Curse of the Healing Kiss

3.1/5 ( ratings)

"Love is infinite. Love is not a diamond, destined for a single hand."

Inspired by French fairy tales of the 17th century, this novella brings emotional realism to a universal story of love, trust, and jealousy, in a fantasy kingdom where curses are all too real.

"Amazing and suspenseful read for lovers of fantasy, allegory and human psychology. 'Curse of the Healing Kiss' gives you enough cloaks, princes, carriage rides, dramatic declarations and curses to satisfy lovers of magic and fantasy, but unlike many centuries-old fairy tales, it is grounded in a very real psychological dialogue that the struggling lovers engage in with each other and themselves. It's also filled with breathtaking turns of phrase that echo the poetry that plays such a major role in the plot." -- Jennifer Boeder, Content Specialist & Editor

The narrative revolves around two people in love: Malvinia, a sunny, outgoing woman with a knack for opening hearts; and Modeste, a man of quieter virtues. Their relationship, however, is the story's true protagonist, as its resiliency is tested by the capacity of each to grow and to sacrifice in response to forces neither of them anticipated -- a conflict familiar to anyone who has struggled to be one's true, uncompromised self while at the same time honoring the needs of another in a loving long-term relationship.
