Ivy Benton is more than willing to pay it to safe her sister, whose last season ended with tears, disappointment and a scandal. A scandal, which has ruined Ivy´s hopes of finding a suitable husband completely. Seeing no other option than taking part in the surprisingly announced competition for the hand of the faerie queen´s son, she starts her first season out in society. Soon she learns that the fae are as cruel as they are beautiful and that everyone at court has their secrets. "The rose bargain“ is a clever combination of romantic stories like "Bridgerton“ or "Pride and Prejudice“ and fantasy novels like "The cruel prince“. Ivy Benton as a desperate, yet smart and sarcastic protagonist is really fun to read. With each chapter, the plot gets more interesting, more layered. Secrets are revealed, love starts to bloom and friends are made. It all ends with a heartbreaking sacrifice and one of the biggest, most shocking twists I´ve ever experienced in a story!
