Daughter of the Pines, by Maria A. Eden
About this book
There could never be a thirteenth Ledes cousin, not when the Devil himself promised to claim them as his own.
The mist-shrouded town of Galloway needs every ounce of protection from the demons lurking in the Barrens. Harper Ledes longs to escape the cursed village her family rules. As the youngest Ledes cousin, she's always been an outcast, despite her noble name.
When two militia officers blackmail her into helping them solve a crime, the secret of Harper's mindspeaking magic is put at risk. Lieutenant Logan Greer's weapons were stolen from right under his nose, and Captain Jacob Miller will do whatever it takes to help him solve the crime. As Harper gets closer to the Barrens-and the men who threaten her-she realizes her life is intimately entangled with forbidden secrets held in the pines.
Now, Harper must save a town she once wished to abandon, even if it means ripping a hole between realms to do it.
Daughter of the Pines is an adult romantic fantasy inspired by one of America's most infamous folktales. An atmospheric, gothic tribute to the Pine Barrens, the story will appeal to fans of Rachel Gillig and Kristen Ciccarelli.
