Court of Bitter Thorn. The Fae of Bitter Thorn, #1

He's a cursed fae prince. She's the mortal with a sword who can save him. Swords first, love later. That was always Elora's rule. Duty demands she marry a rich merchant to save her family, but a cruel twist of fate, and a handsome fae prince, have other plans. Now she's a stranger in a strange land, bound by a bargain she foolishly made. Prince Brannick is everything she shouldn't want: smug, powerful, and the ruler of a cursed, beautiful court.
He expects Elora to teach him the art of the blade to help him win a deadly contest for a throne. He doesn't know her own dreams are just as sharp, or that she'd do anything to get back to the world she left behind. Court of Bitter Thorn is the first book in the magical romantasy series, The Fae of Bitter Thorn.
