Charmed (The Enchanted Kingdom Chronicles)

Maeve is perfectly content with her simple life in the woods…until an unexpected encounter with a wizard thrusts her into an unwanted magical apprenticeship. Although she's reluctant to leave her struggling family behind, Maeve will do anything to help her ailing brother, including honing the magic she didn't know she possessed, until she has the skill required to perform a magical cure.One day both her magical education and carefully laid plans go awry when a mistaken ingredient creates not a spell for healing, but a curse that transforms her into a frog. Left with no other course, Maeve is forced to turn to the wizard and prince, Alden, whose distraction with anything not pertaining to magic makes him the last man she can rely on.Unaware of his new frog companion's true identity as his apprentice, Alden and Maeve work together to compete in a magical contest whose prize will give both of them their greatest desire. Amid all manner of charms, spells, and enchantments—as well as a mysterious curse slowly robbing each contestant of their powers—Alden and Maeve will need to find the strength to overcome the obstacles hindering their journey in order to open their eyes to the possibility that the greatest spell of all might not be the magical ambitions they're striving for, but the true love that has been in disguise all along.Inspired by "The Sorcerer's Apprentice" and "The Frog Princess" Read more
