The Bone Spindle [Paperback]

NATIONAL BESTSELLER • Sleeping Beauty meets Indiana Jones in this thrilling gender-swapping fairytale retelling, where two kickass heroines are ready to save a cursed prince and his kingdom with true love’s kiss.

“An enchanting read for fans of fairy-tale romance and girls with battle axes.”—Kirkus Reviews

“This gender-flipped retelling effortlessly melds romance, adventure, and fantasy. Highly recommended.”—School Library Journal, starred review

Some curses are meant to be broken.

Fi is a bookish treasure hunter with a knack for ruins and riddles who definitely doesn’t believe in true love.

Shane is a tough-as-dirt warrior who likes cracking skulls, pretty girls, and doing things her own way.

Briar Rose is a prince under a sleeping curse who’s been waiting a hundred years for the kiss that will wake him.

Cursed princes are nothing but ancient history to Fi—until she pricks her finger on a bone spindle while exploring a long-lost ruin. Now she’s stuck with the spirit of Briar Rose until she and Shane can break the century-old curse on his kingdom.

Dark magic, Witch Hunters, and bad exes all stand in her way—not to mention a mysterious Witch who might wind up stealing Shane’s heart along with whatever else she’s after. But nothing scares Fi more than the possibility of falling in love with Briar Rose.A POPSUGAR AND BUSTLE MOST ANTICIPATED TITLE OF THE YEAR
