In the peculiar town of Fairfold, humans and fae live side-by-side. At the heart of the woods lies a glass coffin, where a horned fairy prince has slumbered for generations. Hazel and her brother Ben were once enamored with him as children. But when the prince suddenly awakens, Hazel is swept up in a whirlwind of new love, shifting loyalties, and the sting of betrayal. As the boundaries between the human and fairy worlds begin to crumble, Hazel must decide how far she'll go to protect the fragile peace - and the boy she once adored.
