The Caring and the Cursed: Puss in Boots and Snow White & Rose Red Retelling
A cursed prince. A miller's daughter who is willing to do anything to save her family. Are they the only hope to save their kingdom?
When Crown Prince Alexander is cursed into the form of a cat, he fears all is lost. Little does he know that when he stumbles upon two sisters he has found his sweetest and bravest companions.
Eirwen loves her family deeply and is willing to enter into a loveless and miserable marriage for their sake. Neither she nor her younger sister, Rowan, will inherit the mill so this is how she can do her part.
When a talking cat scares them both, Eirwen is afraid that evil has come to destroy her family. But is he really an evil cat, or is it possible there's more to meet the eye with this new furry friend? And is he someone she could have a future with and not be miserable?
Can these two sisters aid the talking cat in facing off against the evil that is plaguing their country, or are they all doomed for more curses?

Reviews and Comments
I really enjoyed this story and how it combined elements of Snow White & Rose Red with the story of Puss in Boots. This book had several great characters and I loved getting to know Rowan & her sister Eirwen as well as Prince Alexander / James / Puss. It was fun seeing how Eirwen and him interacted throughout the story as they grew closer. This book is a standalone but I liked how it was vaguely mentioned in passing as town gossip in Amphibians and Admiration: A Frog Prince Retelling tying the two stories together as part of the same world. I look forward to reading more fairy tale retellings by this author in the future.
