Good men can't love cruel women.
Lady Gisele lost everything when her father was convicted of treason. She was supposed to become a princess and have the court dance to the songs she sang and caught in the webs of gossip she spun. Now she’s the outcast of the court and all the years she’d spent and amassing that power was for nothing.
When she’s presented with the chance to get everything she ever wanted, she’ll take it—even when it’s a life-threatening undercover mission in the Esmean Empire. Even when it involves the most infuriating man she’s ever met. She’s desperate enough to risk her life, but is she desperate enough to lose her heart?
Taking his cousin’s identity to uncover a supposedly empire shattering secret didn’t sound so bad to Lord Hakim, until he ended up stuck with the most insufferable woman he’s ever met. Now, not only does he have to pretend to be married to her, but he has to keep her from realizing he’s not just her fake husband but also the lord of the estate they’re staying at.
While they chase a secret that could change the world, Hakim has to wrestle with more than one unfortunate truth along the way. Maybe Gisele isn’t what he first thought she was, and that without her, does he even stand a chance at surviving at all?
Sands of Deceit, a reimagining that combines King Thrushbeard and Bluebeard, is the sixth in the Bewitching Fairy Tales Series, a series of interconnected fairy tale retellings that are best enjoyed together.
