Familiar with the Warlock #3
Caught Bare
She didn’t want this life or these men. True love’s kiss has ties that bind, and unraveling them is not an easy task…but she is going to try.
Sallen has been running from her heritage all her life. When her mother suddenly passes, she can’t bring herself to part from the city where they made so many memories. She takes on a job as a courier and settles into a nice routine.
Abruptly taken from her apartment, she meets her father’s side of the family, and she doesn’t like what she sees. She’s stripped of her defensive glamour, and her heritage is laid out for all to see. Descended from Rapunzel and the golden goose, her hair brings luck and wealth to any family she joins but only if she gives it willingly. Her family have other plans. They are going to auction her off to the highest bidder. Desperate for help, she sends a message via the only means at her disposal, and she waits.
The master of the guild and his partners arrive and rescue her, but they offer her the same fate with a few alterations. She will choose, true love’s kiss will bind her, and she will agree to honour the kiss. Yeah, that isn’t going to happen.

Shorten story
Like all her recent works it is a great story the problem is the ending. It seems she met her quota of words and abruptly ends it. I used to buy all her works,but after the spell caster series( which was excellent) I'm reluctant to do so since the endings are all so abrupt.

Another brilliant tale
I am really loving these Stand Alone Tales! They are just so enjoyable, unexpected, satisfying.
They have an adult perspective, but always consensual, and, well, grown up!
Plus the possibilities of graphic novels. How bright the future is looking!

Amazing!
Another amazing retelling of a fairytale with a twist or three. S Allen ends finding that which she didn’t think she wanted or needed. Great book in this series.

I totally agree with Viola Grace's series of Stand Alone Tales. Ingenious ideas that enchant the imagination and intrigue your sense of whimsy.
