Books On Our Radar: The Wish Granter
(Ravenspire #2) by C.J. Redwine
The Wish Granter could easily be a cover crush selection, as I am absolutely in love with this cover! The embroidery aesthetic is so damn cute and I can envision the final cover being embossed and shiny! The Wish Granter is the second book in the Ravenspire series by C.J. Redwine, and can be read as a standalone. According to Redwine, in this book we are getting another set of characters and a different fairy tale retold to us, all set in the same world and adjoining kingdoms. Everyone I know who has read The Shadow Queen, absolutely loved it and now I am even more excited to read both of these books! The Wish Granter is releasing on February 14th, 2017; so there is plenty of time to check out The Shadow Queen which is on sale for a limited time for only $2.99 (at the time of this posting)!

An epic, romantic, and action-packed fantasy inspired by the tale of Rumpelstiltskin, about a bastard princess who must take on an evil fae to save her brother’s soul, from C. J. Redwine, the New York Times bestselling author of The Shadow Queen. Perfect for fans of Graceling and the Lunar Chronicles.
The world has turned upside down for Thad and Ari Glavan, the bastard twins of Súndraille’s king. Their mother was murdered. The royal family died mysteriously. And now Thad sits on the throne of a kingdom whose streets are suddenly overrun with violence he can’t stop.
Growing up ignored by the nobility, Ari never wanted to be a proper princess. And when Thad suddenly starts training Ari to take his place, she realizes that her brother’s ascension to the throne wasn’t fate. It was the work of a Wish Granter named Alistair Teague who tricked Thad into wishing away both the safety of his people and his soul in exchange for the crown.
So Ari recruits the help of Thad’s enigmatic new weapons master, Sebastian Vaughn, to teach her how to fight Teague. With secret ties to Teague’s criminal empire, Sebastian might just hold the key to discovering Alistair’s weaknesses, saving Ari’s brother—and herself.
But Teague is ruthless and more than ready to destroy anyone who dares stand in his way—and now he has his sights set on the princess. And if Ari can’t outwit him, she’ll lose Sebastian, her brother…and her soul.
