The Kiss of Deception

Hello from the other side... ♬

  Once upon a time a seventeen-year-old princess, on the eve of getting married with a prince...
Everything it was prepared for that huge event. Even though, that wouldn't be just a ordinary wedding, in fact, it would be the alliance between  two neighboring kingdoms: Morrigan and Dalbrek.

  Maybe you're thinking: "Ok, as lots of fairy tales, they got married and had their happy ever after..."


  It could be, if it wasn't for a person...

  "The witch?" You might ask. 

  But NO. The person who is going to break the rules it's not a witch, or something similar. The only one responsable for that incredible adventure is LIA, the Morrigan's First Daughter Princess!!!

 She runs away in the morning of her mariage, and take a place in a village, where she will figure out that almost nothing is what seems to be...

Being honest with you, I was took by surprise during the plot, and I really enjoyed it. 
Now, I can't wait to read the following one The Heart of Betrayal and the last one The Beauty of Darkness. I NEED to know what is coming!

 Have a nice reading.    :D
