Publisher Description
Beauty Giordano can duplicate precious stones, a skill too closely linked to the dangerous, secretive fey for her family's comfort. But when she must use her double alchemy to save her family from financial ruin, she accidentally draws the attention of an indignant stranger from the forest and finds herself in a strange castle, where a cursed fey prince hides in the shadows.
Discovering the necklace she stole is the key to breaking the castle's curse, Beauty strikes a bargain with Prince Armand du Soir which allows them both to benefit from her double alchemy. Despite their initial prickly encounter, the human woman and fey man see through one another's defenses in a way no one else has. Both quickly grow to understand and care for the wounds hidden beneath each other's resistance and pride, and their attraction becomes undeniable.
As the curse continues to weaken, Beauty and Armand must choose between their responsibilities and their growing love. But other forces at play won't let them find a happily ever after so easily, and Beauty's choices produce consequences she can't escape.
Magic brought them together. Will it tear them apart?
Customer Reviews
Enchanting, bold, and full of classic fairytale delights!
I just finished my reviewer copy of Double Alchemy, and can't wait to see what's next from Stephanie Ascough because WOW! The charming detail and enchanting setting comes off from the very first page, with French inspiration and nods to herbalism and the magical qualities of plants, I'm in love...
Beauty is clever and bold, never for a moment shying away from her duty to herself and her family for the sake of being demure. If you love a story that takes you to a faraway place and lets you bring the magic to your own world as you turn that final page, this book needs to go at the tippy top of your TBR stack.
