The third thrilling book in Jodi McAlister's page-turning Valentine series.

Things that happen sometimes when your boyfriend is a magical fairy prince — he gets kidnapped by his older brother and whisked away to fulfil his destiny in their magical fairy kingdom.

But Pearl Linford is not having that. It's time for a rescue mission. Pearl told Finn she was coming to get him, and she's not going to let anyone stand in her way.

But will Finn want to be saved? And should she have listened to all those people who told her he wasn't worth saving?

About the Author

Jodi is an author and academic from Kiama, a seaside holiday town on the south coast of New South Wales. Her PhD was awarded by Macquarie University in 2015, and she is currently a lecturer in Writing and Literature at Deakin University in Melbourne. Her academic work focuses on the history of love, sex, women and girls, popular culture and fiction. It means that reading romance novels and watching The Bachelor is technically work for her. You can find Jodi on Twitter at @JodiMcA, where she tweets regularly about her research, her writing, cool things she finds interesting, her hero worship of Kate Bush, and her slightly-too-intense passion for The Bold and the Beautiful. She is the author of Valentine, Ironheart and Misrule in the Valentine series.
