A magical ability that causes flowers to spew forth and turning all your food into flowers... a looming death...and a mystical being who could fix your curse... and the problem? One kiss from her might not be enough. This was a wonderful retelling of the Portuguese legend. princess Yzabel is cursed with the ability to turn anything she touches into flowers, forcing her into the predicament in which she herself is forced to starve since she cannot eat anything. Meanwhile, there is a plague happening around her and the people are also starving. In order to reverse or even try to manage her powers she gets a beautiful enchanted Moura named Fatyan to help her. Yzabel is betrothed to the King of Portugal who continues to forbid her to give more food or money to the people... Yzabel must struggle with committing treason with her magical gifts and her looming feelings for Fatyan. Their love could spell destruction for both of them but will they fight for it? I immensely enjoyed reading this book. The struggles and issues that Yzabel faced not only with her religion but her internalized homophobia is very well depicted. The story was well told and wraps up wonderfully. I would definitely recommend this wonderful fantasy romance for anyone who enjoys a great story!
