      ‘This fantasy story is a wild ride, featuring a fascinating cast of characters that keep the story rolling. Ysabel is such a compelling character as she dodges corrupt leaders, warriors, and others who think they have a right to her… this story sucked me right in. A HOLY MAIDEN’S GUIDE TO GETTING KIDNAPPED by Katy Nyquist is a fast-paced romp full of intrigue, adventure, and steam!’ — Readers’ Favorite
