Synopsis

Now available in paperback from Wendy Higgins, author of the Sweet Evil series, the New York Times bestselling The Great Hunt reimagines the Brothers Grimm fairy tale “The Singing Bone” in a dramatic, romance-filled fantasy with rugged hunters, romantic tension, and a princess willing to risk all to save her kingdom.

When a monstrous beast attacks in Eurona, desperate measures must be taken. The king sends a proclamation to the best and bravest hunters: whoever kills the creature will win the hand of his daughter Princess Aerity. The princess recognizes her duty but cannot bear the idea of marrying a stranger—she was meant to marry for love—until a brooding local hunter, Paxton Seabolt, catches her attention. And while there’s no denying the fiery chemistry between them, Princess Aerity feels that Paxton’s mysteriousness is foreboding, maybe even dangerous.

Paxton is not the marrying type. Nor does he care much for spoiled royals and their arcane laws. He is determined to keep his focus on the task at hand—ridding the kingdom of the beast—but the princess continues to surprise him, and the secrets he’s buried begin to surface against his wishes.

• Fairy Tale Retelling: A dark and romantic twist on the Brothers Grimm’s “The Singing Bone,” where a monstrous beast puts an entire kingdom at risk.
• A Deadly Hunt: When the king offers his daughter’s hand as the prize, the bravest hunters in the land gather to slay a terrifying creature—but many won’t survive.
• Slow Burn Romance: He’s a brooding hunter who despises royalty. She’s a princess wary of his dangerous mysteriousness. But their undeniable chemistry is a threat to them both.
• Forbidden Magic: Paxton is determined to keep his focus on the hunt, but the closer he gets to Princess Aerity, the harder it is to hide the dangerous secrets of his past—and the power he was born with.
