To claim her crown, she must outwit the queen determined to break her.Enslaved. Hunted. Cursed.
On her twenty-first birthday, Princess Winterberry loses everything--her throne, her freedom, and the protection of the crown. Betrayed by the one who should defend her, she is cast into slavery while Queen Blanche rules Canens with icy cruelty, tightening her grip on a kingdom bound by eternal winter.
Winter's only protection is the Crown's Curse, an ancient prophecy that dooms anyone who spills royal blood. But Blanche is ruthless, wielding forbidden fae sorcery and commanding a network of slavers and spies who profit from fear and oppression. Against such power, Winter has only her wits, a spark of untested magic, and the will to endure.
Her path collides with Prince Ruslan of Heia, a rival heir determined to rescue his kidnapped sister. Forced into an uneasy alliance, Winter and Rus must survive treacherous lands, dangerous bargains, and Blanche's relentless pursuit.
Yet in a world where betrayal is the only currency and trust may cost them everything, even hope could be deadly.
Inspired by the legends of Snow White and Red Riding Hood, Fog & Mist is a spellbinding tale of betrayal, resilience, and the fight for freedom. Perfect for fans of dark fairy tale retellings!
