Description
If you were, by your own assessment, a fairly average-looking girl; unremarkable in pretty much every way, how would you react if a stunningly attractive stranger suddenly appeared to have an inexplicable interest in you? Confused. Flattered, perhaps. Suspicious, definitely. After all, that kind of thing only happens in fairytales. What someone as confident and alluring as Ash Fairfax can see in art student, Sorrow Calder, is beyond her. His subtle persistence has Sorrow spellbound, but torn; her best friend, Charlotte, has a thing for him. So Sorrow does her best to avoid him, finding a welcome distraction in the company of charming Daniel Sweeney. Despite Sorrow's efforts to forget Ash, their fates are seemingly intertwined and when Ash's disturbingly beautiful friend, Izzie, enters the picture, Sorrow soon discovers there is something about them that is fundamentally different...something more than just superior aesthetics. And then there's Sorrow's dream guy - the guy she keeps seeing in her dreams, that is. Enigmatic and handsome, who is the shadowy Thorn, and why do her dreams always seem so real? These questions are answered when, abruptly plucked from her own world and thrust into another, Sorrow suddenly finds herself a pawn in the political intrigues and bloodthirsty battles of a beautiful, mythical world she never knew existed. Slowly she unravels the mystery of Ash's true origins and along the way, discovers with surprise that it is not Ash, but she herself who presents the greatest enigma.
