Lady — Candace Blevins

Even the Dark Queen can't change destiny.

Tabitha has so much to learn about living with a family, and she makes her grandfather and cousins terribly uncomfortable when she doesn't fit in. She was punished for looking free people in the eyes all her life, so it's understandable she has trouble learning to maintain eye contact. And making decisions is impossible -- from what she wants for breakfast, to when she's tired enough for bed, and everything in between.

Her grandfather's horses don't judge, and working with them finally helps her begin to find a path towards figuring out this new life, where clothes must be worn all day, every day.

Just when she's resigned herself to this life and is certain she'll never enjoy sex again, an invitation arrives to attend one of the Winter Queen's balls -- along with a fancy gown that raises more questions than answers.



Lady is book two in the Dark(ish) Faerie Tale quadrilogy, and should be read in the correct order.
