Blurb:
A Dark, Fairy Tale Retelling Romance.
How much evil can you cook up in one small town?
When your father gets wonky, marries a weird woman, and runs
off to Europe, leaving you and your twin holding the bag for the bills, what
else can you do but - Sleep a night in the forest,
Follow a trail of pebbles to a strange mansion,
And succumb to the attraction of cinnamon rolls, the world's
most beautiful piano, and Madame, the strange woman who gives you your dreams
for next to nothing.
But fairy tales teach one lesson - --when things are too good
to be true - run!
Hans Meyer finds that out the hard way, when he wakes up tied
to a bed in the dark. Even Rune, the cute guy who buys him root beer floats,
isn't who he seems.
Can piano power, twin power, and a healthy dose of love power
overcome the darkness and finally make Hans happy in Ever After?
HOLDING HANS is a coming-of-age, hidden identity,
dysfunctional family, fairy-tale-retelling, contemporary fantasy romance - with
really good food
My
review:
Holding Hans
is a complex coming of age tale filled with love and danger. Hans Meyer is a piano prodigy that has
been putting his wishes and talents on hold to take care of a dying mother and
distracted father. He thinks he might be gay but hasn’t had the opportunity to
confirm. Rune has his secrets but cannot hide his enchantment with Hans. Greta
is Hans’ twin and a gifted chemist. These are the main characters in this
wonderfully twisted retelling of Hansel & Gretel. Though this is a part of
a series it stands well on its own. I truly enjoyed this story.
