Shadow King: Book One: Jinxed

By Shauna Houser

In Gabby's world, faerie tales are normal.
It's the Happy Ending that always seems to elude her...

In Pine Valley, Gabriella Quinn stands apart from her peers. Preternaturally changed by her encounter with the strange man who'd claimed her mother's life, she longs for the day when she can leave the town and her tormentors behind.
Her dream takes an unexpected turn when her younger sister Michaela is lured away, and Gabby once again finds herself face-to-face with the Shadow King. Determined to save her sister from their mother's fate, she offers to trade places.
Now trapped by her own promise in a hidden world, she is forced to confront old fears as time-and her chance to escape-tick away. And when the Shadow King's ancient enemy appears and threatens her family, the stakes become urgent. But how to convince the stubborn king to send her home when he's convinced she's the reincarnation of a soulmate he's waited centuries to find?

In the first book of this retelling of Beauty and the Beast, our heroine discovers that confronting fears is the only way to overcome them, friendship is forged in the unlikeliest of characters, and forgiveness and understanding are the surest ways to heal the past in order to find a happier future.
