Cécile is a farm girl that dreams of being a singer. On her way to visit her mother in the city on her seventeenth birthday, she is kidnapped by Luc, a greedy a-hole that is asked to find a girl that fits her description for a compensation of her weight in gold. He drags her to Trollus (the land of trolls) and gives her to the crown prince Tristan that is supposed to marry her in order to free Trollus from a curse made by a witch, a curse that made the troll world rest permanently in a cave under a mountain. It failed miserably. Now, Cécile is stuck in their miserable world. She has to find a way out.
Hmmm… when the book first mentioned trolls, I thought about this:
Yeah. Turns out, some of them are actually quite hot like our main character's love interest Tristan( which I really didn't connect to by the way). He was always so distant and pretending to be a jerk that I don't really like him that much.

I thought this book was a little weird because in the end because Cécile actually managed to get out of Trollus... Which begs the question why didn't she do it before? Why did she wait for so long to have enough time to fall in love and add all of the hullabaloo in the middle? Did I also mention how jealous Cécile was when a troll lied to her and said that Tristan was cheating on her so she decided to pick the lock of the Labyrinth and run away and meet a giant Sluag that nearly KILLED Tristan because he wanted to save her? I don't know guys. Either the story doesn't make sense or Cécile might actually be quite shallow. But you might have to read it yourself because I'm the black sheep in the herd right now.
I will not be reading the sequel because I just didn't like this book as much as I wanted to.
