White Horse Black Nights
by Evie Marceau
Why Read This?The one-sentence sell. What do you get for showing up to this book, even when it's hard?
A dark fairytale retelling blending Snow White and Lady Godiva legends with a fierce heroine who can speak to animals and her brooding, conflicted guard. The forbidden romance crackles with tension against a backdrop of fae intrigue and betrayal.
Synopsis
We still worship the sleeping fae, though their magic only remains within a few of us. Locked away for twelve years, Sabine Darrow’s only friends are animals she communicates with using magic. Now, sold as a bride to a villainous high lord, her greatest fear is trading one prison for another. But a potential escape lies in the form of her gruff yet achingly handsome guard, whose loyalty she is determined to break. A huntsman with heightened senses, Basten “Wolf” Bowborn has more important things to do than transport his master’s new bride. With ancient creatures reawakening along the kingdom's border wall, he is torn between his duty and his desire to investigate—until a forbidden attraction becomes an unyielding obsession. Welcome to Astagnon—a kingdom of cruel games and corrupted courts, where the only thing more dangerous than the secrets slumbering underground is falling for the one person you can’t have. Drawing inspiration from Snow White and the Lady Godiva legend, WHITE HORSE BLACK NIGHTS is a dark enemies-to-lovers fantasy romance that will take you on a journey you’ll never forget. This captivating story of a girl with a special gift is perfect for fans of Sarah J. Maas and Jennifer Armentrout!
