Prepared to be wooed and hear me well, ye fair ladies, folks, and knaves. This contemporary Ren-Faire set romance is going to delight you while tugging at your bodice strings.

I blew up my ARC reading list schedule because Well Met by Jen DeLuca has been at the absolute top of my most anticipated 2019 romances since I saw that cover and read the words "Rom-Com at a Renaissance Fair." When it landed on my eReader I knew I had to read it right away, and it definitlely lived up to my expectations!

Told in 1st Person POV from the perspective of Emily, a twenty-something who's jerk ex-boyfriend just unceremoniously dumped her, despite the fact she dropped out out of college to work and help him get through law school. Now Emily is essentially homeless and therefore totally ready and willing to help out her much older sister, who needs assistance after having her leg shattered in a bad car accident.

One of the tasks Emily ends up with is volunteering with her teenage niece at the local Renaissance Fair, not exactly what Emily had in mind for the summer, but also not something that sounds too terrible. Especially since it seems there will be beer, jousting, and men in kilts! Too bad the fair organizer is such a grump.

As Emily becomes Emma, bar wench, every weekend, she also discovers she's so much more.

Absolutely delightful from so many aspects. The details of the fair, the cast of secondary characters, Emily's relationships with her sister, her niece, and the new friends she makes. Plus, the romance! I won't say much more because I'll let you fall for the guy-liner wearing pirate yourself!

A must read, definitely worth a pre-order!

I received a free copy in exchange for a fair review!
