Description
Can one find hope when everything familiar has been stripped away?
On the eve of her nineteenth birthday, Alora learns she’s not a peasant girl, the people who raised her aren’t even related to her, and she can’t marry the boy from the village who promised to return for her. She’s a princess, betrothed to a neighboring royal – and cursed since birth.
But Alora adores her simple life and flees from her newfound expectations. When the curse is enacted anyway, she must fight her way through a strange new land. If she doesn’t defeat the one who cursed her, she’ll be trapped in a dream forever.
A Gracious Hope, a retelling of Sleeping Beauty and The Wizard of Oz, is a stand-alone novella, complete with such tropes as “protective hero,” “he falls first,” and “no damsels here.” It is part of the Hope Ever After series, a collection of twenty hopeful and uplifting fairy-tale retellings. Each book is written by a different author, so it can be enjoyed in any order. The proceeds from this series are donated to the O.U.R. (Operation Underground Rescue) to rescue children from exploitation and trafficking.
*Proceeds from A Gracious Hope will be donated to O.U.R. through 2025.*
