As the youngest daughter of King Edric and Queen Chrissy of Lagola, Holly's blessing ceremony is anything but ordinary. Her blessing-or curse-condemned her to keep her word or otherwise face dire consequences. Now sixteen, Holly would rather spend her time camping, pulling pranks, and perfecting her archery skills with her brothers instead of dressing up and attending royal balls. Things go awry when Holly disguises herself and enters the archery tournament Prince Donovan has hosted. Donovan and a crew of worthy gentleman must venture on a treacherous quest to seek a missing princess. Holly must find a way to cope with her growing feelings toward Prince Donovan, unravel the darker mystery of the north, and, perhaps, seek to save not only a princess, but an entire country. Full of adventure, romance, and magic, THE CURSED BLESSING is the final installment in Melissa Buell's Tales of Gymandrol trilogy.
