The next thing she knows, she’s transported to a world outside DC, a castle in summer surrounded by winter, musical instruments that play themselves, and a prince that claims to need her help. When she sees a girl being kidnapped by a man whilst on a job, she can’t help but get involved and throws herself at the man with her crowbar even if it does little to stop him. Her mother is now bedridden with cancer and Harper herself left feeling weak with her cerebral palsy in her leg, her role is to be a look out for her brother and nothing more. and it will take more than a broken curse to save Harper, Rhen, and his people from utter ruin.Harper hasn’t had it easy, her father ran away after he got involved with a group he owed money too, leaving the debt and danger to her family and her brother left doing the dirty work for those who threaten them. But powerful forces are standing against Emberfall.
And as Rhen realizes Harper is not just another girl to charm, his hope comes flooding back. But as she spends time with Rhen in this enchanted land, she begins to understand what's at stake. A prince? A monster? A curse? Harper doesn't know where she is or what to believe. But when she tries to save someone else on the streets of Washington, DC, she's instead somehow sucked into Rhen's cursed world. With her father long gone, her mother dying, and her brother barely holding their family together while constantly underestimating her because of her cerebral palsy, she learned to be tough enough to survive. That was before he destroyed his castle, his family, and every last shred of hope. But that was before he learned that at the end of each autumn, he would turn into a vicious beast hell-bent on destruction. Cursed by a powerful enchantress to repeat the autumn of his eighteenth year over and over, he knew he could be saved if a girl fell for him. It once seemed so easy to Prince Rhen, the heir to Emberfall.
