The Sea-Bear's Wife. Regency Magic Faerie Tales, #7

As a poor laundress's daughter and the eldest of eight siblings, Nora Sheppard doesn't have much for marriage prospects, but she never expects a proposal from a giant white bear. When his offer is accompanied by a promise of financial support-and education-for her siblings, she can't refuse. They travel northward through Scotland, and by the time they arrive at their private cottage in the Hebrides, she has become Mrs.
Davies, or more accurately, Lady Aurand. Alek Davies, Lord Aurand, had no intention of marrying. He was content with his role as one of the biggest flirts in London society. But when he flirted with the wrong lady and wound up cursed, his plans changed. Now, if he ever wants to be fully human again-and avoid spending eternity in Faerie-all his hopes depend on his new wife. The question is, can Nora do what Pandora and Bluebeard's wife failed to do? Can she keep from looking at what is forbidden? Enjoy this YA retelling of "East of the Sun, West of the Moon, " set in a magical Regency England perfect for fans of Disney who want Pride and Prejudice hand flex vibes.
