A Throne in Bloom Stars (The Thorned Sigil Book 1) by J. K. Ross [Signed Bookplate + Swag-Special Edition]

When Elle Hawthorne inherits her grandmother's Victorian estate, she doesn't expect to fall through a crack in reality.

Trapped in dying Wynmire, Elle bears the Root-marks her grandmother once carried—golden vines spreading across her skin with uncontrollable power. Every faction wants to use her to save or dominate the realm. Her only protection: Kaelren, the failed prince whose corrupted body bears the scars of trying to claim her power. As Elle's marks spread and her humanity dissolves, she must choose: become destiny's weapon, or forge her own path, even if it costs everything. Dark romantic fantasy where Alice in Wonderland meets The Cruel Prince.
