Description

A Princess and the Pea Short Story

Can one find hope when the king wants you dead?

Princess Bretta and Prince Dario’s fathers might hate each other, but that hasn’t stopped their love from blossoming over their years of acquaintance. But when Prince Dario’s father gets wind of their romance, he invokes the tradition of the Princess Tests to choose his son’s bride.

All looks lost until Princess Bretta’s godmother shows up with a plan to keep her in the competition. Armed with only a pea as her clue, Bretta must face the most difficult test of all — one that might just turn deadly.

A Renewed Hope, a retelling of The Princess and the Pea, is a stand-alone short story, complete with such tropes as “forbidden romance,” “no spice friends to lovers,” and “royal romance.”
