Wilder Than Midnight

Silverthorne is a place of secrets and stories. A forest full of twisting paths and tangled thorns. A castle with locked towers and murmurs of tragedy. A village trapped between terrors known and whispered. And something is stirring in the leaves . . .

Saffy is a good girl, tired of being told to stick to the forest paths, and always follow the rules. Aurelia is a hidden girl, locked in a castle tower, dreaming of escaping the fate she's told awaits her. Wild Rose is a fierce girl, raised by wolves, full of spells and fearlessness and cunning.

Together, they will change Silverthorne forever.

“Wildly exciting and wickedly whimsical, this fairytale conjures the purest magic there is: true love. Love for each and every one of us, because of our differences, not in-spite of them. It's a story as warming and as delicious as stolen porridge.”

This story is just the sort I would have loved as a girl - I adored its sparkling words, feisty heroines and spirited narrative as well as its message of loving the body we're born with - pure fairytale magic with so many twists. From the very first turn of the page it swept me under its powerful spell...I would happily have lived there for a hundred years! Jasbinder Bilan
