Upon a Winter's Curse
(2025)(The third book in the Wholesome Romance in Oz series)
A novel by Jordan Riley Swan
Love is not for the cowardly.
Prince Lional vowed to never harm a living soul. So when the Wicked Witch cursed him into becoming a carnivorous lionman, forced to hunt animals to survive, it made him doubt his very nature. Worse, she transformed his subjects into an apple tree orchard for daring to be loyal. Lional isn’t afraid to take on the moniker “cowardly lion,” but what scares him is the thought that he may never cure his people.
After the Wicked Witch has been run from the castle, leaving a chaotic pile of dangerous wands, Lional must decipher which ones can save him and his people. But the prince needs help—even if it’s from someone who hates him from his whiskers to his paws.
Bellina served loyally at Lional’s castle until her father was caught in the curse-crossfire and turned into a tree. To save him, she has spent every waking moment studying wands and what they can do. Now, Prince Lional has reached out to her in hopes she can find the right wand to lift the curse. The catch? She’ll have to move back into the horrific castle and pretend to be married to the cowardly prince she blames for the whole incident in the first place…
