Slippers and Songs


Brodyr Alarch, book #1

by Morgan Sheppard



In the realm of Holmfirth, far from Melthkior, Princess Tesni finds herself ensnared in a curse that compels her to dance tirelessly through the night. She must navigate a delicate balance between her royal responsibilities and the ceaseless rhythm of her relentless dance. Tesni yearns to be perceived as more than a coveted reward to be claimed for breaking the enchantment.

Summoned by Tesni’s father, Prince Brenin finds himself irresistibly drawn to Tesni’s captivating personality and quiet strength, by the genuine beauty that emanates from her. In the velvety embrace of deepest night, Brenin becomes Tesni’s silent guardian, accompanying her to the realm of the Otherworld. There, he answers riddles posed by the mysterious Taliesin.

Will Brenin uncover the secrets that tether Tesni to her unending dance, winning not only her freedom but also her heart? Will the silent whispers of their burgeoning affection be allowed to grow? Or will Tesni remain forever entwined in the dance of the Otherworld that holds her captive?

Slippers and Songs is a Twelve Dancing Princesses fairytale retelling and the first book in the Brodyr Alarch series, where Brothers Grimm stories entwine with the fascinating mythology of the Welsh Gods. Sealed with a Curse serves as the overarching frame story for the broader Brodyr Alarch series.

Praise for Slippers and Songs:

"It's beautifully written. Full of Welsh myths and gods..."
~ Amazon 5* Review

"The world-building in Morgan's books is truly incredible, and I enjoyed being immersed in the stories as I let her descriptions pull me in.
The characters were also well-developed and different from each other. The secondary characters really added a lot to the story, as well.
I highly recommend reading Slippers and Songs!"
