A modern, genderbent twist on the classic Beauty and the Beast Mora fights to break the curse of thorns cast upon her. She won't give up since the spell also altered her three best friends. She hides them away in an old fortress, hoping the secret spot will keep them safe until she finds a solution. Their ticking clock is running out, evident by the magical pen narrating her life. Once the ink runs out of the pen, she and her friends will perish. Brody wants to travel, to start a new life free from his past demons.

When he meets the clever witch living inside, cursed with flesh of thorns, he knows there's more to her story and won't leave until his curiosities are satisfied. This grumpy witch and over-enthused man are forced to work together when their lives tangle in a gnarled vine of disaster. Will they break the curse? And how?
