No Prince Charming to rescue me from a life of torment and punishment.Just four wicked boys with black souls, and dark pasts who are just as trapped as I am.Tarnished Embers is a dark whychoose stepbrother fairytale retelling, where our girl (and the guys) will end up with more than one love interest.
