Once upon a time, there was a king and queen in a land called Love’s Keep who once loved one another, but alas, no more. Without love, they were doomed to be ousted from their kingdom at the end of a year and a day.
A year and a day passed.
This is where their story starts.
Imelda and Ambrose can’t remember why they got married. A year and a day ago, Ambrose consulted a witch, trading their love to save Imelda’s life – and they’ve been stuck with one another ever since. When that same witch pays them a visit on the day they lose their kingdom, she promises to make their deepest wishes come true in exchange for a simple favor and a short journey. With nothing left to lose, Imelda and Ambrose agree. But, over the course of their enchanted road trip peppered with a delirious cloak, cannibals, and at least one honey badger, something magical happens…little by little, step by step, they regain what they had forgotten.
They remember why they fell in love.
When the end of their journey nears and they confront parting ways forever, a new decision faces them. Will Imelda and Ambrose choose their deepest wishes, or will they choose each other – again?

This story is nothing new, or original, but in its own way it actually IS quite both of those very things. Which may sound a little odd, but so is this adorable, charming, heart-warming fairytale novella. This story was Joy with a capital J packaged in the shape of an adorable, charming, little book. I absolute adored it, and laughed out out, and even swooned a bit, and shed a few happy tears. Roshani Chokshi is one of my absolute favorite authors; her prose is so alluring, clever, & beautiful... and so very readable... so much so that I never want her stories to end. But alas, all stories do. Until next time!
