Her mom has cancer so she helps her brother make money by playing lookout while he beats the sh*t out of people for a loan shark. and blood and monsters and blood and oh my god SO MUCH VIOLENCE AND BLOOD.įollowing? No, not even slightly? That’s fair, and also me neither.īasically, our protagonist, Harper, is a girl with a suuuuper tough life living in a high-crime area of current-day, real-life Washington, D.C. Anyway take all that stuff, and replace it with scenes from gritty modern-day D.C. This book is a Beauty and the Beast retelling, except take away the dope library and all the nice songs and France (okay yes I know the Disney version isn’t the original but I LIKE huge libraries and nice songs and France!!). and it will take more than a broken curse to save Harper, Rhen, and his people from utter ruin. But powerful forces are standing against Emberfall. And as Rhen realizes Harper is not just another girl to charm, his hope comes flooding back.
A prince? A curse? A monster? As she spends time with Rhen in this enchanted land, she begins to understand what's at stake. Harper doesn't know where she is or what to believe. When she tries to save a stranger on the streets of Washington, DC, she's pulled into a magical world. With her father long gone, her mother dying, and her brother constantly underestimating her because of her cerebral palsy, Harper learned to be tough enough to survive.
Before he destroyed his castle, his family, and every last shred of hope. But that was before he turned into a vicious beast hell-bent on destruction. An alternative cover edition for this ISBN can be found here.Ĭursed by a powerful enchantress to repeat the autumn of his eighteenth year, Prince Rhen, the heir of Emberfall, thought he could be saved easily if a girl fell for him.
