What happens when an intruder crosses paths with a lizard? After being dubbed the “most handsome man in the village” by his peers, Faron longs to get away from women who treat him like a prize. The only thing keeping him there is his ailing mother. So when rumor of a healer emerges from another village, they both jump at the chance. But things don’t quite go as planned… Having been betrayed and cursed by everyone she’s ever met outside her secret palace, Marian becomes suspicious when a woman somehow comes across it. When she captures the woman, and a man claiming to be the woman’s son declares he’ll take her place, she remains skeptical. But desperation and misguided kindness can lead a person to some insane decisions… Though their relationship is off to a rough start, Faron and Marian begin to understand each other as they spend time together. But Marian has secrets, and Faron has enemies he didn’t even know about. Can they find a way to see past their assumptions and love beyond appearances?
