About this listen
Her magic is bound. His secrets are threatening to destroy them both.
Aileana and Xander have accepted the truth about their mating bond. Now, they're working together to free Aileana from the blood magic binding her. Only then can they continue Xander's century-long search for the map.
They soon find out there is no easy solution to their problems. They must journey to the capital, bringing them dangerously close to High King Edgar and his Winged Soldiers in an effort to free her. The earth is calling to Aileana, and time is running out.
When Xander's secrets come back to haunt him, they put everything in jeopardy. His very existence puts them both in danger.
Nothing is going as planned, and before long, the pair is faced with the hardest choice of them all. They can solidify the mating bond—or they can part ways forever.
This Rapunzel retelling is a slow burn, enemies-to-lovers romantic fantasy filled with banter, fated mates, fake marriage, and world-building. Of Wings and Briars is book two in The Ithenmyr Chronicles, which is best enjoyed in order. Moderate steam progresses to a series HEA. This book ends on a cliffhanger.

My father sold me to the Shadow King. Faerie is a completely different world than the one I'm used to. Winged creatures fly in and out of mirrors, and fantastical gardens conceal treacherous illusions. Shadows draw me in a little more for each day my magic grows, but I can't afford to let my guard down. To survive, I must play by the king's rules and protect myself from the nightmares, dreams, and fantasies that govern his seductive realm. Most of all, I must resist him. If I don't, my kingdom will fall.

Story
After a decade of bullying me, the Alpha Heir discovers I'm his predestined mate. But just because he rejects me in front of the whole pack doesn't mean he's going to let me go. When I flee my fated mate, he gives chase. The Alpha Heir would sooner murder me than let me live out of his reach. Only death isn't the end for me. The afterlife is a bit more fiery than I pictured, but that's fine. I'm used to fighting to survive, and literal Hell just might be a step up from what I've been dealing with.

I was fifteen when the Death King came for us. With a mighty black dragon and the ability to command the dead, he raised an army of our fallen soldiers to fight for him—and conquered us in the night. My father, King Laurier of Scorpion Valley, couldn’t stop him. I tried to flee but came face to face with the man in black armor, the man who looked more like a god than a human. Instead of killing me, he chose to show me mercy… but it didn’t feel like mercy. Not when the next ten years of my life are spent as a slave in the Arid Sands, digging for Black Diamonds from sunrise to sunset.
