'Dennis is a Royal Hound. His job is to protect the Royals of Castle Charming from harm. But when a plague of magical spinning wheels besieges the kingdom, it’s his boyfriend Kai who falls under their spell.

'Kai didn’t know he was a long-lost prince, but now he’s trapped in a magical nightmare castle that’s trying to kill him… with the one person he thought he would never meet.

'Secrets, lies and old plots finally unravel at the heart of Castle Charming. Will Kai and Dennis ever find their way back to each other?'
