A cursed witch. A ruthless fae general. A magical bond that could ignite a war-or spark a love that defies every rule.

Seren Elowen has lived her entire life in hiding, suppressing the dangerous magic tied to a forbidden bloodline. But when she's kidnapped by fae soldiers and taken across the veil into a realm of treacherous beauty, her world shatters. There, she learns a devastating truth: she's magically bonded to Kael Thornhart, the fae general leading the war against witches.

Kael is cold, disciplined, and lethal. Seren is everything he was taught to hate. Yet the bond between them crackles with power-and something far more dangerous than magic.

As enemies close in and secrets unravel, Seren must decide whether to run from the bond that binds her... or lean into the fire and face the destiny she never asked for.

Fans of enemies-to-lovers romance, political intrigue, and lush magical worlds will be spellbound by Marked by Thorns, the first book in the Hearts of the Hollow Court series.

Perfect for readers of Sarah J. Maas, Sylvia Mercedes, and Carissa Broadbent.
