Once Upon a Castle

Magic, castles, and romance come together with enchanting results in this charming collection of four novellas by some of Jove's more notable writers. Nora Roberts leads off with "Spellbound," a fast-paced story of spells and consequences; Jill Gregory provides a gothic touch and a dash of evil in her darker "Castle Doom"; Ruth Ryan Langan adds treachery and a wonderfully romantic spirit, in "Falcon's Lair"; and Marianne Willman's fairytale-like "Dragonspell" nicely completes the quartet. This well-focused collection is a good addition to the late winter romance market and readers who like their romance on the magical side will find it enjoyable reading.
