Penelope and Prince Charming: A Historical Romantic Fantasy (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781966401339)

What do you do when a handsome prince from a far-off land sweeps into your small village and declares you must marry him?

Penelope Trask believes nothing exciting will ever happen in her corner of rural Oxfordshire. Handsome princes only carry away beautiful maidens in fairy tales, never in real life.

Prince Damien of Nvengaria is tired of living inside a fairy tale. His entire life has been ruled by prophecy, magic, and avoiding being assassinated by his mad father and the head of the Council of Dukes. When his father dies, he inherits a kingdom divided, his opposition led by Grand Duke Alexander, who will do anything to keep the monster's son from ruling Nvengaria.

To claim his throne, Damien must fulfill a prophecy that will save the kingdom carved out of wild lands near the Transylvanian mountains. Damien's task-to bring back the Princess of Nvengaria, her line lost centuries ago. The price of disappointing the people will be Damien's execution.

Damien tracks down the long-lost princess to the village of Little Marching in England, where nothing remotely interesting ever happens. He will have to convince the lovely Penelope into this marriage of convenience, because Damien's life and his kingdom depends upon her.

Along the way, the prophecy says, they will fall in love. And the prophecy is never wrong ...
