About this ebook

Book 1 in the complete trilogy from USA Today bestselling author Anthea Sharp, a fantasy weaving elements of Snow White & Rose Red with romance, magic, and dangerous secrets that will destroy a kingdom.


Two sisters. One enchanted forest. And a hidden destiny that could doom them both…


Swept away to the castle beside the Darkwood, Rose Valrois finds herself in a world full of secrets and forbidden magic. There she meets her new stepsister, the enigmatic Princess Neeve, who will either become her best friend - or her worst enemy.


When Rose follows her stepsister into the enchanted shadows beneath the trees, she is beset by dangerous creatures and rescued by Thorne, the Dark Elf guardian of the forest, who binds her to the Darkwood and forbids her to speak of its mysteries.


​​​​​​​Yet despite the danger surrounding her, Rose continues to risk everything in her quest for answers, until the day she steals into the depths of the forest and discovers the most perilous secret of all...

As a new to me author, I greatly enjoyed the book overall. As the first book in the series, the author did a wonderful job setting up the world. But it did kind of lag and didn’t seem like much happened over the passing of time. Nothing significant at least. Rose and Neeve did bond over that time but that’s pretty much it. Hints of danger were made but nothing came of it until basically the end. I’ve heard the series gets better as it goes on so I’m hopeful for the next one.
