Once Upon a Star

From the same authors who brought you *Once upon a Castle* comes *Once upon a Star* , a welcome addition to romance anthologies. Not only are the four tales extraordinary (linked together with the common thread of magic), each contains an element of enchantment. In Nora Roberts’s Ever After, the gift of an ancient pendant belonging to a fairy changes two lives forever. Jill Gregory’s Catch a Falling Star finds a princess forced into a political marriage with a wife-murdering barbarian, while Ruth Ryan Langan’s The Curse of Castle Clough offers a ghost who helps save a castle from the auction block and its owner from a life without love. Finally, a burned-out American tourist travels back in time to be rescued by and to rescue a handsome sailing captain in Starry, Starry Night by Marianne Willman. Sit back, put your feet up, and travel to distant times and places with four of romantic fiction’s best authors. –Alison Trinkle
