A dazzling fairy tale about falling in love again by the New York
Times best-selling author of The Star-Touched Queen and The Gilded
Wolves.
Once upon a time, there was a king and queen in a land called Love's
Keep who once loved one another, but alas, no more. Without love, they
were doomed to be ousted from their kingdom at the end of a year and a
day.
A year and a day passed.
This is where their story starts.
Imelda and Ambrose can't remember why they got married. A year and a day
ago, Ambrose consulted a witch, trading their love to save Imelda's
life - and they've been stuck with one another ever since. When that
same witch pays them a visit on the day they lose their kingdom, she
promises to make their deepest wishes come true in exchange for a simple
favor and a short journey. With nothing left to lose, Imelda and Ambrose
agree. But, over the course of their enchanted road trip peppered with a
delirious cloak, cannibals, and at least one honey badger, something
magical happens...little by little, step by step, they regain what they
had forgotten.
They remember why they fell in love.
When the end of their journey nears and they confront parting ways
forever, a new decision faces them. Will Imelda and Ambrose choose their
deepest wishes, or will they choose each other - again?
