story a supernatural twist. If you are looking fir a quick read with a happily ever after then I highly recommend this book.
