The only problem is, she's unaware of his true identity, and her selfish uncle will do anything to keep her from realizing her dreams. THE HUNTSMAN'S SNOW – Mandy M. Roth Sometimes, a prince isn't as charming as history would like you to believe. And sometimes, a princess needs an alpha male shifter to find her happily ever after.

I wish I could have liked it, but the first story devolved into a lust-fest and pretty much ruined the book for me. ( )

(Review of one story. Not giving the collection an official star rating until I finish reading them all.)

4/5 stars for Nikki Jefford's The Toad Prince.

What first jumped at me when reading this was something later confirmed in the author note after the story. There's a Pride and Prejudice feel in it. While I didn't love that book, I did appreciate the story and I like how Jefford was able to work in some light elements into her story. I also liked how, while it didn't feel exactly like a retelling of The Frog Prince, the main event of that one was worked in without doing the obvious.

Another reason I enjoyed the story was the world building. This is set in the world of an upcoming series from Jefford, and she used this story to help introduce it. I may have liked a little more world building, but it's a short story and there wasn't much space. It's more of a teaser and it did what it needed to do.

I'm not sure where this Far North Fairy Tales series will go, but I'll definitely be reading it. And I'll be returning to this collection soon, as well.
