The Horned Women: A Contemporary retelling of an Irish fairy tale (The Castle in Kilkenny: Fairy Tales Book 1)

About

Being a single mother is hard enough without murderous Fae in your living room.

 All that Maura Robinson wanted from her contentious divorce was custody of her two young children—and an Irish castle. Instead, she ends up with her ex’s teenaged kids, plumbing problems, and twelve horned women carding and spinning by her fireplace.

The horned women demand tea, then cake…and then blood. As their hold on Maura increases, the castle itself responds to their battle of wills (and embroidery). Trapped in a storybook nightmare, Maura’s only power is her knowledge of folklore—and grim determination to protect her children.

But is a stepmother’s love enough to save the grumpy teens…or will their new home in Ireland destroy their family?

Trapped in the nightmare side of folklore, Maura’s only power is a grim determination to protect her children.
