Forest of Scarlet

Court of Midsummer Mayhem, Book 1

By: Tara Grayce

Narrated by: Liz Brand

The fae snatch humans as playthings to torment. The Primrose steals them back. Vowing that no other family would endure the same fear and pain she felt when her older sister was snatched by the fae, Brigid puts on an empty-headed façade while she rescues humans in the shadowy guise of the Primrose, hero to humans, bane to the fae. Her only regret is that she can’t tell the truth to Munch, the young man in the human realm who she’s trying very hard not to fall in love with.

Munch has a horrible nickname, an even more terrible full name, and the shadow of his heroic sister and five older brothers to overcome. It’s rough being the little brother of the notorious Robin Hood and her merry band. His only consolation are the brief visits by Brigid, the messenger girl for the dashing fae hero the Primrose. When an entire village of humans are snatched by the fae in a single night, Munch jumps at the chance to go to the Fae Realm, pass a message to Brigid and through her to the Primrose, and finally get his chance to be a hero just like all his older siblings. But the Fae Realm is a dangerous place, especially for a human unbound to a fae or court like Munch. One wrong decision could spell disaster for Munch, Brigid, and the Primrose.

Will this stolen bride’s sister and Robin Hood’s brother reveal the truth of their hearts before it's too late? Or will they, too, find themselves caught in the whims of fae willing to shed blood to get their darkest desires? Loosely inspired by The Scarlet Pimpernel, Forest of Scarlet is book one in a new fantasy romance/fantasy romantic comedy series of standalones featuring magic libraries, a whimsical and deadly fae realm, and crazy fae hijinks by best-selling author Tara Grayce!

Love the story, not the narrator

I love the story, but I didn’t love the voices. Munch sounded like a 15 yr old boy.

Dashing and fun

Once again Liz Brand brings Tara’s characters to life with her humorous intonations and fun voices. I loved getting to see Munch grow into himself and watch a sweet friends to lovers relationship grow between him and Brigid.

SCARLET PIMPERNEL.

THIS STORY WAS DYNAMIC! PHENOMENAL!
YOU WILL LAUGH, AND POSSIBILY CHOKE BECAUSE THE BANTER AND ADVENTURES ARE SO ENTERTAINING AND WONDERFULLY WRITTEN! LIZ BRAND DID A FANTASTIC JOB WITH THE CHARACTERS OF THE STORY!
I HONESTLY CAN NOT WAIT FOR THE NEXT ONE TO COME OUT!

THANK YOU!
TARA GRAYCE!
THIS IS A MASTERPIECE ALL OF ITS OWN!

Ehh

Not a fan. Love Tara’s work! This series just didn’t cut it for me. Luckily she has tons of stories I’ll keep trying!
