This book was a great retelling of the fairy tale Six Swans (by The Brothers Grimm) / The Wild Swans (by Hans Christian Andersen). This story combines features of both these related fairy tales and is filled with great characters as well as a wonderful story that draws the reader in and kept my interest till the end. I would have liked an epilogue for when Princess Meriel and Liam were older but the story left off on a good point and I plan to read more by this author.
Princess of the Wild Swans
Princess Meriel's brothers have been cursed. A terrible enchantment - cast by their conniving new stepmother - has transformed the handsome princes into swans. They now swim forlornly on a beautiful heart-shaped lake that lies just beyond the castle walls.
Meriel will do whatever it takes to rescue her beloved brothers. But she must act quickly. If Heart Lake freezes, her brothers will be forced to fly south or perish.
With help from her newfound friends Riona and Liam - a pretty half-witch and her clever brother - Meriel vows to finish a seemingly impossible task. If she completes it, her brothers may be saved.
But if she fails... all will be lost.
