What to expect
It's difficult to find a husband in Regency England when you're a young lady with only half a soul.
Ever since a faerie cursed her, Theodora Ettings has had no sense of fear, embarrassment, or even happiness - a condition which makes her sadly prone to accidental scandal. Dora's only goal for the London Season this year is to stay quiet and avoid upsetting her cousin's chances at a husband. But when the Lord Sorcier of England learns of her condition, she finds herself drawn ever more deeply into the tumultuous concerns of magicians and faeries.
Bridgerton meets Howl's Moving Castle in this enchanting historical fantasy romance, where the only thing more meddlesome than faeries is a marriage-minded mother.
Praise for Olivia Atwater:
'I've read these books more times than I can count. Atwater's stubborn, quietly radical characters defy the expectations of both society and fairy tales as they blaze new paths towards love and decency. Smart and subversive, these charming romances will ignite your heart-and your hope' Shelley Parker-Chan, author of She Who Became the Sun
'Whimsical, witty, and brimming over with charm. . . Dora and the Lord Sorcier have a place amongst my favourite fantasy romance couples ever' India Holton, author of The Wisteria Society of Lady Scoundrels
This audiobook includes a bonus short story

India Holton, author of THE WISTERIA SOCIETY OF LADY SCOUNDRELS -
Half a Soul is exactly the comfort read we all need. This winsome, whimsical fantasy romance has much to say about privilege, justice, and the power of empathy, even as it sweeps you off your feet in the swooniest way possible
Megan Bannen, author of THE UNDERTAKING OF HART AND MERCY -
A delightful, romantic romp that also deftly examines class and privilege, Half a Soul is the definition of a comfort read
Hannah Whitten -
Half a Soul is the perfect balm for these bad times. It’s whimsical but never frivolous, sweet but not sugary, deeply kind rather than merely nice. I loved it
