Alara's Curse
~Loosely based on Sun, Moon, and Talia by Giambattista Basile, 1634~
It may start with a spindle, like all the others but it ends in battle.
Queen Alara, poisoned by magic, is made to suffer through twenty years of sleep… but is she really sleeping?
Our fair-haired maiden is made to suffer in silence as she loses her one true love, her child, and twenty years of her life. While the world believes her to be lost forever, Alara suffers through the loss of her child, the marriage of her one true love to another woman, and twenty years of lost time with those around her.
A witch can be the only reason for Alara’s trouble… and she has come in the form of the new queen.
The land of Anaphias is taken hostage. All who live within are affected, but only one will stand up to the usurper queen...
Queen Alara and her unlikely heroes; a guard with no fighting ability, a woman with a cloak as red as blood and the witch-queens own son who is an identical replica of her own.
In order to take back what is hers, Alara must help those affected by the witch and find her lost prince so she may return him to where he belongs… the throne.
Sometimes being strong means knowing when to ask for help.

This book was amazing. The story was so engaging your heart aches for Alara and the torture she is forced to endure, listening to everything that is happening around you but unable to act or change what happens. SL Perrine has another best seller on her hands with this one!
