Steel and Stone: The Curse of the Stone Keep (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781736804230)

A princess with a secret and a cursed kingdom to save.

A deadly sickness has ravaged Princess Aurora's kingdom, killing her parents and leaving the land cursed. To save her people, she must journey to the perilous Netherworld and beseech aid from Prince Hades, sinister ruler of the Realm of Death. No one has ever escaped his shadowy domain.

Trapped on Hades' island, Aurora must outwit the dangerous prince to lift the curse.

But the greatest risk she faces isn't entrapment-it's losing her heart to Death himself.

A broken prince striving to risk it all in the name of true love.

When Aurora broke Prince Phillip's heart, he vowed never to set foot in her kingdom. But Phillip's return is vital as the threat of war arises in the Kingdom of Stonewall.

Upon his arrival, chaos ensues. A dark god has kidnapped Aurora and whisked her away to the Netherworld. Phillip will need his Captain's help, as they plunge into the Realm of Death on a journey riddled with dangers-the worst of which is facing Prince Hades, fearsome ruler of the Netherworld.

Will Phillip's valiant heart be enough to win Aurora back from the clutches of Death?

What readers are saying about Ash and Snow, Book 1 in the Cursed Kingdoms series:

"I loved this book! I'm so sad it's over. A gripping tale from the start, this was a fantastic twist on Snow White. You'll find lots of daring adventure, friendship, and romance. There's even some overlap and mention of familiar characters from other fairytales! Luckily this is the first book in the series and more will come!"

Bookbub Reviewer

"This was a true roller-coaster ride of emotions for me. One minute your down then you're up. It has drama, intrigue, sexual tension, and some giggles and even though it does have a HEA, it's bittersweet.

Bookbub Reviewer
