    About this ebook

    Young woman trapped in a magic spell? It happens all the time in fairy tales; now, in this short story, author Ann Morven weaves her particular fancy around a global modern problem, the extinction of rare species.
    In this light-hearted romp, magic twists unpredictable spells, yet isn’t love itself the greatest magic?
