"Two rival writers.
One prestigious publishing contract.
A bargain of hearts and seduction.
They say never bargain with the fae. They also say don’t get drunk on fae wine. Yet romance author Edwina Danforth has managed a blunder with both on her first visit to the infamous faelands."
After reading these first two lines from the synopsis, I knew that I wanted to read this book.
I am talking about A rivalry of Hearts by Tessonja Odette, which is a spicy standalone adult fantasy romcom in the Fae Flings and Corset Strings series.
Every book in the series can be read on its own in any order and ends with a HEA. If you like academic rivals, enemies to lovers, and quirky heroines, then you’ll love this sizzling tale.
Also The Fae Flings and Corset Strings series is set in the same world as The Fair Isle Trilogy and Entangled with Fae .
I really enjoyed reading A Rivalry of Hearts. It was the first book that I read from the author and now I am intrigued to read more books by her.
This book is at the same time cozy and spicy with great character dynamics and a very interesting world. I especially liked the banter between our main characters and the trope of enemies to lovers was done really well by the author.
A Rivalry of Hearts is a perfect for readers who like lighthearted, humorous romance with a touch of fantasy, particularly those who enjoy the enemies-to-lovers and rivals-to-lovers tropes, as well as the magical world of fae, and are looking for a sizzling, standalone tale with a happy-ever-after ending.

About the book:
They say never bargain with the fae. They also say don’t get drunk on fae wine. Yet romance author Edwina Danforth has managed a blunder with both on her first visit to the infamous faelands. Now she's trapped in a magic-fueled bet she barely remembers with a man she’d be happier to forget. The terms? Whoever can bed the most lovers during their month-long dueling book tour wins a coveted publishing contract.
The win should be easy for Edwina. She’s known for penning scintillating tales of whirlwind romance. There’s just one her imagination vastly exceeds her bedroom experience. But when failure means plummeting her career back into obscurity, losing isn’t an option.
Her handsome fae rival, William Haywood, poses an even greater challenge. Not only are his looks as aggravatingly perfect as his track record behind closed doors, but he has his own reasons for playing to win, and he won’t go down without a fight. Unless, of course, it’s a different kind of going down. In that case, he’s fair game.
Edwina and William clash in a rivalry of romance. But what happens when their objects of desire…turn out to be each other?
See you in the next post and don't forget to keep reading!!!
