Michael and Ella thought life would be perfect after they married. True love, right? However, mixing a dutiful crown prince and a servant girl isn’t a recipe for bliss. Add a too-friendly guard, a dash of jealousy, and a mysterious, abandoned castle, and you have a recipe for disaster.  

When Michael accidentally wakes his childhood sweetheart from her enchanted slumber, he’s confronted with her declaration that it’s true love. The obvious solution? Divorce his wife so they can be together. Now, he faces the choice of his life: does he stick with an imperfect marriage or cut his losses for the sake of “true love”? 

When happily ever after isn’t a fairytale, is it worth fighting for? 

In this reimagining of Cinderella and Sleeping Beauty, a young couple’s beliefs about love are put to the test as they discover the truth behind true love. It is the first book in The Roumaterra Chronicles, a series of interconnected, standalone fairytale retellings perfect for readers of Brittany Fichter and Annette K. Larsen.

As the sole heir to the Ralnoran throne, Prince Axel is expected to behave like a prince, but he prefers to be at the local theater, working with his mysterious voice tutor. He knows it’s impossible given his position, but his dream is to join the cast and sing on the stage.

Oldest daughter of the village’s miller, Katy spends her days spinning wool into fine yarn. She needs to accept the advances of her tanner friend, but she can’t shake the memories of the young noble who used to buy flour when he was in the area, even though she can’t remember his name and it’s been years since she last saw him.

When her father makes an ill-advised drunken comment that gets back to the king, Katy is dragged to the capital and given an impossible task. If she succeeds, she marries the prince; if she fails, her family loses everything.

Can Katy put the good of the kingdom above her family? Or will she let her heart lead…and hope for a miracle?

Five years after the fire at the theater and Katy and Axel’s wedding, pressure is building because of their childless state. Katy’s feelings are mixed: the kingdom needs an heir, but the gold-spinning stranger can’t take a child she doesn’t have. 

While Axel longs for the stage, he can’t ignore the fact that his kingdom needs him, little as he feels qualified. He tries to shield Katy from the trouble brewing in the council, but more accidents at the theater, a curse no one remembers until it breaks, and physical danger mix with the secret she is hiding. 

Can Katy find a way to save their child? Or will the troubles in the kingdom pull her and her husband down with them?

Spirits and Pacts is part two of a clean, no-spice retelling of Rumpelstiltskin and The Phantom of the Opera. It is the third book in The Roumaterra Chronicles, a series of interconnected, standalone fairy tale retellings perfect for readers of Brittany Fichter and Annette K. Larsen.

As the possessor of her family’s handkerchief, Princess Daphne should be uncovering the truth behind her father’s murder. But she lacks confidence as a spy, and her mother is sending her off to a neighboring kingdom to look for a husband. It means months lost from her mission, but at least her faithful dog and best friend will be with her. 

Raoul has been Daphne’s best friend since they were children. But she always laughs off his attempts to confess deeper feelings, and now his father has given him an ultimatum. She’s always been out of his reach, but if Raoul can’t change her mind in the next six months, he’ll lose what little chance he had. 

When a kitchen maid catches Daphne alone, she steals the handkerchief and uses it to swap their appearances. The only way to undo it is for Daphne to tell someone who she is, but the curse prevents Daphne from both speaking and writing.

Will Daphne find a way to free herself from the curse? Or will the maid win, leaving Daphne a mute shepherdess forever?
