The Thorn King's Bargain: A Dark Fantasy Romance

A hedge-witch bargains a year and a day to the cursed Thorn King to save her starving village, and discovers his curse is a covenant no one has dared to end.

The blight took the wheat first, then the barley, then the healing itself. Wrenna Hale walks three days to the black castle of Veyr and offers Cassian Vane a bargain instead of a plea: a year and a day of her craft, in exchange for seed grain before winter and a covenant finally honoured. Enemies to reluctant allies to something neither of them dared to minute, they have one winter to untie a two-hundred-year-old knot.

Inside:

- Enemies-to-lovers slow burn with a fade-to-black romance and a satisfying, complete ending

- A hedge-witch heroine who prices her village carefully, and a cursed king who has never been bargained with, only billed

- An original world, magic system, and covenant mystery: no chosen ones, no prophecies, just a contract and a question

- A full court of found family: a garrison captain, a furious last sorcerer, a cook who rules by ladle, and a miller

- 7 designed interior plates, and Book 1 of Thornbound Kingdoms, complete in itself

The bravest question in the world is: what do you need? Make the bargain today.
