The book of the week is....
Winterspell by Claire LegrandThe clock chimes midnight, a curse breaks, and a girl meets a prince . . . but what follows is not all sweetness and sugarplums.
New York City, 1899. Clara Stole, the mayor's ever-proper daughter, leads a double life. Since her mother's murder, she has secretly trained in self-defense with the mysterious Drosselmeyer.
Then, on Christmas Eve, disaster strikes.
Her home is destroyed, her father abducted--by beings distinctly not human. To find him, Clara journeys to the war-ravaged land of Cane.
Her only companion is the dethroned prince Nicholas, bound by a wicked curse.
If they're to survive, Clara has no choice but to trust him, but his haunted eyes burn with secrets--and a need she can't define.
With the dangerous, seductive faery queen Anise hunting them, Clara soon realizes she won't leave Cane unscathed--if she leaves at all.
Inspired by The Nutcracker, Winterspell is a dark, timeless fairy tale about love and war, longing and loneliness, and a girl who must learn to live without fear.
This book looks amazing and sounds like a great read. Winterspell will hit stores on September 30th
