About this ebook

Liora Ashen steps forward before her younger sister can be taken. Every five years, Mistfall must send a woman through the black gates as payment to the Umbral Fae of Ebonbriar, and this time the village ledger chooses eighteen-year-old Nessa. Liora is twenty-eight, widowed, and still grieving the husband she lost to shadow-born violence. If the monsters demand a sacrifice, she decides they can have the woman who already believes her future is gone. Beyond the gate waits Thalen Shadowwarden, an immortal Umbral Fae bound to Gloamhall and to a curse older than anyone in Mistfall remembers. He is beautiful, dangerous, infuriating, and far less simple than the stories Liora has been taught. The strange hall itself seems alive, secrets hide behind every rule Thalen refuses or is unable to explain, and the Ebonbriar Court has its own reasons for keeping both of them trapped inside an ancient bargain. Liora enters determined to hate the Fae. Instead, she begins discovering the cost Thalen has paid for centuries and the man beneath the monstrous reputation. Trust is dangerous when every truth has consequences, and love may be more dangerous still. The Shadowbound Bride of Ebonbriar is a gothic fae fantasy romance filled with a sentient manor, sacrifice traditions, old curses, dangerous portals, grief, redemption, and a widowed heroine who must decide whether a creature she was raised to fear can become the second chance she never expected to want.
