The Cursed Princess: Book 1 of the Eumetadotos Series - Paperback

by Chrissy White (Author)

She was cursed at nine. He was the only one who could save her. And from that moment, nothing in the kingdom of Eumetadotos would ever be the same.
When Princess Arianna falls gravely ill as a child, it is Ellavorn - an elf - who heals her. In that fragile moment, an unspoken bond is forged between them, one that will shape the destiny of an entire kingdom.
Years later, Arianna must choose a husband. She rejects suitor after suitor - until Ellavorn himself steps forward. But before their future can begin, tragedy strikes. Her parents are murdered. Her heart is shattered. And the young princess, drowning in grief, breaks off her engagement and swears to rule alone.
She has no idea what storms are coming.
With hidden family secrets threatening to unravel everything, a kingdom on the brink, and enemies lurking in the shadows, Arianna must rely on those closest to her - her fierce handmaiden Abigail, the steadfast Captain of the Guard Joshua, a loyal kitchen boy named Charlie, and allies among the elves - to hold her world together.
But can a grieving princess, burdened by secrets she does not yet know, save a kingdom from falling?
The Cursed Princess is the first book in the Eumetadotos Series - a sweeping young adult fantasy full of love, loss, loyalty, and the courage it takes to rule when everything falls apart. Perfect for fans of Sarah J. Maas, Tamora Pierce, and fairy-tale-inspired epic fantasy.
