Summary
A bewitchingly cozy, fiendishly funny cautionary tale about the perils of gatecrashing fairytale kingdoms—particularly ones with drunken unicorns, bored dragons, and sorcerers in tight leather pants.
Sasha Pierce hasn’t had a single dream since she was a child...until she accepts a substitute teaching position in the charmingly witchy village of Old Middleton. Her first dream in twenty-five years ought to be enchanting, but her wonder quickly turns to shock when she realizes that it’s not a dream at all, but an entirely different sort of magic.
Catapulted through an ancient portal into the fairytale kingdom of Between, Sasha’s astonishment is swiftly upgraded to panic when she accidentally performs a supposedly impossible feat and is declared the True Queen of Between...and betrothed to its infuriatingly handsome sorcerer king.
Lorn, Shadow King of Between, is desperate to break free from Between’s clutches. Magically tethered to the ramshackle kingdom, he wages a daily battle to save his disreputable subjects from rampaging magical creatures, sinkholes, and catastrophes of the distressingly lethal variety. To avoid an early grave, he needs an escape plan, not a wife...until he learns that this magicless mortal holds the key to his freedom.
Unwilling to leave her world to accept the crown—or the husband—Sasha must race against the clock to disentangle herself from this fairytale. But her empty throne leaves a dangerous rift between their worlds. As dark forces descend upon Old Middleton, the two must make a choice: work together or unleash fairytale chaos upon their realms.
Between is the spellbinding first novel in The Chronicles of Between fantasy series. Filled with feisty, fairytale-savvy heroines, swoon-worthy sorcerers, slow burn romance, morose minotaurs, and bawdy witches, it’s a laugh-out-loud fairy tale romp.

Very enjoyable but…
First of all the first story I found extremely entertaining and laughed a lot. The story itself was great and very well written. Descriptive enough to picture the scene without going overboard. While I thought that the narration was fabulous especially Emily Ellet I found that I felt really let down by the second half of the book. It is the same as the first but from the man’s perspective with a bit more to keep it interesting. I was so disappointed that I really don’t know whether I will get the next book or not. Such a shame as I love the writing very much.

Sooo Good
I loved this book, it made me cry and and laugh out loud often. Emily's and Steve's voices were just perfect and the story was amazing. I can't wait for the next book, I'm so excited to find out how Sasha copes in Between, how Lorn copes with Sasha not mention getting to bottom of the High Kings scheming.

An eargasm for the senses
Enjoyed every second. The narrators outdone themselves bringing the characters to life. Highly recommended.

A gently amusing, chunky tale, perfect to draft off to.
This is an enjoyable tale, quite funny, entertaining and feels good at bedtime. Sometimes there’s a bit too much filling detail, especially in the first half but we’ll read and throughly enjoyable. Looking forward to the next book.

The humor was amazing
I was thorn between 'it is too long' and 'I could stay in this world my whole life'. I laughed so much.

I need more
This was a wonderfully long story. I loved all the characters and of course the unicorn. I need more in this series and I need it soon.
