Alchemy of the Heart (The Cursed Kings Fairy Tales, Band 2) - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

He has claws, fangs, and three weeks to live. Somehow, he’s still not the monster in this story.

I was supposed to marry Alric, a wealthy merchant prince who promised to fund my alchemy. Then I discovered what he really wanted: my formulas, my obedience, and the right to call both his.

So I ran.

King Leopold finds me injured in the cursed woods and carries me to a frozen castle no one dares approach. He should terrify me. Instead, the beast gives me something no man ever has—freedom. A library filled with forgotten knowledge. A laboratory of my own. The chance to decide what my life will become.

Then I learn his curse is killing him.

Leopold’s life is bound to the enchanted roses dying in his garden. When the last one falls, he dies with it. Twelve alchemists have already failed to save him, but surrender has never been one of my strengths.

The cure I’m developing could break his curse, or transfer it to me. And while I race to finish it, Alric is marching towards the castle with an army, determined to reclaim his runaway bride.

To save the beast, I may have to risk becoming one.

But I already know the truth: monsters aren’t always the ones with claws.

A Beauty and the Beast retelling about a woman fighting for her freedom, a cursed king who refuses to take it from her, and the dangerous things we choose for love.
