| Summary, Etc. |
"An overworked princess is cursed to remain in a bookshop until she discovers what her heart truly longs for, in this utterly charming and romantic cozy fantasy debut. Princess Tanadelle of the Widdenmar is disillusioned with life as a princess. She longs for real conversation, uninterrupted reading time and the chance to build a life of her own making. During a routine royal visit to the town of Little Pepperidge, Tandy's dream comes true when she finds herself cursed to remain in a run-down bookshop until she finds her heart's desire. No stranger to curses, and more than a little thrilled, she settles into life among the stacks. She soon discovers that running a bookshop is more than just whiling away the days curled up with a good book. Business is far from booming, Tandy's teenage goth assistant tries her patience, and an infuriatingly handsome pirate with a curse of his own keeps showing up and stealing her books. Despite it all, something about Tandy's new life might just make her happy, and she's determined to make it work. There are just seven minor problems. With her royal duties unfulfilled, the frantic king and queen send the seven princes of the realms to bestow upon Tandy a kiss, each one hoping to break the curse. They arrive, each more ridiculous than the last, delighted to be the manifestation of her heart's desire. After all, what more could a princess want, than a prince?"-- Provided by publisher.
