The King's Spinster Bride

This was a wonderful sorry about Princess Halla who saves the life of a Cyclops boy named Mathior she was 16 and he was 8 there families are at war her Father dies in the battle. And making Halla queen for an hour but she wont let anyone hurt Mathior and that courage for protecting him turns into love shes sent away to the Riekki Temple to live out her days... Until shes met with Mathior again but now hes all gown up and King and he will do anything to make Halla his Queen! This book was hilarious, loving, friendship Halla always saying she was older then Mathior she was but at 32 and him 24 not old at all there live story was a wonderful read and they had a baby boy named after Mathior's Father Alistair HEA!

Sixteen years ago, Princess Halla did the one thing that no one in her kingdom would have agreed to. She saved a boy from being murdered by her guards. Mathior was 8 yrs old then. Fast forward 16 years later. Mathior is now king or first warrior as he prefers to be called of his clan, Cyclopae. He has never forgotten Halla and plans to make her his.

I thought this story was so sweet. A part of me truly understood what she was going through. She saw herself as old, unworthy, a spinster with nothing to offer him. But he saw the beauty that she is and has always loved her. I think there are those of use that have felt that or doubted ourselves. I know I have. Mathior never pressures her but shows her that he loves her. He cared nothing about her clan or his, only about Halla. He wanted nothing more. She just needed to realize that there will be those that will always see his people as barbarians but they are judging them on stories they have heard. I loved this book.

This is a May / December story. I really liked and enjoyed reading.
The story is of a young woman, Princess Halla, who's father, the King Gallin, of Yshrem, is in battle with the Cyclops First Warrior King Alistair. Halla cares for the young boy, Mathior, who has been with her a month as a prisoner of war. Mathior is the son of Alistair.
The war was lost, King Gallin is dead and his daughter, now Queen Halla awaits Alistair the Conqueror, with Mathior by her side. Mathior holds Halla's hand and states, "I won't forget, Halla."
Fast forward 16 years...

This was definitely a different kind of royal wedding. Between how they met, the age difference, and the whole story in general, this was a very interesting tale. And quite enjoyable. The whole series was definitely fun, between the different ways the kings met their future brides, and the heat and chemistry they all have. I would definitely recommend reading them all

THE KING'S SPINSTER BRIDE is the first standalone novella under the Royal Wedding series! This is about the long exiled Princess Halla, and how a boy she once saved, now a King, Mathior, came back to finally claim her. This story was so good! It was oozing sweetness, warmth, and heat! What a great way to introduce an amazing series! Loved it!

I have received and read an advanced copy of this book and this is a fair and honest recommendation voluntarily shared.

Another author that writes in a way that just pulls you in and you are hoping it won't end too soon. This book by Ruby was a wonderful read especially of an older woman and younger man. It was great read and I loved every chapter every word.

This book was too sweet and romantic for words. Loves the chemistry between the characters and the play on Cyclops. Ruby always does it with these amazing fantasy worlds and characters. Makes you think they exist somewhere.
