I really liked Gowan, the Duke of Kinross and also Edie, the heroine with whom Gowan fell in love at first sight.Here's one for the books - a virtuous hero - yes, readers - Gowan is a virgin. A sexy braw Scottish virgin duke. That fact alone makes this book worth a read. Edie isn't just any old heroine, she's a cello virtuoso who practices for several hours each day. When Gowan and Edie come together, there are some issues to be worked out. He's a work-a-holic and she's a music-a-holic if you will. He's accustomed to order, being obeyed and multi-tasking. She finally gets enough and begins to interfere. To Gowan's credit, he allows her some freedom to adjust his schedule.**Spoilerish*** But... when Edie can't easily accommodate his size and has ongoing pain and begins to dread the act of marriage, things begins to go awry, especially when she calls in reinforcements in the person of her step-mama, Layla and confides truths about her sexual dealings with Gowan. Oh boy - the fat is in the fire when Gowan learns Edie has faked pleasure and talked with Layla.I enjoyed this story, but I felt that parts of the storyline were a bit cut and dried so to speak. One good feature of the book is that we get a secondary romance between Edie's father and Layla as they work their marriage difficulties out over the course of the story. ### ⭐ So disappointing *by K***R on Reviewed in the United States on June 24, 2019* I have read all of the fairy tale series including the novellas and they were all wonderful except this one. The very first chapter is a lovely interplay between the heroine and her stepmother. Shortly after the first scene however the book deteriorates. There is virtually no plot, and what there is of the plot is predictable. The interplay between the heroine and her new husband (the Duke) is stilted and without humor. But the worse part of the book is the Duke himself. He is a jerk. No descriptions of his musculature, Scottish burr or anything else can disguise his complete meanness, ego and lack of charm. I finished the book only in the hope that it would get better. Do yourself a favor and don't bother. ### ⭐⭐ James is a great writer but this book has a weak plot *by J***D on Reviewed in the United States on March 17, 2014* I'm a James fan and regularly purchase her books, but this one was not in keeping with her talent. The hero and heroine, and secondary characters also, are all good. BUT, there is no plot. The story line revolves around problems in the sack and while James tries to push the psychological foundation for these issues, it just doesn't work. The inner musing of the characters becomes tedious, false and thin. One of the things I enjoy about reading romance is passionate sex in likable characters. But reading Once Upon, I felt as frustrated as the characters. Fine technical writing as usual with James, but for heaven's sake, add a story line that keeps things moving along for those of us who don't suffer from sexual dysfunctions and don't want to. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/66653960-once-upon-a-tower-fairy-tales-book-5](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/66653960-once-upon-a-tower-fairy-tales-book-5) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-05-18*
