An Evil Enchantress and her son, Dalbert create chaos by interrupting a Roschen Royal Family meal. Two broken statues, a swan, and six geese remain in the wreckage left behind.

To keep her safe, Crown Princess Aurora is escorted by her brother, who was spared the curse because he arrived late, to the original Sleeping Beauty Tower and lake. There, Aurora is left under the protection of Parker, a Huntsman cursed to be a dragon.

By day, Aurora and Parker are trapped in their cursed forms. Under the moonlight, they spend their limited time in human form trying to figure out how to break their respective curses. As they unravel what they need to do, they realize that a dark force is lurking in the shadows.

Dalbert finds his family plans falling apart when he can’t communicate with them. Not knowing how else to fix it, he decides to do the one thing he can: remove Crown Princess Aurora from the equation. With time running out and no other options available to him, he sets off to prevent the curse from being broken.

Will Evil win out this time? Will Good defeat Evil? Will Aurora and Parker remain a swan and a dragon for the remainder of their cursed lives, or can they find a way to break their curses in time?



The Swan Princess is a mash-up of ‘Sleeping Beauty’ and the ‘Swan Princess’ along with a few other fairy tales sprinkled into the mix. It is book eight in the Enchanted Forest series, but book one in the Roschen Chronicles Duology. It can be read separately from the rest of the series.
