A greedy father. A beautiful daughter. A faceless noble. With a word, Aloysius bargains away Angelique's future for a hefty bride-price, and no one, not even Angelique's beloved mother can save her. Angelique is taken to a strange and marvelous estate where she is befriended by Culdun, her Liege's fey companion. And though Culdun hints at darker forces, Angelique is drawn to her host and ever so slowly, she wins Drew's trust. But old fears and an older curse resurface, threatening to drive them apart and banish Drew into an eternity of loneliness. Will Angelique's growing love be strong enough to save her Liege? Or will she flee once the secret is revealed?

"No author could have retold Beauty and the Beast as beautifully as Chris Anne Wolfe. She entices you throughout the story, making your heart pound with each second. At the end you believe magic is afoot and love is as near to you as your dreams." --Heather Cassell, Bay Area Reporter

"Wolfe tells the story with a great deal of magic. Amidst fog and darkness and springing white steeds is just about everything a fantasy fan could want: shifting realities of time and space, protective spells, eternal curses and more." --Lee Lynch, LN

Before her death in July 1997, beloved lesbian-feminist author Chris Anne Wolfe published two of her four classic Amazon adventure novels - "Shadows of Aggar" and "Fires of Aggar." These two volumes are only the first half of the Aggar cycle. Chris Anne also published two stand-alone novels, the time-bending romance, "Annabel and I," and the retelling of Beauty and the Beast, "Roses and Thorns." The manuscripts of Chris Anne's remaining novels, short stories, poetry and songs, were willed to publisher and friend, Jennifer DiMarco. These hand-written volumes include both remaining Aggar books - "Sands of Aggar" and "Oceans of Aggar" - and more than a dozen retold fairy tales and original fantasy and contemporary novels.
