The Goblins of Bellwater by Molly Ringle

The Goblins of Bellwater - 4 Stars

Synopsis

A contemporary romance inspired by Christina Rossetti's eerie, sensual poem, "Goblin Market." Four neighbors encounter sinister enchantments and a magical path to love in a small, modern-day Puget Sound town, where a fae realm hides in the woods and waters...

Most people have no idea goblins live in the woods around the small town of Bellwater, Washington. But some are about to find out.

Skye, a young barista and artist, falls victim to a goblin curse in the forest one winter night, rendering her depressed and silenced, unable to speak of what happened. Her older sister, Livy, is at wit’s end trying to understand what’s wrong with her. Local mechanic Kit would know, but he doesn’t talk of such things: he’s the human liaison for the goblin tribe, a job he keeps secret and never wanted, thrust on him by an ancient family contract.

Unaware of what’s happened to Skye, Kit starts dating Livy, trying to keep it casual to protect her from the attention of the goblins. Meanwhile, unbeknownst to Kit, Skye draws his cousin Grady into the spell through an enchanted kiss in the woods, dooming Grady and Skye both to become goblins and disappear from humankind forever.

It’s a midwinter night’s enchantment as Livy, the only one untainted by a spell, sets out to save them on a dangerous magical path of her own.


Review

I received with thanks an ARC copy of The Goblins of Bellwater from Cemtral Avenue Publishing & Netgalley.

This is my true and honest review of The Goblins of Bellwater by Molly Ringle. This was published in October 2017
I love goblins so had a feeling that I would enjoy this very much. This a creepy fairy tale, paranormal romance that is great for urban fantasy lovers.
Give this a go if you love urban fantasy.
