She holds a love of fairy tales from her late mother and thinks any situation can have a good ending since stories have infinite endings. Evangeline wants what’s best for both her and the people around her. Their personalities clash so satisfyingly, especially with Evangeline being human and Jacks being a god. Garber makes it obvious that the two are enemies, but she gives us enough information in the first book to lead us to believe that they have the chance to grow into something much more. Jacks and Evangeline, of course, do not start off on a good note, especially with him turning her remaining family and her first love into statues. Though after the first kiss, Evangeline starts discovering secrets of the world that she thought she knew and begins to realize she might be much more than she thought.
In return for stopping the wedding, Evangeline must kiss three people of Jack’s choosing, whenever and whoever he wants. Not the best Fate to have, huh? Evangeline makes a deal with Jacks to stop the wedding between her stepsister and the love of her life, Luc. The only problem is that whoever he kisses, dies. The only way to make it beat again is if he kisses his one true love.
His heart doesn’t beat due to the heartbreak that he is said to have experienced. What makes Jacks, or the Prince of Hearts, such a well-known Fate is both his kiss and heart. Afterwards, she’s thrown into an adventure of love, lore, and of course, heartbreak. The story features Evangeline Fox, who makes a deal with Jacks, a Fate (aka a god in the Caraval universe). Written by Stephanie Garber, Once Upon a Broken Heart is a spin-off of her previous book series, Caraval, which takes place in the same universe. I stumbled upon this book out of curiosity after checking it out for “Date a Book,” February’s theme in the library. Once Upon a Broken Heart, along with its sequel, The Ballad of Never After, can be found in the fantasy fiction section of the library at Dover High. įor anyone who hasn’t read these books, this will contain spoilers, so watch out! If you want to find a series that may just spark that love of books again, there is one series that was able to do it for me: Once Upon a Broken Heart. Nevertheless, books have at one point been a source of happiness for a lot of us. Many of us may not have grown out of those phases. Some of these may include Warrior Cats, Harry Potter, or Diary of a Wimpy Kid even. As much as we hate to admit it, most of us had a phase related to a book series.
