This Will Be Fun

This cozy romantic fantasy is set in the magical realm of Mythria, where a group of friends once saved the queendom from darkness. Beatrice and Elowen are best friends, Clare is a former bandit, and their heroic leader was Galwell the Great. Ten years later, everyone still remembers what they did, but the quest cost them dearly, including Galwell's life. They have never recovered, and none of them planned to speak to the others again. Then they receive an invitation they can't refuse, to the wedding of the Queen of Mythria, whose life they saved when she was still a princess. Retracing their original quest on the road is no fun for any of them. Clare hasn't gotten over a one-night stand from their shared past, and Beatrice can't forget the man who once held her heart. Elowen is unprepared for the return of her former flame, the charming and cunning Vandra. Seeing old friends and old lovers again is hard enough, but the journey turns dangerous when the groom is kidnapped. The kidnapping reveals that the dark forces from the heroes' past have returned and are plotting to take over the realm, and only Mythria's former defenders might be able to stop them. They take up old weapons and old instincts and face undead enemies, enchanted swords, crystal caves, coffee shops and games of magical Truth or Dare. The hardest thing to face is their history, full of wounds that never healed and romances that were never forgotten. The book is pitched to readers who enjoy a blend of The Princess Bride and People We Meet on Vacation, as well as fans of Legends and Lattes and Shrek.
