Description: For as long as she can remember, Evangeline Fox has believed in true love and happy endings . . . until she learns that the love of her life will marry another.

Desperate to stop the wedding and to heal her wounded heart, Evangeline strikes a deal with the charismatic, but wicked, Prince of Hearts. In exchange for his help, he asks for three kisses, to be given at the time and place of his choosing.

But after Evangeline’s first promised kiss, she learns that bargaining with an immortal is a dangerous game ― and that the Prince of Hearts wants far more from her than she’d pledged. He has plans for Evangeline, plans that will either end in the greatest happily ever after, or the most exquisite tragedy.

Isa's Picks: If you enjoyed Jacks from the Caraval series and wished he had more page time, this book is a must-read for you. In this book, we follow the girl who was turned to stone in the last book of Caraval, Finale.

Now if you haven't read Finale (The last book of Caraval) yet, let me suggest an alternate reading guide. I personally don't like spoilers, no matter how small!

When you get to Caraval's last book Finale, you want to read up to chapter 16. Don't read chapter 16. Switch right on over to this book, Once Upon A Broken Heart. Read up to chapter five. This chapter has about one to two sentences. Read that, then head back over and finish Finale!
