Book 1 of the Woodcutter Sisters series
308 pages · First published 2012
Sunday Woodcutter is the seventh daughter of a seventh daughter, part of a family where fairy-tale magic has a habit of becoming literal. She befriends an enchanted frog in the woods and tells him stories, unaware that he is actually Prince Rumbold, a man whose history with her family is far more complicated than either initially understands. When the enchantment breaks, Rumbold must find a way to win Sunday without revealing everything that could turn her against him. Alethea Kontis blends elements from numerous familiar fairy tales into a playful romantic fantasy about stories, family curses, and the unpredictable consequences of naming what you wish for.
