Briars of Summer: A Dark Fae Reverse Harem Romance (The Thornwood Legacy Book 3)

Five cursed princes. One corrupted Thorn. A ritual that could save them all—or destroy everything.

Briar Rose Thorne survived bonding with four princes, but the transformation into fae is tearing her apart. Memories disappear. Humanity fades. And the corruption caged inside her is breaking free.

When the fifth prince—Oren Wildthorn, the phoenix cursed to die every seven days—finally joins their bond, Briar gains the power to break all five curses simultaneously. But the ritual requires death. Resurrection. And a level of trust she's not sure any of them possess.

As the corruption turns Briar into the weapon everyone feared, the five princes must make an impossible choice: let her sacrifice herself to save them, or die together and hope love is strong enough to bring them all back.

Because the ancient fae courts designed Thorn Witches to be sacrifices. And Briar is running out of time to prove them wrong.
