Her Radiant Curse

Channi's father sacrificed her to the Demon Witch, and she came back with a serpent's face. Only her beautiful younger sister, Vanna, still sees her as herself. When seventeen-year-old Vanna is pledged into a degrading contest that serves the village leaders, Channi uses all her strength and cunning to protect her, and that draws her into the path of the cruelest suitor. What follows is a battle, a journey across land and sea, a romance between enemies, and a choice that tests her heart.

A prequel to Six Crimson Cranes that can be read on its own, it blends Beauty and the Beast and Helen of Troy with Asian folklore, and follows a sisterhood bent by beauty, sacrifice and the demon Angma's interest in Vanna.
