Every girl in the kingdom must go. I’m not special. But that doesn’t make it any easier to leave behind my childhood sweetheart and my home in the borderlands. And now my mother has ordered me to smuggle in a sword for protection, I’m worried she knows something I don’t. It’s only a few days. Just a short break in the richest city in the world. It can’t be that bad, can it? If I keep my head down and my mouth shut, I can fade into the background until it’s over. But I’ve never been great at keeping my opinions to myself. And when the prince turns out to be the spoilt brat I predicted, I refuse to simper and smile for him like the other girls. He’s playing us. We’re pawns in his game. Well, I’m sick of his sport. If he thinks he can distract me from what’s really going on at the palace, he’s wrong. Something sinister lurks in these hallways. A darkness they’re all trying to hide. But I will find it. My dignity, my freedom, and my life depend on it. I’m going to need that sword. Pleasing the Prince is the first novel in the Cursed Creatures series. It features a strong woman and the men who will come to love her – the group builds throughout the trilogy. Strong language, adult situations, potentially triggering violence, and a cliff-hanger are included. But don’t worry. The second book is coming soon! Possible Triggers: Discussions of rape, assault, and domestic violence, minor bullying, violence. less
