Seven brothers are cursed to dance until the magic destroys them…
By day, Maegna plays the meek, forgettable ward of a viscount who will never claim her as his daughter.
By night, she's the Ghost Thief. As the masked burglar no city guard can catch, Maegna slips across rooftops to fund her escape from a family that was never quite hers.
Then her seven half-brothers vanish.
When Maegna discovers it was her father's reckless magic that cursed them to dance until they waste away to nothing, running away is no longer an option.
Desperate she turns to the last person she should trust, the charming traveling scholar who is hiding secrets of his own.
But Zane isn't a scholar at all.
He's a wolf shifter on a mission to steal a dangerous book of magic before it falls into the wrong hands. And helping Maegna was never part of the plan.
As their uneasy alliance grows into something neither expected, they uncover a conspiracy far darker than a single curse.
When the full truth comes to light, Zane must decide whether to protect his own found family or sacrifice everything for the woman who has stolen his heart.
A unique reimagining of The Twelve Dancing Princesses featuring a clever thief heroine, a protective wolf-shifter hero, slow-burn romance, found family, powerful magic, and hard-won happily-ever-after.
Perfect for readers who love clean, no spice fairy-tale fantasy romance in the vein of Melanie Cellier, K.M. Shea, Deborah Grace White, and Intisar Khanani.
Amberlyn writes epic fantasy romance and re-imagined fairy tales featuring dragon-shifters, fierce princesses, magic, and happily-ever-afters.
She grew up reading her older sister’s SFF collection and her mother’s category romances so it’s only natural her storytelling leans toward magic, romance and adventure.
Amberlyn currently lives in Northern New York where her writing schedule, and life, revolve around the whims of her dog. When not catering to a demanding terrier or getting lost in books, she enjoys crafting, watching football and hockey, and hanging out with her husband.
