Unbound

For fans of Hannah Whitten and Rebecca Ross, Unbound is a gender-bent reimagining of the classic tale of a monstrous beast and the beauty determined to tame it, set against the lush backdrop of Irish mythology and folklore.
Rozlyn Ó Conchúir is used to waiting-waiting for the king, her father, to relent and allow her to leave the solitude of her tower; waiting for the dreaded and mysterious Beast of Connacht to at last be defeated; waiting for the arrival of the man destined to win her heart and break the terrible curse placed on her and her land. So when she meets Jamie-a charming and compelling suitor-she allows herself to hope that her days of solitude and patience are over at long last.
But as she finds her trust betrayed-and newer, more sinister threats arising-Rozlyn learns that some curses are better left unbroken ...
