About this ebook
Trust no one in the shadows of the piney woods . . .
Letty Hood has spent the last fifteen years of her life hidden away with her grandmother in the backwoods of east Texas to escape the deadly schemes of an uncle who wants her dead. Now, with her twenty-first birthday on the horizon, she is forced to accept the escort of a stranger and return to Houston in secret so she can claim a birthright that will make her one of the wealthiest women in Texas. If she lives long enough to inherit.
Pinkerton agent Philip Carmichael has one duty: get the Radcliffe heiress home alive. Expecting a spoiled girl, Philip is surprised to encounter a woman of rare strength with a kind soul and keen wit. As they journey together, Letty's resilience wins his admiration, breaking through his hardened cynicism. Yet the threat to her survival grows more menacing with every mile, and Philip fears that keeping Letty out of harm's way may be just as impossible as keeping her out of his heart.

“How was a girl supposed to guard her heart against such a man? Handsome, protective, honorable to the core.” A red cloaked heroine, trusty wolf, dashing Pinkerton agent hero, a dragon & much more! I loved this reimagining of Sleeping Beauty & Little Red Riding Hood. In Cloaked in Beauty, Karen Witemeyer delivers another favorite, delightful fairytale twist with Western flair. I adored this story! It was so fun finding all the clever nods to both fairytales! The romance was amazing! A must read!

Cloaked in Beauty is purely delightful and utterly enchanting, and fairy tale lovers will be thrilled to dive into this western romance! It combines the Little Red Riding Hood and Sleeping Beauty fairy tales, with countless allusions to the Walt Disney Sleeping Beauty movie we all know and love. It made my nostalgic Disney heart very happy!
