With only weeks away from her eighteenth birthday and the fulfillment of her curse, Rose, the Princess of Rhone, faces more obstacles than ever. The kingdom, anxious over her fate, is destabilizing under her father's rule; her mother is imprisoned, and her uncle is holding a silent coup against the crown. With Theo's absence, she is unable to do more than brood over her fate as she attempts to solve the problems around her.
When Theo returns with surprising information, Rose knows the time has come to risk everything. Along with her friends, she prepares to face Magdalina, the wicked ruler of the fairies, and fight the battle of her life - the battle for her freedom, her kingdom, and her heart.
From the book:
âI donât want to talk about it, Mary.â She measured her words out carefully, keeping her tone light. âI told you, he had to go and take care of something for his grandfather. It was important.â
âIt was more than that.â
âIt doesnât matter.â
âObviously, it does, or you wouldnât be acting like this.â Mary came up beside her. âHe told you that he loved you, didnât he?â
The blush on her cheeks burned hotter. âPlease stop, Mary,â she said. âIsnât it bad enough that he said it?â
âBut Rose, you love him, too.â Mary arched her brow at Roseâs silence. âDonât you?â
âOf course I do,â Rose snapped. âBut he doesnât deserve to be stuck with me and my curse. Thatâs why itâs better that he left.â
âOh, Rose.â Mary came up and leaned against her, stroking her hair in a mothering manner. âIâm so sorry.â
âDonât be.â
