Crown of Thorns (Legends and Lovers)

Elin has never believed in the supernatural until one day she defies her mother’s rules to see the sunset from the outside rather than in. She is an adult and what could it hurt, really?

Only that mistake proves everything her mother ever taught her to be true. Gifts she doesn’t fully understand are wanted, and she’d forced on a quest to find the one man who can protect her from those who would use her to their own ends.

Duncan McAllister, a gorgeous fallen angel, with a warded castle, can keep her hidden. Only when she arrives, he makes it crystal clear he doesn’t want her there.

Elin, unwilling to remain with the obstinate man who doesn’t want to help her, inexplicably steps back in time over four hundred years in the past on the day Duncan is to wed another. Though she finally learns what’s her gifts are capable of, in a time when the lord rules all, she must find a way to survive or better, a way back to the present.

Only the servants in the castle believe her to be Duncan’s intended. To save her neck, she must walk down the aisle and marry a man who despises her on sight.

The question remains what he will do when he lifts her veil and finds her not to be the woman he’s supposed to marry.
