A lingering curse. A man with a secret. A princess with a plan. Fed up with meddling sorcerers, Princess Neylan journeys to a distant kingdom to break a beastly curse. Master Healer Keir, who captured her heart through his letters, is relying on her to end his nightly shift into the form of a giant dragon. Armed with a bold plan, Neylan vows that sorcery will never again touch his life, or the lives of her eleven sisters. But true love's kiss fails, leaving Keir trapped in a cycle of agonizing transformations. When an unexpected ally reveals himself and offers a risky solution, Neylan must make an irreversible choice that will either give her the knowledge she seeks, or else trap her in the same type of snare she's trying to destroy. Fantasy, romance, and adventure combine in the fairytale-inspired Firethorn Chronicles, an interconnected series of stand-alone novels drawn from The Twelve Dancing Princesses. Follow the sisters on their journeys in a land where sorcery is feared and dragons fly.
