*Content Advice: This book is an adult romance novel containing mature themes and explicit content. Not suitable for younger readers.*
After losing both their parents, Bristol Keats and her sisters struggle to stay afloat in their small, quiet town of Bowskeep. When Bristol begins to receive letters from an 'aunt' she's never heard of, who promises to help, she reluctantly agrees to meet her - and discovers that everything she thought she knew about her family is a lie. Her father might even still be alive, not killed but kidnapped by terrifying creatures and taken to another realm - the one he is from.
Desperate to save her father and find the truth, Bristol journeys to a land of gods, fae and monsters. Pulled into a dangerous world of magic and intrigue, she makes a deadly bargain with the fae king, Tyghan. But what she doesn't know is that he's the one who drove her parents to live a life on the run. And he is just as determined as she is to find her father - dead or alive . . .
A heart-wrenching love story that spans worlds and decades, The Courting of Bristol Keats by Mary E. Pearson explores second chances - the ones we are denied and the ones we refuse to give - and the lines we cross that may never be forgiven.

      Brittany Pressley's low-voiced narration of Bristol Keats's visit to the fae realms shows her versatility as a narrator. She progresses from Bristol's tentative observations of King Tyghan's kingdom to her impatience over court protocol and magical deceptions. Bristol's perilous deal with Tyghan and search for her missing father have her emotions simmering, and Pressley replicates that jittery quality in her delivery. Bristol's fellow recruits, as well as the fae soldiers, are given varying accents and vocal stylings, ranging from malevolent creature whispers to the languid scorn of female fae courtiers. While the story unfolds in minute increments, Pressley's vocal choices create tense pacing that will keep listeners interested through the cliff-hanger ending. An author/narrator interview concludes the audiobook. C.A. © AudioFile 2025, Portland, Maine
