Two powerful fae princes. One will be her salvation. The other, her ruin.

Cursed and alone in her own castle, Aurelia has spent years watching her kingdom wither. When trespassers finally break the silence, it’s both a dream and a nightmare.

Prince Callan is the first outsider she has seen in an age—golden, arrogant, and her only hope. He alone can shatter the curse, but his help comes at a cost: her freedom.

Then there’s Rydian.

Cold where Callan burns hot, lethal where he is charming, the second fae prince is an enigma—and an attraction she can’t ignore. Too bad he despises her on sight.

In a realm where deception reigns, Aurelia must trust one prince to save her. The other will destroy her.

If only she knew which.

A Kingdom of Briars & Roses is a slow-burn, royal fae romantasy that includes morally gray characters, enemies-to-lovers, political intrigue, who did this to you, and touch her and unalive. One-click this ACOTAR meets Reign with a Sleeping Beauty Twist story today.

“A delightfully twisted Sleeping Beauty retelling featuring the fierce, sword-wielding Princess Aurelia and the brooding prince who just can’t take his eyes off her. Swoon!” -Ashley McLeo, Author of The Winter Court Series

"A captivating blend of romantasy and slow-burn enemies-to-lovers dynamics for fans of Reign and ACOTAR.” -GK DeRosa, Author of Crown of Light and Shadows
