The Steward: A Beautiful Monster's Saga

The Steward The village fears her. The forest protects her. The Steward wants her. Gwendolyn is no longer the little girl she once was. As uncertainty tightens its grip on Schloss Durchdenwald, the vexed and volatile steward, Hans, weaves a web of manipulation and lies, working to twist duty into domination and love into possession. His charm hides a hunger for power, and only his love of Gwendolyn stands in his way. Plagued by guilt from her past and a desire to cure her curse, Gwendolyn must redeem her past transgressions as she attempts to transform from monster to caretaker. As she grows, so do her powers, which comes with a price. Her allies divided, her steward under the seduction of temptation, her heart torn, and the threat of war lurking in the shadows, Gwendolyn is under the constant threat of conflicts that will shatter her world, set it ablaze, or both. In a world shaped by ancient folklore, false belief, monstrous bloodlines, and a thin veil between human and creature, Gwendolyn must choose whether to rise or to be ruled. The Steward is the second novel in A Beautiful Monster’s Saga , a dark fantasy novel series told in fast-paced, short story-style chapters for readers who love epic lore, complicated characters, and intimate emotional stakes.
