Maribel is like every other maiden in her kingdom, and like the others, she's fallen under a spell.
After she's caught in an enchanted rainstorm, her dreams become vivid, and she spends hours each night taking on new tasks, each imparting her with a painful reminder in the morning.
While she thrives on the challenges, she fears her fate, unsure of the purpose and origin of these unreal dreams.
Are they an ill omen? A magical attack by an enemy of the kingdom? Or are they preparing her for something beyond what she's ever dreamed of?
The Dream Trials is a novelette retelling of the Dutch fairy tale The Princess and the Pea. It is a standalone story in the Magic in the Match fairy tale romance series.
