Forgive-Me-Not: A Graphic Novel

Description:

A lush, sapphic, enemies-to-lover YA fantasy graphic novel about a changeling princess, a faerie heir, and the dangerous romance neither of them expected, perfect for fans of The Darkest Part of the Forest, Emily Wilde's Encyclopaedia of Faeries, and The Girl From the Sea.

Aisling has spent her whole life believing she was the beloved crown princess. But on the eve of her eighteenth birthday, a mysterious girl named Forgive-Me-Not breaks into her bedroom with a terrifying truth:
Aisling is not human.

She's a changeling -- a fae child secretly swapped into the royal family years ago.

And Forgive-Me-Not? She's the real princess.

Raised in the brutal world of Faerie while Aisling lived in luxury, Forgive-Me-Not wants revenge for the life stolen from her. But when the two girls are forced onto the run together, anger slowly gives way to reluctant trust, sharp banter, aching vulnerability, and an undeniable attraction.
