A Dowager Queen moves in secret. The Council prepares to decide Wren's fate. And the Wildwood-an ancient power with plans of its own-has no intention of giving her back.Because the forest has chosen.And the Wildwood does not make mistakes.A Hunt of Thorns is the first book in The Briarheart Court trilogy-a dark fae romantasy featuring forbidden bonds, court intrigue, ancient magic, possessive heroes, and a heroine who discovers that being chosen may be far more dangerous than being hunted.
