"And as you sleep the cold reluctance of your virgin heart shall spread to those who surround you, until ice is formed over every growing thing, encasing it in its ruthless grasp; an ice that cannot be broken, but shall only melt with the bestowal of true love's first kiss."And with that Noelle waved her wand carved from the horn of a unicorn over the head of Princess Elise. As she did so, all of the fairies vanished, and the hall was once more plunged into darkness."From L. M. Roth, the author of Abelard and the Dragon's Vapor and the Quest For the Kingdom series comes a romantic fairy tale bubbling with humor and sweetness. In the Kingdom of Columba all of the eligible maidens have been assembled for a contest. The prize? The hand of Thomas, the unmarried Prince whom all of the maidens long to wed. All that is, but one; Elise, the fairest of them all. But when a fairy curses her on their wedding day a royal dilemma presents itself; how do you wake a woman who doesn't love you with true love's first kiss? Prince Thomas sets forth on a desperate quest to the four corners of the kingdom to seek counsel from the Wise Women to find a way to win her heart and break the curse.
