Faint Hearted – by Leia Stone & Julie Hall
Book 2 in the Cursed Fae series

She was never meant to break the curse.
But fate doesn’t care who’s ready.

When the Summer Court princess fails to end the century-old curse destroying Faerie, the burden falls on Aribella, princess of the Fall Court. Her only hope lies deep in the deadly realm of Ethereum—and in the heart of one of its dark, merciless lords.

Thrown into a dungeon the moment she arrives, Aribella finds herself a prisoner of the scarred and brutal Ethereum lord who should be her executioner. He keeps her alive only as long as she’s useful—but Aribella holds a secret that could change everything.

To save her people, she must survive this treacherous land. To win, she may have to give her heart to the enemy. And if she fails, Faerie falls with her.
