This book had potential but it was poorly executed and in some places trying to hard. The character did not seem fleshed out enough for me and I made it hard for me to relate and understand their growing relationship.
Once again, mainstream books - step aside! Indie novels are here to challenge your place! A Deal with the Elf King was definitely strong on the B&B retelling vibes, along with Hades/Persephone, etc. Actually, when I saw the cover, the FIRST thing I thought was “omg is that Hades and Persephone???!” I thought the writing style was great and fast-paced, at first I thought things were happening a little too quickly, but I actually ended up really enjoying the pace and nature of the book. Luella is a strong-willed MC - typical in fantasy/YA I guess, but I like it. Her relationship with the Elf King is also very fleshed out and believable given her circumstances and what she's been forced to go through. I would say this was a guilty pleasure romance read, but....there's nothing guilty about it.
3.5 stars. Cute book. Writing wasn't my typical style, but I liked the story.
Second book by this author I've read. Unfortunately, both stories didn't work to me. I don't enjoy the way the author does characters or plots, so won't be reading any more. Too bad, I liked the book blurb.
