They found him. The forgotten prince. The one who's died 2,587 times alone.
Oren Wildthorn was supposed to be dead. Erased from history. Forgotten by everyone-including the four princes who once called him brother.
But Briar Rose Thorne needs him. Without the fifth bond, the anchors caging her Thorn Corruption will fail. She'll lose herself to the darkness. And her four cursed princes will have to watch her become the monster they fought so hard to prevent.
There's just one problem: Oren doesn't want to be saved.
Three hundred years of dying every seven days. Three hundred years of resurrection agony. Three hundred years of being abandoned by the people he loved.
He's bitter. He's broken. And he has absolutely no reason to trust the strangers who claim to be his family.
But the death curse is accelerating. The Covenant is closing in. And time is running out for all of them.
Briar will have to earn his trust. Her princes will have to prove they won't abandon him again. And Oren will have to decide if revenge is worth more than the family he thought he'd lost forever.
Because the five-bond isn't complete until all five souls are bound.
And without it, they all burn...
MASSIVE CLIFFHANGER WARNING
This book ends on a cliffhanger that will make you immediately need Book 5. Briar's heart stops. Caspian holds her spirit in death limbo. The princes have 24 hours to complete the soul bonds or lose her forever. DO NOT START unless you're ready to binge straight into ROSES AT MIDNIGHT.
