A Beautiful Hope

 Can one find hope after losing everything?
 HOPE EVER AFTER   Book Seven

Honor Payne wants nothing more than to feel happy again. After losing her family, business, and even her home, she moves to Twilight Kingdom in desperate search of a happiness potion. But the alchemist’s work comes at a steep price, and Honor works day and night in the hopes of affording a potion, convinced that it is the one thing to bring her happiness back.

That is… until she meets Ace Stark, the queen’s brother and a wise leader, who seems to quite literally bump into her at every turn. When Ace offers her work at a local orphanage for a handsome sum, she can’t refuse. After all, the money will help her pay for the potion she deeply desires. But working alongside Ace begins to show her that maybe… she was looking for happiness in the wrong places. When disaster strikes the kingdom, and it seems that Honor has lost everything again, will she sacrifice her dreams of getting a potion for something–or someone–more valuable?

“A Beautiful Hope,” a retelling of the Ugly Duckling, is a standalone novella, complete with tropes like grumpy/sunshine, he falls first, and star-crossed lovers.
