After Jacks, the Prince of Hearts, betrays her, Evangeline Fox swears she'll never trust him again. Now that she’s discovered her own magic, Evangeline believes she can use it to restore the chance at happily ever after that Jacks stole away. But when a new terrifying curse is revealed, Evangeline finds herself entering into a tenuous partnership with the Prince of Hearts again. Only this time, the rules have changed. Jacks isn’t the only force Evangeline needs to be wary of. In fact, he might be the only one she can trust, despite her desire to despise him. Instead of a love spell wreaking havoc on Evangeline’s life, a murderous spell has been cast. To break it, Evangeline and Jacks will have to do battle with old friends, new foes, and a magic that plays with heads and hearts. Evangeline has always trusted her heart, but this time she’s not sure she can. . . . Continue the adventure in A Curse for True Love and The Mirror of Infinite Endings ! Also by Stephanie Garber: The Caraval Series: - Caraval - Legendary - Finale - Spectacular Alchemy of Secrets Review: Phenomenal! Magical and Amazing! - “Happy endings can be caught, but they are difficult to hold on to. They are dreams that want to escape the night. They are treasure with wings. They are wild, feral, reckless things that need to be constantly chased, or they will certainly run away.” OMG- I think this book has me more tangled up in my emotions the second time around - I felt everything and it feels almost so hard to express in words. *Broken Sobs* You know how many times the middle book in a trilogy doesn't hold up to the first? Make no mistake about it, this book is even better than the first and I wanted to bring back all these feelings in anticipation for book 3. I won't go into too much in order to avoid spoilers and my review on book 1 covers most of how I feel about this series- it's so unbelievably phenomenal. "You're good at this," she murmured. "Do you often travel with girls who've been flayed?" This earned her a soft laugh. "No." Then quietly, as he ran a cloth along her lower back, just below the dip in her waist, "Would you be jealous if I did?" I'm not a jealous person was what Evangeline intended to say, but instead the words "Of course" came out. Jacks laughed, louder this time. Embarrassment surged through her. "That's not what I meant to say." "It's all right. I'd probably kill another man if I found him with you like this." Jacks's hands pressed harder as they went to her shoulders and, one by one, ripped off the sleeves of her dress so that what remained of the gown completely fell away. She made a sound somewhere between a squeal and a gasp. "Was that really necessary?" "No, but everyone should have their clothes ripped off at some point." In this book, I swear SG breaks you open and just pulls out your emotions. I felt them all, love, fear, anxiety, anger, angst, and pain. Just know that this book is everything MORE than book one. Ugh I love it so much. I'm oh so happy that at the strike of midnight I will have book 3 in my greedy little hands. He looked at her lips, and the most tortured expression she'd ever seen crossed his face. When Jacks wanted something, it was with an intensity that could break worlds and build kingdoms. That was the energy pouring off him now, as if he wanted to destroy her and make her his queen all at once. And it was oh so tempting to let him. Magic crackled in the sliver of space between them. Golden and electric and alive. It felt like the end of a fairytale, when one kiss had more power than a thousand wars or a hundred spells. Evangeline imagined drawing closer, pressing her lips to Jacks's and spending eternity lost in one neverending kiss. oh... maybe one... Review: Amazing - I loved this book so much. The plot really picks up with Eva and Jacks searching for the stones, though in my opinion they found them too easily. The book made it seem like it would be difficult to find the stones, yet it didn't seem all that difficult before they had all four. I feel like Jacks and Eva get closer in this book and Jacks reveals a little more of himself. We get introduced to vampires in this book, which I thought was fun! The ending was unbelievable and has me so impatient for October. Two things that kind of drove me nuts was the 3rd person narration. I'm not a huge fan of it so it kind of took me out of the book sometimes. I feel like a reader gets a better connection to the character when books are written in 1st person, but that's just my opinion. Next, Eva didn't seem to grow at all. She's still very naïve and acts almost like a little girl. She's 17, but considering everything she's been through you'd think she'd be a little more mature. So many times I wanted her to call Jacks out on stuff, but she just gave him the benefit of the doubt and believed whatever he said. It reminded me of a young girl with a crush on an older guy. I also didn't understand her loyalty to Apollo because they literally do not know each other. I understand wanting to help him, but she spoke about him like he was actually her husband and they were going to live happily ever after. It was just weird. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #2,422 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #1 in Teen & Young Adult Fairy Tales & Folklore #7 in Teen & Young Adult Dark Fantasy #14 in Teen & Young Adult Paranormal Romance | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 30,222 Reviews | ## Images ![The Ballad of Never After (Once Upon a Broken Heart, 2) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81896Wx2dUL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Phenomenal!
