Blind Destiny: Grimm's Circle, Book 7 [retail mobi]
Page 16
They have lovers, Will thought, stunned.
Why had he never considered that? Because he couldn’t bear to consider Iris in the arms of another man, especially when the other man wasn’t her husband? She’d have no say in who she married, but her lover was her choice, and Will was appalled by the upsurge of jealousy that actually made him dizzy. He clung on to the tree to pull himself together, heard the diamonds rustle and tinkle against each other.
He needed to find another boat. Off the path, to his left, was a denser wood. He blended into the glittering, glinting trees and hugged the shore of the lake as closely as he could until he found a small rowboat drawn up onto the beach. Emerging warily, he glanced across the lake. The princesses and their escorts had almost reached the opposite shore. And from this angle, he could see a beautiful, many-turreted castle. That must be their goal.
Will pushed the rowboat into the lake and stepped into the muck at the water’s edge as he clambered into the boat. His shoes splashed into several inches of water. As he dragged on the oars, guiding the craft away from shore, he prayed it wouldn’t sink in the middle of the lake.

Heigh ho, heigh ho, it’s back to hell she goes…
Grimm’s Circle, Book 7
Myrsina knows the stories. As one of the oldest of the Grimm, she had a hand in writing most of them, but only she knows the dark origin of the Seven Bloody Sisters. It springs from the place of her birth—and her death. A place of pain and misery to which she plans to never return. Unless forced.
When Luc appears on her doorstep, her heart twists with suppressed longing for the man who can never be hers. The only man who can make her do the impossible—go home.
Luc may be blind, but through their unique, bittersweet connection, even he can see that the task laid before them is ripping Sina’s soul apart. This time it isn’t as simple as fighting a demon that has escaped from the netherplains.
Sina must go back in time—to that cursed ground—and right a wrong that she unknowingly brought about. To write a new ending to a story that may give them both a chance at happily ever after. Assuming they survive.
Warning: This book contains a not-so-fairy-tale prince, a Snow White who was never very innocent, a lot of bloody fights, some ghosts, and a new sort of angel…
