Beneath the Bramble Court

By Jennie Wren Foster

She inherited her grandmother's cottage. She awakened an ancient fae realm. Now she must become its queen-or destroy it.

Nell Fenwick returns to Hazelwick to settle her grandmother Margaret's estate-a small cottage with an overgrown garden and too many memories. What she doesn't expect is to find a doorway beneath the hedge, sealed by old magic and older promises.

When she speaks the word that breaks the seal, Nell awakens the Bramble Court and its keeper: Tieren, the Briar Prince, who has slept in thorns for longer than memory. Now they're bound-his power tethered to her voice, her fate tangled with his realm.

But the Court doesn't wake quietly. Creatures of root and ritual test her worthiness. Rival fae offer dangerous bargains. And the mirror in the greenhouse shows her the ghosts of every queen who came before-women who sought power, who tried to rule, and who all failed.

Tieren warns her that the Court will demand she become what every queen before her became: ruthless, hungry, lost.

But Nell didn't inherit her grandmother's cottage to repeat old mistakes. She inherited it to grow something new.

A gothic romantasy about inherited magic, dangerous awakenings, and choosing to bloom differently.

Perfect for fans of T. Kingfisher, Juliet Marillier, and Naomi Novik.
