What to expect

A Beauty and the Beast Fantasy Romance Retelling

A curse that must be broken.

A human longing for home.

Four yearning fae princes.

A villain in the shadows.

Rosalina O’Connell has been exiled from the fae realm and sent back to Orca Cove, against her wishes. Betrayed by her own mate, Prince Keldarion of the Winter Realm. But nothing will stop her from returning to her true home.

When Rosie manages to tap into the magic of Castletree, and make contact with Prince Ezryn of the Spring Realm, she begs him to rescue her.

But when Rosie returns to the Enchanted Vale, she and the princes discover that there is a frost attacking the Autumn Realm. If Rosie can’t figure out how to stop it, war will be declared in the Enchanted Vale.

Can Rosie unearth the magic inside herself and save her princes and the Autumn realm?

Critics Review

Praise for Bonded by Thorns:

‘My newest fantasy escape! Bonded By Thorns is a sweeping introduction to an enchanted fae world brimming with magic, mystery, and romance. Elizabeth Helen expertly combine fractured fairytales and beloved romantasy tropes to craft a compelling story with great characters’

Emily Rath, USA Today bestselling author of North is the Night

‘Fun, scorching hot, and absolutely ADDICTIVE. I am obsessed with this series’

Elizabeth May, #1 Sunday Times Bestselling author of The Falconer series

‘Enchanted fae, a sexy villain, and morally grey men all wrapped up in the why-choose fantasy romance of your dreams. Beasts of Briar is the perfect series for romantasy lovers everywhere. I’m hungry for more!’

Clio Evans, author of Cosmic Kiss

‘Bonded by Thorns is a fairytale for grown-ups sinking its thorns into your heart and refusing to let go. It’s a wild, beautiful ride with steam that drips off the pages. Elizabeth Helen weaves a story where the “why choose” romance is a complex braid of roses, that’ll have you thirsty for every last drop of love, even as the thorn pricks make you bleed. Prepare to be hooked until the very last word — and then left fiending for the next instalment’

Lexi Esme, author of Threads of Fate

‘Elizabeth Helen’s Bonded By Thorns takes Beauty and the Beast and turns it on its heels. This innovative blend of beloved romantasy tropes paired with a steamy romance featuring not one, but four princes, is now my favorite way to experience the fairy tale classic’

Frankie Diane Mallis, author of Daughter of the Drowned Empire
