Publisher's Synopsis
Cursed Ever After is a dazzling romantic fantasy debut brimming with snark, humor, and banter-filled romance perfect for fans of The Princess Bride and Once Upon a Broken Heart.
Love is not for cursed girls. Risa is better off without it. Risa Porto is a Bad Thing born on a Bad Day and cursed with Bad Luck. After years of taking the blame for every calamity, mishap, and minor inconvenience that befalls the townspeople of Barrow, she longs for escape. And on her seventeenth birthday, her wish is granted. Sort of. Risa owes a (very annoying) witch a favor, and it comes in the form of a quest: escort Prince Javi--the youngest, handsomest, and least significant prince-- through the dark (and deadly) Bosque to his wedding. This measly errand quickly spirals into a struggle against greedy assassins, a murderous cult, a vicious tyrant - and Risa's own curse. Most unfortunate of all... She is not immune to Javi's charms and has a highly irritating urge to kiss the prince. Though, surviving the darkest corners of the Bosque is only the beginning. If Risa is to hold up her end of a witch's bargain, she'll need a lot more than luck on her side to untangle the web of lies threatening the kingdom. Is Risa willing to pay the price of happily ever after? What if the only person she's meant to save is herself? Don't miss this action-packed, Latinx subverted fairytale!
