Prince of Then

A wounded fae prince. A human healer whose kisses restore his waning power. The beginning of an ancient curse. Holly O'Bannon wants nothing more than to heal her ailing mother and to live a simple village life. But fate has other plans-such as sending her through a portal to die at the hands of the broody fae prince who thinks she's a sorceress from another realm. Gadriel Fionbharr, the Prince of Five, fears he'll never find his fated mate, the girl who'll subdue the curse burning through his blood and restore his kingdom to its former glory. Wounded far from home, he captures a human girl, and instead of acting on his first violent impulse, he forces her to help him. Little does he know, he now holds his mate at his mercy-inside a one-bed cottage, deep in the woods of Faery. Prince of Then tells the tale of the first Black Blood Prince. The events happen nine hundred fae years prior to book 1, Prince of Never. This full-length prequel can be read first, last, or anywhere in between. First is ideal.
