What if the black swan was in love with the prince? Ayane has never admitted her love for her best friend, Prince Bo, until Lady Cordelia moves into town. When Ayane starts working as Cordelia’s maid, Cordelia seems like the sister Ayane never had. But after all Ayane’s secrets are shared, Cordelia turns on her, weaving lies and twisting the truth about Ayane to the rest of the kingdom. Now shunned and rejected, Ayane is sick of Cordelia’s cruel treatment. As a royal ball arises–one in which Prince Bo must choose a bride–Ayane discovers one of Cordelia’s secrets, one that could turn the tables in Ayane’s favor. Ayane has never been the unkind one, but the sweet taste of revenge is too tempting to resist. When Ayane’s revenge goes awry, she must make a choice or others will suffer the consequences. Can Ayane make things right before it’s too late? “To Curse a Black Swan” is part of The Shattered Tales, a collection of twelve fractured retellings of your favorite fairy tales. They can be enjoyed in any order, so fall in love with the sweet romance, magical adventures, and tale-shattering twists one happily-ever-after at a time
