The Beauty Thief

The Beauty Thief NEW web cover 3I wrote this fictional story because I wanted to find a creative way to say true beauty, the kind that surpasses the physical, flows out of a kind and courageous soul.  I dedicated the book to my daughters, but I could have done so to all my children.

It says:

Your beauty lies not in how you look or what you wear. It is in the depths of your heart where character and courage reside.

The Beauty Thief may seem like a simple fantasy story written to entertain, but at the marrow, it is a reminder. Who we are as people and how we care for those around us are what truly make us beautiful. The nice thing about sharing this through fiction is we can enjoy a good adventure along the way!

The Beauty Thief book description:

Beauty is more than appearance. It is a force worth stealing, and there is one man in the Twelve Realms who will stop at nothing to consume every drop from the most pure source, Princess Caityn’s soul.Caityntree3

Having just reached her eighteenth year, Caityn will soon marry her betrothed, High Prince Theiandar. At first, selfish desire fought against obedience, but Caityn’s inmost beauty compelled her instead to follow honor and duty which brought her an unexpected gift—love.

But the thief’s covetous need for life-giving beauty is a legend long forgotten, and no one knows the true devastation his depravity will bestow. Caityn and Theiandar’s love will be tested and their lives put on the line by the quest to uncover the mystery of the curse. If the uncompromising devotion of one man is not enough, Caityn’s soul will be lost forever.

  5. Fish says, wonderful read. It was completed before I started NaNo and I meant to pop over and say for yiur target demographic it’s spot on. Great idea and Nox works very well as the antagonist. Not too in your face, but does make you think there is a lot more to him than meets the eye. Caityn work very well too, it’s easy to dislike her as the souless creature she becomes, but drives the depth of loyalty and love by her friends and the prince.

    Might have to check out Captive Hope now 😊
