Ein Fluch zum Verlieben! Cursed for Good ist eine leichtherzige, kuschelig-warme Romantasy von Sunday-Times-Bestseller-Autorin Amy Coombe.Prinzessin zu sein, ist gar nicht so leicht: Die kleinen Feen im Königsgarten beißen, die schönen Kleider zwicken, und zwischen den vielen Reisen, Eröffnungszeremonien und königlichen Bällen bleibt kaum Zeit zum Lesen. Als Tandy verflucht wird, in einem Buchladen zu leben, bis sich ihr Herzenswunsch erfüllt, ist das daher wie ein wahr gewordener Traum. Endlich hat sie alle Zeit der Welt, sich ihren Büchern zu widmen – nur eine pubertierende Shopassistentin (ihre Drachenflügel stoßen ständig die Regale um) und ein bücherstehlender Pirat (er ist attraktiver, als es gut für ihn – und Tandy – ist) machen ihr das Leben schwer. Zudem sind Tandys Eltern gar nicht begeistert. Sie entsenden die sieben Prinzen der umliegenden Reiche, um Tandy zu umwerben und von ihrem Fluch zu befreien. Denn ist es nicht der Herzenswunsch einer jeden Prinzessin, ihren Prinzen zu finden? Oder doch eher einen sexy Piraten?Für alle Fans der Tropes:- Slow Burn- Haters to Lovers- Found Family
