Summary
The Sunday Times and New York Times bestselling Beauty and the Beast Fantasy Romance Retelling

A deadly war.

A stolen princess.

A separation of mates.

A secret unearthed.

War has come to the Enchanted Vale.

The forces of the Below have enacted their evil plan and both the Spring and Summer Realm are now under their influence. Will Autumn and Winter be next?

Rosie and Dayton, High Prince of the Summer Realm, enter a deadly tournament to reclaim the Bow of Radiance and save Summer together. But can they keep fighting their growing feelings for each other?

As the Realms fall prey to the Below’s schemes, Rosie must take her place as the Princess of the Enchanted Vale and fated mate to three of the High Princes.

The fight has only just begun…

The fourth book in the Beasts of the Briar series, a spicy Beauty and the Beast retelling filled with morally grey characters, a sinfully hot villain and a princess who has found her Prince Charming. All four of them.

Critic Reviews

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
