Tress
by Larissa Brown
Ever since little Tess cut off her doll's hands and painted them blood red, she's longed to live in a gruesome fairy tale. But when grown-up Tess can hardly tend her own wounds, how can she free a golden-haired woodsman from his curse? Larissa Brown, author of the Viking love story Beautiful Wreck, crosses genres with a novella that's part fairy tale, part gothic horror, with a dash of fated love.
