Scarred (Never After Series, Book 2) Emily Mclntire

From international bestselling author Emily McIntire comes Scarred, a dark and captivating fractured fairy tale reimagining.

Prince Tristan Faasa, tormented by a scarred past inflicted by his brother Michael, was never meant to rule. Michael, destined for the throne, is responsible for Tristan's pain. As their father dies, Michael is poised to become king, but Tristan, leading a secret rebellion, is determined to usurp him. The arrival of Michael’s betrothed, Lady Sara Beatreaux, thrusts Tristan into a new conflict—one between his ambition for the crown and his unexpected desire for Sara.

Sara’s mission is clear: marry the King and annihilate the Faasa line, risking her life in the process. However, she did not anticipate the Scarred Prince. Tristan is dangerous, forbidden, and one of her targets. As Sara’s resolve wavers, the line between hatred and passion blurs. Amidst unraveling secrets, she is torn between vengeance and her growing feelings for Tristan, the villain she was never supposed to love.

This edition includes minor edits and changes from the original self-published version. Due to mature themes and situations, reader discretion is advised, and full content warnings are available on the author's website.
