Arrows and Gems
A Retelling of Robin Hood and Snow White and Rose Red

Running away to join a band of outlaws wasn’t supposed to involve getting shot.

Princess Helena woke from twelve years of enchanted sleep to find her childhood sweetheart married and a deadline from the council: choose a husband, or they’ll choose one for her. She’s not interested in a loveless marriage, so she disappears to the neighboring kingdom to offer her bow to its most wanted outlaw.

Cap is convinced she was sent to trap him. An injured enemy in his camp is the last thing he needs, but he can’t ignore someone who needs help. Now he’s dodging her attempts to see his face and trying not to look too close at her fiery green eyes.

Their first meeting didn’t go well – Helena has the shoulder wound to prove it. But Cap’s band of strays and the mission that drives him aren’t what she expected. Staying is no longer just about freedom; it’s about the people.

And the outlaw she wishes she’d met sooner.
