BOOKENDS
The Princess and the Hound by Mette Ivie Harrison
Prince George, heir to the throne, cursed with powers of forbidden animal magic; his mother dead, his father ill, he has the responsibility of a kingdom on his shoulders. Princess Beatrice, betrothed to George, unwanted by her father, her only friend a hound from the wilds... but the hound is more than a friend. They both have secrets that must be hidden -- at great cost to themselves.
I have been looking forward to finally getting this book at the library -- it had received some respectable reviews, and it sounded like just the kind of fairy-tale romance I enjoy -- and it was definitely that. One of those rare books that kept me reading even after I was too tired to keep my eyes open!
