Entwined

Entwined by Heather Dixon

Pages: 472
Azalea is trapped. Just when she should feel that everything is before her . . . beautiful gowns, dashing suitors, balls filled with dancing . . . it's taken away.
All of it.
The Keeper understands. He's trapped too, too, held for centuries within the walls of the palace. And so he extends an invitation.
Every night, Azalea and her eleven sisters may step through the enchanted passsage in their room to dance in his silver forest.
But there is a cost.
The Keeper likes to keep things.
Azalea may not realize how tangled she is in his web until it is too late.

Riveting. Enthralling. Beautiful.

First off, I love that the twelve sisters are all named after flowers. (Even their aunt!) The girls were such fun characters. I felt really bad for the King at times, because they overpowered him! And it made me wish I had eleven sisters!

I also love the romance. The King is trying to find suitors for Azalea, but they are all terrible! The tricks those girls played on some of the men just made me burst out laughing. They were just hilarious!

The story plot, though not original to begin with, was beautiful. I love this take on The Twelve Dancing Princesses: the characters, the magic ball room, and the climax. I was just sucked into this book and I never wanted to leave that world! Except for, you know, when the evil guy was trying to kill people. (:

Overall I loved this book and I highly recommend it to everyone! If you love a good romance, and are in for a good laugh, pick this one up.

Overall Rating: 4.5 Stars
Cover Love: 5 Hearts!
