A roar of a dark and luscious epic fantasy that’s layered with heady romance, bloodthirsty magic, and ghostly intrigue - an absolutely wicked delight.

Princess Aurelia is a prisoner to her crown and the heir that nobody wants. Surrounded by spirits and banned from using her blood-magic, Aurelia flees her country after a devastating assassination attempt. To escape her fate, Aurelia disguises herself as a commoner in a new land and discovers a happiness her crown has never allowed. As she forges new bonds and perfects her magic, she begins to fall for a man who is forbidden to rule beside her.

But the ghosts that haunt Aurelia refuse to abandon her, and she finds herself succumbing to their call as they expose a nefarious plot that only she can defeat. Will she be forced to choose between the weight of the crown and the freedom of her new life?

Editor's Pick

Tell me a fairy tale like this
"Right out of the gate, Crystal Smith’s debut novel has been getting some capital-H Hype for its fast-paced plot and clever twists. It’s a fairy tale retelling of Grimm’s "The Goose Girl" about a princess who’s supposed to marry a prince she doesn’t like, but then has her identity stolen by her lady-in-waiting, causing things go awry pretty quickly. The princess, Aurelia, can use illegal blood magic, which she’s forced to use to survive in the underbelly of society. Narrator Nicola Barber can keep up with the fast clip of the story as well as slow it down when we reach the quieter moments. Death and danger run amok in this story, but there’s also romance here too, and Barber is deft in carrying us through it. I can see how this one is going to claim a spot in the lineup of fantastic new YA fantasies this year." —Melissa B., Audible Editor

Don't waste your credit. This is a very predictable storyline that is easy to figure out from the beginning what takes the heroine the entire story to figure out. You will spend your time waiting for her to get a clue and figure out what you already know.

It took me a few chapters to get really engaged with the characters however once I was hooked in, I couldn’t stop listening! Lots of suspense, tender romance (not too sweet or trite), lush setting and backstory.
