An adult fairy tale, doesn’t seem possible in these modern times, does it? There are no beautiful princesses with a curse anymore, no heroic princes to find and rescue them, no rogue’s gallery of villains to stand in their way. Really? In 2030 New York City, the princess could be Tamzin, an orphaned heiress with a curse that forces her to return home every few hours or risk death. Her prince could be Mitch, an honored war hero with a curse of his own, working as a maintenance man, eschewing all but incidental contact with people. New York City is target-rich with villainy including drug gangs, Russian mobsters, and a greedy Wall Street executive and his gold-digging trophy wife.Will Tamzin tell Mitch of her curse, fearing that it may drive him away? Can Mitch protect Tamzin from the dangers that beset her? Can she break free of her isolated childhood and make something of herself in this modern world? Can they both find the love missing in their lives? This tale is for grown-ups, not children. But adults, like children, are certainly allowed to daydream about saving the princess, finding true love, and living happily ever after.
