About The Book
On the eve of Prince Idris's eighteenth birthday, a grand ball is held for him to meet his intended, Princess Catharine. But for her ailing step-sister Kit, it is a night to hide in the shadows and avoid the unwanted attentions of her step-father, the king. Everything changes when Kit lays eyes on Idris, who somehow sees through her guarded facade to the secret she carries.
Idris, however, hides a dark truth of his own. His family once wronged the fae queen and he has agreed to atone for their crime, even though it means dancing to his death. But he isn't the only one making dangerous deals with the fae. Kit's mother has a plan to save her daughter – by switching Kit's body with Catharine's.

'A beautiful retelling of a lesser known fairy tale about what it costs to break a curse—and who should bear that cost.

Joanna Ruth Meyer, author of While the Dark Remains
'Brimming with magic and fairytale-like wonder, All the Queens' Curses is a tender portrayal of disability, sisterhood, and healing ... the story was handled with thoughtfulness and discernment that truly shone through every page.
