Beastly Dreams: A Cozy Fantasy Fairy Tale Retelling

By Gabrielle Landi

Book Overview

A grumpy tavern owner, his sunshine barmaid, and the curse that traps them together.

Running his grandfather's tavern is all Roan ever wanted-though the failing budget wasn't part of the dream. But when a rogue sorcerer curses him, sending everyone into a magical sleep except Roan, his too-cheerful barmaid, and his loyal dog, his priorities shift fast: break the curse before he loses everything.

Abigail has never felt safer than she does at the Lucky Goat, despite how miserable Roan is at times, and she'll do anything to keep her found home intact. At first, an opportunity to tackle the never ending to-do list without distraction seems almost like a blessing, but the pressure of hiding her own magic-and pretending she isn't falling for her grumpy boss-is a whole different kind of trouble.

Trapped together in the tavern, Roan and Abigail begin to discover that opposites attract...but when the magic unravels, will breaking the curse also break the spark between them?
