Synopsis

A New York Times bestselling dark epic fantasy inspired by the tale of Snow White, from C. J. Redwine, the author of the Defiance series. This breathtakingly romantic, action-packed fantasy is perfect for fans of A Court of Thorns and Roses and Cinder.

Lorelai Diederich, crown princess and fugitive at large, has one mission: kill the wicked queen who took both the Ravenspire throne and the life of her father. To do that, Lorelai needs to use the one weapon she and Queen Irina have in common―magic. She’ll have to be stronger, faster, and more powerful than Irina, the most dangerous sorceress Ravenspire has ever seen.

In the neighboring kingdom of Eldr, when Prince Kol’s father and older brother are killed by an invading army of magic-wielding ogres, the second-born prince is suddenly given the responsibility of saving his kingdom. To do that, Kol needs magic of his own―and the only way to get it is to make a deal with the queen of Ravenspire, promise to become her personal huntsman―and bring her Lorelai’s heart.

But Lorelai is nothing like Kol expected―beautiful, fierce, and unstoppable―and despite dark magic, Lorelai is drawn in by the passionate and troubled king. Fighting to stay one step ahead of the dragon huntsman―who she likes far more than she should―Lorelai does everything in her power to ruin the wicked queen. But Irina isn’t going down without a fight, and her final move may cost the princess the one thing she still has left to lose.

• A Dark Snow White Retelling: A fugitive princess with powerful magic of her own, Lorelai isn’t waiting for a prince to save her. She’s on a mission to kill her evil aunt, the queen, and take back her throne.
• Enemies to Lovers: He’s the dragon-shifting prince sent to cut out her heart. She’s the target he can’t stop himself from falling for.
• Forbidden Romance: Lorelai finds herself drawn to the troubled huntsman she should despise, fighting an attraction that could cost them both their lives.
• High-Stakes Magic: To defeat the most dangerous sorceress in the kingdom, Lorelai must become even more powerful, wielding a magic that could save Ravenspire—or be her undoing.
