While Jude was navigating treacherous court politics and dangerous romance, her sister Taryn was writing her own story in the shadows—one that's far more complicated than anyone realized. This companion novella gives Taryn her moment to shine as she reveals the secrets behind her own heart and her connection to the charming (and definitely dangerous) Locke. It's a delicious glimpse into how quickly fairy tale romance can blur the line between sweet and sinister when fae tricksters are involved. Perfect for readers who wanted more of the Cruel Prince world and are ready to see how love looks from a different perspective.
