Princess Diaries 2 meets King Midas in this swoon-worthy forbidden romance fantasy standalone.
An heir. An Empress. A Queen.
As a former rebel leader, Clarissa Aris is no stranger to power. She's ready to reclaim the throne of the Veridian Empire and is eager to guide her people out of a past of violence and into a better future.
But when a mysterious king unexpectedly asks for her hand in marriage to restore peace between their two lands, she chooses to accept. Clarissa travels to meet him in Mysthelm, a realm they had been cut off from for centuries, and is thrust into a foreign kingdom with secrets around every corner, a betrothed she isn't sure she can trust, and brewing tension with his handsome best friend and advisor.
Clarissa's search for answers uncovers the truth behind a deadly blight sweeping Mysthelm and a centuries-old curse threatening to destroy the people she's come to care for. When she learns her magic may be the only cure, she's determined to both rescue this kingdom from danger and keep the Veridian Empire safe from meddling forces.
Time is running out. Which will fall first: the curse or the crown?
Of the Curse or the Crown is the second book in a series of interconnected dark fantasy standalones. This book includes a summary of book one, In the Wake of the Wicked, for those who have not read it. While it is advised to read book one first, it's not necessary. Of the Curse or the Crown follows a newly appointed Empress who chooses to unite with a feuding kingdom in a marriage of convenience. She finds herself thrown into a world of curses, secrets, and meddling Fates while battling feelings for her betrothed's best friend. Perfect for lovers of Princess Diaries, Greek mythology, and The Plated Prisoner series, this book is full of plot twists, lovable side characters, unique magic, witty banter, and no spice forbidden love romance.
