A man without a crown could still be a prince. But what about a monster?Adalwin has always been a prince. Born into royalty as the heir to the throne of Hallin, he was raised to rule a kingdom. Only, the one he receives is not the one he expected. Cruelly cursed and presumed dead by all who once knew him, his kingdom is now made up of a murky glen where water-splashers dwell and crooked linden trees block the light. Sitting on a throne built from bracken and moss, his only subjects are those creatures that won't run in terror at first glance. After all, who could swear fealty to a monster? Only the bravest cross the borders into the Frog Prince's kingdom, drawn by whispered rumors of a boon should you meet his price. An opportunity for him to show the man underneath the monster—a chance to break the curse's shackles and return home. When a beautiful, kind-hearted man with hair blessed by the sun itself stumbles into his lair looking to make a deal, more than just Adalwin's interest is stirred. Maybe his lonely heart is too. But when the man tries to break the deal, the Frog Prince must come to collect. Contains mature themes.Voir livre
