Shadow of Thorns — Stacey Trombley

My fated mate is hated by the entire realm and I'll make it my life's mission to change their mind.I am Reveln, the fae prince who's brother was killed by a shadow fae assassin years ago. The whole realm expects me to hate my brother's killer, and I did- for a very long time.But now that I know the full story, now that Caelynn and I have been to hell and back together-literally- I'll do anything to keep her safe.But the realm does not see what I see. And now that I'm named High Prince, I have expectations to uphold, a plague to end and an evil monster to hunt down.I need Caelynn's help, whether the leaders of the kingdoms like it or not.So between parades and balls held in my honor, I work with the incredibly beautiful shadow fae assassin to save the realm from the evil still haunting us.The Queen is convinced I must let my mate go for good-but that is one sacrifice I refuse to make.
