Rescued by the Raven KingRetelling of Thumbelina

“I thought you find human skin weak and useless,” I breathed, as his hand slid shamelessly lower.
“You might convince me to change my mind, Belina…”

I was born of a witch’s spell and my mother’s wishes, just the size of a nutshell. My human parents love me, but I’ve never belonged in their world. Now it’s time to seek my fortune and find the little folk of the woods—but their forest is a strange and dangerous, their magic spreading wide, and all the animals here can speak.

Having studied magic all my life, I think nothing of healing an injured raven, even if he is a bit arrogant, but when I find myself kidnapped by a talking, magic-casting mole who wants to make me his bride, I’m very glad when the raven feels he must repay my favor—taking the form of a handsome man. Only now, he thinks I can’t handle myself and I need a pompous, domineering escort.

I certainly don’t.

But I do need a place I can belong. And as he shows me the way to the home of the little fair folk, I begin to wonder if the animals are their neighbors or their slaves…if they are everything I hoped for, or something more hostile…and if the man at my side is more than he seems.

Rescued by the Raven King is a standalone fairy tale retelling of Thumbelina for those who like an unabashedly adorable happily ever after with a side of serious steaminess!
