Four cursed knights. One Warrior Princess. A faerie sword that binds their lives together...
Fionna's only hope to save her family lies across the Irish Sea. As a warrior princess of Ulster, the rival clan holding her father and sister for ransom knows she'll pay any price to get them back. But even she couldn't predict the task set before her - to steal a faerie sword from a king.
The Kingdom of Caerleon is dying under Morgan le Fay's dark magic. Her vengeful curse has locked Excalibur in its scabbard, placing Arthur Pendragon's kingship in jeopardy. Now Arthur and his sword brothers - Lancelot, Galahad, and Percival - have but one hope. The fifth knight. The one foretold by Merlin who will break the curse and heal the land.
But Arthur and his sword brothers didn't expect the warrior to be a fierce and captivating woman. Or the legendary White Fay, prophesied by Morgan la Fay to destroy Caerleon by claiming the heart of a king and three sworn knights.
Contains mature themes.

Great story! Excellent narration!

*Characters: Each of the main protagonists are well-fleshed out enough that you get a good sense about what they're all about and care about them. Some of the antagonists (e.g. Morgana) are also fleshed out enough that she gains some sympathy. The main protagonist--Fiona--is left a bit mysterious but also get a feel for her in some chapters in first-person narration. I also liked Merlin--powerful but not over-powerful, wise but not omniscient, magical but human.
--Each character has their unique flaws as well as virtues and this makes them relatable.
--Being a fan of Arthurian Knight tales from medieval literature to present, I like the choices of the authors in what they took of some of the original characters definitions and what they changed.
*Feel of the Writing: The authors have great agility and depth to communicate the changing feelings of the characters, their verbal and non-verbal expression. I found this beautiful.
*This story balances action, adventure, and romance
*Brave, fighting, strong yet sensitive, heroine in Fiona
Dislikes:
*I like a bit more humor in my fantasy books. While this one had some humor, it is mostly written in a heavy and serious manner. Just my personal preference.
*Pick your favorite ship. Fiona is found amazingly compelling by each Knight & by Arthur himself, she also finds her fellow Knights quite attractive, each in their own unique way; she gets together with multiple of them; I wouldn't be surprised if she became intimate with the others as well in the sequels. I didn't need all the details of the 10-Shades of Gray (but cue forward was useful), but I understand that some really like that stuff.
Enjoyable, well-written

Pros:
- Fiona isn't an insecure blushing flower. She's a confident, a competent fighter, and not blushing virgin. She knows what she wants and goes for it. She has no qualms about her body, and she speaks her mind/ emotions. She doesn't let being tough stop her from telling them her feelings.
- Normalized polyamory! The two Gaelic characters have no issues with it, and it takes the Welsh characters a moment. The authors also pay attention to cultural differences between the Fae, Welsh, and Gaelic characters.
- Normalized queerness! Two of the men get together, and nobody bats an eye.
- Excellent consent. Excellent, hot, steamy smut. And very sex positive. I think I moaned while listening at least twice.
- Every man felt individual and different. It was clear why she liked all of them, even though they are all very different people. They don't feel interchangeable.
- Lots of action and plot, especially in the 3rd book, so I never got bored.
- Excellent narration, the male voice is swoon-worthy.
- No contrived "I love her but I can't tell her" idiot plots! They're all pretty rational, mature adults that grow as people.
Cons:
- The "eastern mystics" in book 2 are super racist. Also, the only people of color in the entire series.
- The readers do have strong accents, so I missed a few sentences because I couldn't understand the accent. Overall not a huge problem and is more on me than the reader.
Neutral:
- VERY fast burn. BUT it's more a horny burn? All of the men are pretty instantly horny for her, and magic plays a part in the love, so it doesn't feel too terribly unrealistic, but it is a pretty quick burn. Usually I hate a fast burn, but I think it was done well here.
- Pretty vanilla smut, but quite passionate and well written.
Overall, if you like reverse harem (especially when some of the men get together) with a strong, confident female lead and lots of plot, I would absolutely recommend this one.
