The Lady's Maid and the Spy Prince
(2026)(The fourth book in the Curse Keeper, Curse Breaker series)
A novel by E J Kitchens
A forbidden bookshop. A forbidden romance. Tea cups and treason.
Prince Marmaduke of Breland is a handsome bald man but is convinced he needs a spell for hair to be a better spy. The trouble is the only place to get the spell is the Potions and Pages Bookshop Teashop and Spellery in Litvania, a kingdom known for trying to grab other lands—and royals—however it can.
Lady Lolly of Litvania would do anything to keep her secret correspondent in Breland safe from the machinations of Litvania’s princess, even risk the Potions and Pages Bookshop for a book on how to betray her princess and kingdom.
When the two literally run into each other among the bookshelves, trouble ensues, and it only gets worse when they find their spells. It will take more than a good cup of tea to save them both from their bespelled fates and Litvania’s plots.
Humor, spells gone awry, a matchmaking dinner-jacket wearing bookshop cat, and a dash of Cinderella magic, You’ve Got Mail mistaken identities, and The Shaggy Dog funin a no-spice cozy fantasy of spying gone awry.
Genre: Young Adult Fantasy
