About this listen

From internationally bestselling author Mary E. Pearson, The Courting of Bristol Keats is the first book in her debut adult fantasy series, filled with forbidden romance, deadly faerie curses and pulse-pounding action.

‘Mary E. Pearson is the new queen of Faerie‘ – Stephanie Garber, bestselling author of Once Upon a Broken Heart

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 has never heard of, who promises to help, Bristol 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 does not know is that he is 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.

Critic reviews

A sweep-you-off-your-feet kind of story, one that yanked me into the lush and dangerous world of fae and monsters from the first page. Make room on your shelves for this magical and compelling fantasy filled with long-kept secrets, devastating betrayals, and a swoony enemies-to-lovers romance (Isabel Ibañez, No. 1 New York Times bestselling author of What the River Knows)
Forbidden romance, deception, and a rich faerie world that's filled with equal parts magic and danger makes for the start of a highly addictive and fantastical new series. Pearson is at the top of her game in this richly satisfying debut that will leave readers hungry for more (Adalyn Grace, No. 1 New York Times bestselling author of Belladonna)
It was with great delight that I looked forward to a new series by Mary E. Pearson — and she did not disappoint. The fae world she creates that intersects ours is rich, lush, and full of the thorny moral conundrums you love about her writing (Jodi Picoult, No. 1 New York Times bestselling author of Wish You Were Here)
At once whimsical and romantic, full of court intrigue and sharp twists that leave us wanting to return to Pearson’s faerie realm (Zoraida Córdova, USA Today bestselling author of The Inheritance of Orquídea Divina)
Pearson's latest offering dishes up plenty of fun for romantasy fans . . . A fun and sometimes steamy romp through fairyland (Kirkus Reviews)
The Courting of Bristol Keats is an ambitious fantasy that interweaves political intrigue and spicy romance while also touching on themes of family, friendship, and self-discovery. Fans of Sarah J. Maas–style romantasy will want to check this one out (Booklist)
With a descriptive narrative and fantastic characters, Pearson expertly draws readers into the world of Elfhame. Great for fans of Leigh Bardugo and Heather Fawcett (Library Journal, Starred Review)

A Beautiful World

I would say there is very little plot as the main focus is the romance, so take that as you will. I really enjoyed the story, and I am excited for book 2.
