A Word from the Author

I’ve always been fascinated by fairy tales, but I wanted to explore what happens when the story doesn’t end with True Love’s Kiss.

This series is a deep dive into the psychological and emotional aftermath of trauma, told through the lens of a world where magic and horror intertwine.

I hope you enjoy this darker take on the classics.
