You Have to Kiss a Lot of Frogs to Find Your Prince.
Thirty-something, unemployed, and living in the shabby home left to her by her beloved dad, Cass Gabriel knows better than anyone that you have to kiss a lot of frogs before you can expect your prince to come along. She just . . . takes it more literally than most. But what she doesn’t realize when performing her annual good luck tradition by the back garden pond is that sometimes wishes really do come true, in the way that you least expect.
Because this new year’s kiss triggers something impossible when a small, ordinary-looking frog explodes into a man. A very naked man. And one who announces himself as Dahlan Anura, Crown Prince of the Seventh Kingdom.
Looking after a real prince charming who has been transplanted into a Nottinghamshire housing estate is one thing. Falling in love with him is quite another. And as Cass, her best friend Kori and their motley crew of friends and family learn, the road to a fairytale ending is never entirely straightforward.
