"I should have said, I'm the one who should be apologizing." Rath ran a hand through his hair. "It's too expensive a substance for healers to use on anyone but propers, and temple healers don't give murgot to the likes of me. I get lipseed oil and prayer." Tress frowned again as he stood. "You keep making it sound like you're a—a monster or something. There's nothing wrong with you, and so what if there was? You'd still deserve to be healed properly."

Le résumé m'avait accrochée... La lecture, quant à elle, n'a rien à voir.
Ça ressemble beaucoup à une réécriture d'un compte de fée à la sauce M/M. Tout est cousu de fil blanc. Aucune surprise. Aucun humour. Un héros qui se révèle un être d'une pureté intérieure sans pareille alors que son introduction dans l'histoire ne le laisse en rien le présager.
Je ne pense pas que je lirai d'autres romans de Megan Derr. Trop déçue...

Résumé
All Rath wants is a quiet, peaceful life. Unfortunately, his father brings him too much trouble—and too many debts to pay—for that to ever be possible. When the local crime lord drags Rath out of bed and tells him he has three days to pay his father's latest debt, Rath doesn't know what to do. There's no way to come up with so much money in so little time.
Then a friend poses an idea just ridiculous enough to work: enter the Tournament of Losers, where every seventy-five years, peasants compete for the chance to marry into the noble and royal houses. All competitors are given a stipend to live on for the duration of the tournament—funds enough to cover his father's debt.
All he has to do is win the first few rounds, collect his stipend, and then it's back to trying to live a quiet life...
