Juniper Fairchild and the Alterwhere (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798999337313)

Two friends enter a world of magic-only to be mistaken for the same lost princess.

Juniper Fairchild is thirty-four, terminally ill, and convinced her story is nearly over. But when a forgotten garden gate opens, she and her best friend Megan are swept into the Alterwhere-a realm spun from fairy tales, memories, and broken dreams.

The people of this world see them both as the return of a long-lost princess, and no one can agree which of them is real. As Juniper struggles with her failing body and Megan vanishes deeper into danger, the fractured Alterwhere begins to unravel around them.

To save her friend-and perhaps herself-Juniper must claim an identity that was never meant to be hers, and decide whether this strange land of misfit magic is only a detour, or her last chance to matter.

For fans of Legends & Lattes, Emily Wilde's Encyclopaedia of Faeries, and The Magicians, this heartfelt portal fantasy with magic, found family, and a female main character is a tale of mistaken identity, second chances, surprising whimsy, and the stories that refuse to die.
