Promises, Promises - by L-J Baker (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

Sandy Blunt, witch, has big dreams but C-average magic skills. Her only noteworthy talent is for paying extravagant compliments to women. Trouble is, when she uses that gift, she unwittingly foretells the future for a pretty princess. The punishment for prophesying about one of royal blood is death. With the help of ill-assorted companions, including a self-professed princess in disguise with a wild imagination, a self-absorbed member of the royal guard, and the not-so-average girl next door, Sandy has a year and a day to travel to far-flung places--encountering such dangerous creatures as a dragon who writes awful poetry, slovely elves, and boarding house landladies--to collect the weird and magical items needed to turn her prophecies into promises and so evade the executioner.

Review Quotes

"This is a book that gives you double f/f-happy-endings plus a healthy dose of reassurance that physical attraction between women is normal..." - Shira Glassman, author of The Second Mango "Promises, Promises is a light-hearted, hilarious tale that contrives to be an entertaining read while it pokes fun at the fantasy genre's most beloved conventions: quests, D&D, women warriors in chainmail bikinis, magical swords and mythical creatures." - Catherine Lundoff, Golden Crown Literary Award winning author
