This week I'm featuring Fierce Heart (Elven Alliance #1) by Tara Grayce. I can't believe I didn't read this sooner. It's such a great fantasy read! If you're interested, I'll be sharing my review next Thursday.
Essie would do anything for her kingdom…even marry an elf prince she just met that morning.
The human kingdom of Escarland and the elven kingdom of Tarenhiel have existed in an uneasy peace after their last wars ended with both kings dead. As tensions rise once again, desperate diplomacy might be the only way to avert war. If only negotiations between elves and humans were that simple.
When a diplomatic meeting goes horribly wrong, Essie, a human princess, finds herself married to the elf prince and warrior Laesornysh. Fitting in to the serene, quiet elf culture might be a little difficult for this talkative princess, but she’s determined to make it work.
With impending war and tenuous alliances, it will be up to Essie to unite her two peoples. And maybe get her hands on elven conditioner while she’s at it.
From bestselling author Tara Grayce comes a romantic fantasy tale of elves, romance, and epic magic.

Book Beginnings / First Line Friday
The two dead elves laid out on tables in the town morgue were young. At least, Essie guessed they were young. It was hard to tell with elves, since they didn't start showing their age until they were at least eight or nine hundred years old.
Friday 56
Before she reached the door, her path was blocked by King Weylind. She tried to step around him, but he shifted into her way. A tall elf king with his arms crossed was a formidable block.
