When Princess Arabella was born, she was gifted with the curse of beauty. Sheltered from the outside world, and reduced to nothing but her enchanting appearance, Ara grew up smart, restless, outspoken, and spirited.
However, when her baby sister is born and given a terrible curse of her own, Ara decides to run away to undo the spell. She bargains a sarcastic, mysterious, (and yes, terribly attractive) stable boy into being her guide, and the two set off to find the Fae to break the curse, all the while on the run from the castle guards, bounty hunters, and a Prince who is madly in love with her. 
Throughout their extraordinary magical adventure, Ara finds herself slowly falling for this handsome stranger, but is he only in it for the deal? Or worse, her looks? 

A thrilling, hilarious, magically romantic tale about love, acceptance, society, beauty, and justice.

In the kingdom of Scintilly where love is bound by tradition and expectation, a young thief roams through the streets, snatching whatever he can, to provide for his siblings. At the same time, a Prince leads a life of privilege and duty. Yet, his life is upended when he is suddenly forced into an unwanted engagement with the neighboring kingdom's Princess. To find tranquility and clear his mind from the loathsome predicament, the Prince chooses to go on a walk into Spittle Town. A bustling village in which, in the midst of his peaceful stroll, he catches a glimpse of a mysterious hooded smuggler, swiping a loaf of bread from a market stall. When two souls from separate societies meet and embark on a journey of self-discovery and secrecy, will their close friendship be able to forge a path to a love that transcends class and convention, or will their stolen moments remain lost in the shadows forever? • | | | | | | | | | | | • I have yet to decide if this story will contain smut but I am certain that there will be fluff. My take on the classic prince-falls-for-commoner trope. It is my first story so I'll try my best to follow through with writing and updating. 🤗

Cole Glassad couldn't care less about the upcoming palace ball meant to find a wife for the prince. Her life is down in the dangerous Sparkstone mines, slaving away for a few coins that her stepmother and stepsister promptly steal. With life a living hell, she has barely enough energy to care for the injured animals she tends in secret, much less a party for the royal family that cares so little for her and the people like her. It isn't until a mysterious man appears out of the shadows, claiming to be one of the long-lost faeries and offering her a chance at freedom, that she begins to see hope. In exchange for enough money to free herself from her family, the faerie asks only for one thing in return-- that Cole attends the ball in order to get close enough to the prince to assassinate him and bring an end to the corrupted royal line. With her mission clear, Cole enters the world of the palace to learn about the prince and find a way into his ball. But dark secrets, violent plots, a strange sense that perhaps the prince isn't as bad as the faerie makes him seem, and a life-changing discovery about her past, all conspire to make Cole's shot at freedom messy and difficult. She must find the strength to get close to the prince, or else the mysterious faerie will send her back to the mines and her dreadful family. Once the clock strikes midnight... she must fulfill her end of the bargain. Once the clock strikes midnight... her hands must be red with the prince's blood.

Niccola is a demi-queen undercover in enemy territory. Her little sister went missing seven moons ago, but one lead remains: a picture of a woman's face, drawn by a diviner shortly after the disappearance. Tracking her down has led Niccola to Calis, the realm next door whose border with her own remains closed for a reason. There, the trail goes cold. Until, that is, Niccola runs into a man in the marketplace who bears a family resemblance to the woman she seeks. His name is Isaiah, crown prince of Calis, and he's investigating disappearances, too. They join forces, faking courtship to sneak Niccola into the palace and get Isaiah's wedding-minded mother off his back. It doesn't take long to suspect that a common threat might underpin both their realms' problems. And as Niccola begins to develop real feelings for Isaiah, she's faced with an impossible choice: reveal her secrets and risk breaking his trust, or leave him in order to chase down the woman who stole her sister... a woman whose forbidden magic comes with a cost that could bring both realms to ruin. ❖❖❖ Complete and fully edited.

Many years ago a slighted fairy placed a curse on a beautiful young princess--a curse that caused her and all her female descendants to turn into mean, ugly witches if they ever touched a flower after turning sixteen. Now, Princess Emma, who is about to turn sixteen herself, is determined to break the spell once and for all. Emma travels back in time to the day the curse was placed on her ancestor in the hope of preventing the curse from being cast. Unfortunately she isn't successful in her efforts, but she does learn how to break it. Armed with this knowledge, Emma returns to her own time full of hope. But disaster ensues and Emma is about to give up completely--until true love shows itself in the most unexpected place of all. I'VE ONLY READ 4 BOOKS SO FAR AND THIS IS MY FAV, PROBABLY BECAUSE OF THE TIME TRAVELLING!!
