CURRENT WIP
If Margaret Dorney were to be completely honest, she’d admit she wants to be the hero of an epic quest — specifically, one of the ones with magic and unicorns. Unfortunately, those don’t exist in the real world. The closest Maggie gets to high adventure is daydreaming on a walk or while she restores other people’s books. At least, that’s the closest she gets before Calder Davies arrives in her doorway with a curse on his head and agents of the Faerie Princess on his tail. After that, things get alarmingly magical, and Maggie must use every tool she’s got — all the stories she’s read or dreamed up, a lot of faith, a little luck, and maybe even her actual bookbinding tools — to help both herself and her (very attractive, exactly-her-type, oh no) companion survive the Otherworld and break his curse.
