Sting of Thorns

Victory always has a cost. The fight is over, and Leigh Morgan won. After spending months spying in Otherworld as a servant, she's rescued the humans who were abducted by the Others and sent them safely home. She had to stay behind to destroy the gateway between worlds and keep them safe, but tough luck. She's prepared to pay the price. But she didn't expect the curse that the queen of Otherworld lays on her: a thorny vine growing under Leigh's skin that will kill her when it reaches her heart. The queen will lift the curse...if Leigh uses her connections in the human realm to locate a magical weapon lost hundreds of years ago. To ensure she succeeds, the queen sends her son, Dredarion Rath, the cunning prince Leigh had to betray to save her people. With anger and hurt still fresh, they can barely stand to be in the same room together, much less cooperate on such a dangerous mission. But as Leigh's friends risk everything to help her, she'll have to find a way to reconcile with Dredarion before their quest gets her and everyone she cares about killed. The Dark and Otherworldly series continues with deadlier threats, darker romance, and deeper secrets. Return to Otherworld and read it now.
