When the impulsive and imperfect Beatrice Wolfe is ripped headlong from her post high school life and plunged into a treacherous magical world with no mercy and even fewer chances to survive, she knows her childhood is over.

When the hidden world of Eflorencia comes crashing into her life, Bea grabs onto the only people she can trust?the family who has lied to her for nineteen years. When the world she knew nothing about is on the brink of running out of magic (and consequently, out of time), Bea is ordered to dig deep to find magical reserves that were secretly buried in her at birth. The only trouble is that Bea has no clue how to access any of it.

When Bea learns that her father is the wicked king who has been behind the destruction of everything that the land of Eflorencia once had to offer, she knows she must take action against her newfound family. The people she didn't know she belonged to will never trust her family name, but if she doesn't act quickly and ready herself to sacrifice it all, they will not live long enough to see the sun shine on their destitute land ever again.

"Dead Princess" is book one in The Tales of Eflorencia. This coming-of-age story is for fantasy readers who devour first kiss butterflies only when accompanied by scandalous secrets. Enjoy the entire series, written by USA Today bestselling paranormal romance author Mary E. Twomey.
