Beauty in the Beast

A Temmeland novel

When Chandini arrives at the sorcerer's mansion, she hopes only that his beautification process will work. Being accustomed to, and at peace with her appearance, she cares nothing for this magical transformation herself, but if it will secure the marriage to the Khilafah of Ketala, that her father has arranged to free him from crippling debts, then she will do it. She has no choice.

What she doesn't envision is making unexpected and highly unusual friends at the mansion, and the discovery of the horrific secret of the sorcerer's power. Once again, she has no choice. She must stop him, even if it means losing all that she had been expecting in her life. Self-acceptance is a powerful magic.
