Welcome to Grimwood!
Sure, sure. It’s a little dangerous and you’ve got curses running wild and the forest is dying and things are a little shady, but WELCOME ANYWAY!
At the heart of all this craziness is the Grimm family. One tiny wish turned into a clusterfuck of epic proportions when the witch in the woods comes for payment. Five hundred years later, the Grimm family is scattered, the woods are rotting from within, and the legacy the family was supposed to uphold has all but been forgotten.
WHEW!
Yeah, the Grimms are a little messed up, but they find their way. Eventually.
Cursed Bones is Isobel and Cade’s story. Isobel, as you might recall, is the Grimm twin left behind. The one who grew up petulant and spoiled thanks to the heaping dose of grief and guilt her parents dealt with after Zel’s abduction. When Cade finds her, she’s living in a decaying manor house deep in Grimwood and she’s pretty darn close to feral. But then, countless years alone with nothing but the dying woods for company can have that effect on a person.
A little more of the magic (and curses!) of Grimwood are revealed in this gender-flipped retelling of Beauty and the Beast.
