Publisher's summary

Fifteen years ago, Prince Graham of Ardglass barely escaped from the ancestral castle with his young life. Rescued by a magical creature and spirited off to a faraway valley, he grew into a strong, capable man - never shirking his duties on the farm, but forever bitter over his father’s betrayal. But just when he has finally come to terms with being lost and staying lost, a visitor arrives in his valley and changes everything.

After a lifetime spent lost in his beloved books, Prince Emory awakens to find his villainous aunt working to usurp the throne of Fontaine. When she sends him on a dangerous quest, he’s certain the journey is a trap, but he’s not willing to accept defeat without a fight.

But a fight is something Rory is unprepared and untrained for, until he’s saved by a handsome, unassuming farmhand and his snooty, smug, and surprisingly talkative unicorn.

Yours, Forever After now includes a bonus novella, completing Gray and Rory's magical quest for true love.

Great audiobook

I read this book first so it was interesting to hear it in audible for I was really surprised at some of the voices they were a lot deeper and gruffer than I had expected lol this story is a really great adventure there’s a long journey that builds the trust and love of Rory and grey and I enjoyed it immensely though there were some parts I wished things would move faster and were a bit more formally spoken than I’m used to though I suppose that’s to be expected in a past times book it was still easy to read and listen to

Fun!

With the audiobook Yours, Forever After, author, Beth Bolden, does a great job writing a compelling romance between a young Prince and a man helping him along the way.

I loved the fantasy in this audiobook. There was a sarcastic unicorn that made me laugh. This audiobook story was like a movie; this book was a remarkable tale with heroes and villains, great adventures, and a slow-burn romance. The audiobook narrator did a great job! I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book.

Great fantasy tale

I enjoyed this story very much when I read it. I am a huge fantasy fan but this author does not normally write in this genre. When I heard there was going to be an audiobook, I got very excited. Brennan Rossi may be a new voice in narration but they did an excellent job! I loved their characterizations and it added a lot to my enjoyment of this story! If you like a story spun about good vs evil with magic, an evil sorceress, 2 struggling princes and a meddling unicorn the you absolutely must listen to this book!

Exciting Adventure Romance!

Brennan is a new narrator for me, and I enjoyed how genuinely into the story he was! He did fun voices for each of the characters, especially Evrard our snobby unicorn! Gray keeps Rory at a distance at first as he has been living alone for so long and does not trust anyone. As they head out on their journey, they each prove that they are loyal and trustworthy and grow close. I appreciated that the romance was more a slow burn as that was realistic given their circumstances and the danger and magic all around! This was a very enchanting listen, and I cannot wait for Evrard's story!

Just okay

Beth Bolden takes us on a bit of a wild, if not lengthy, magical ride. Gray and Rory were a lovely grumpy/sunshine slow burn pairing. The audiobook was entertaining and well narrated but the story does seem to drag in the middle. Unfortunately not even the quite funny brash Evrard can convince me to give this more than a solid 3 stars for the story. I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this audiobook.

A fun romantic fantasy - by Shana W

I thoroughly enjoyed this story, in both the ebook and audiobook forms. Gray and Rory complement each other so nicely, and I really enjoyed the mysterious unicorn Evrard and his interactions with the other characters. While the ending is predictable, the things that happen on the way through the story are occasionally fresh and often funny. In the audiobook form, I at first found it difficult to get into Brennan Rossi's narration, as he didn't use much inflection to start with, but by the end I was enjoying his reading very much. I recommend both the ebook and the audiobook.

Great book

I sometimes have a hard time to get a paranormal book because whey often have hard names and alot of story around the story.

But this book I actually loved! It was a great story with love between 2 princes.

Enjoyable high fantasy

I really enjoyed this high fantasy, slow burn romance. Two princes, one lost and one naive, are destined to be together. With the help of a unicorn king, Gray and Rory go on an epic journey to regain their thrones and finally put a stop to an evil sorceress's plans. I liked the pacing of the story. Gray and Rory had to go on a journey of selfdiscovery as well as finding love with each other. Full of adventure, magic, feelings, and a sprinkle of humor. Brennan Rossi is a new to me narrator. He did a great job voicing the characters. Each voice was distinct and fit well with their character's description.

Love this story!!

I love this story! Rory and Gray's story checks lots of boxes for me- magical creatures, a quest, and ultimately the HEA. I like seeing these men figure out how to make a relationship work for them, and I love the found family they acquire on the way. I'm excited about the next book and can't wait to start it!

Good characters and romance arc

Yours, Forever After is a character-driven fantasy story with a lot of heart. Graham was forced to leave his home to escape the whims of a bloodthirsty sorceress. Rory found himself nearly victim to the same sorceress, but inexplicably rescued by the taciturn Graham. Add one pushy unicorn and some tough warrior women, and the result is an entertaining love story between a world-weary prince and his sheltered counterpart. I listened to the audiobook, and while it took awhile to get into, I found myself drawn in by the characters and their romance arc. If you like your fantasy with lots of character development and a bit lighter on the action, this is a great choice.
