Liesl is determined to find the man who broke her heart. Getting stuck in a magical valley with an ogre isn’t part of the plan.

Liesl shouldn’t let the rose that Tobias gave her mean anything; she knows he isn’t willing to pursue her. But the discovery that he left his beloved cat behind when he disappeared drives her wounded feelings to the breaking point.
If Beast could remember his own name, maybe he would know how he came to the mountain valley. A restlessness reminds him of a task unfulfilled, but the valley’s magic won’t let him escape.

When a young woman and her cat stumble through the pass, his memories begin to stir. The more time he spends with Liesl, the more he believes that he may know where to find her Tobias – and that he may have wronged her beyond what she can forgive.

But if a confession will harm someone else, can he even ask? Or is keeping his secret worth losing the woman he loves?

Snatch up your copy of Boots and Roses and lose yourself in this clean, no-spice retelling of Puss in Boots and Beauty and the Beast. It is the sixth book in The Roumaterra Chronicles, a series of interconnected, standalone fairytale retellings perfect for readers of Brittany Fichter and Annette K. Larsen.

Erin Halbmaier

Programmer. Composer. Author of clean, no-spice fairytale retelling/romance novels.


Erin Halbmaier’s love of a good tale covers multiple genres, but the relationships are always what draw her in. As such, she strives to create complex, compelling characters and put them in tense, dramatic situations as they seek the light in the midst of whatever darkness they may be facing. In essence, her characters have flaws and may kiss, but her fantasy/romance books will never be steamy, have minimal to no swearing, and minimal to no gore.


When not writing books (or reading them), she can be found programming or hanging out with her husband, two children, and two dogs at their home in the country.
