Author's Description
She came to save her village from drought and curses. A tree spirit decided he needed someone to love. Deemed curse, Taya is willing to risk everything if it saves her village. Versal, Lord of Fire and Winter, finds himself drawn to her. Mystery surrounds the curses that were part of an ancient treaty. He can't violate the treaty & must not fall in love with her. But fate & danger keep thrusting them together. Can he resist the strange human woman or will he bring about war and banishment?
Why I Chose it
This one had interesting descriptions, a sense of mystery which let me know the story was heading somewhere, and the first episodes ends on a nice little hook.
[9 episodes so far, with 4 updates in the last 30 days.]
Who Might Like This
High fantasy mixed with romance — if that's your catnip, this story is for you!
Unrelated Griping
Either I'm especially picky today, or the bonuses being paid each month are encouraging people to dump stories into Vella knowing that it doesn't really matter if nobody reads them. Whew! I went through about 80 before I found this one.
Many of the 5-star reviews have to be generated by author swaps (independent of quality) or else some people are far more forgiving about plot and character than I am. Possibly both. All I can say is that filtering on 4 stars or higher doesn't produce a list of better stories (aside from the top 10 which get shoved at everyone on every page) than searching on random nouns.
