by L.C. Hibbett 
Add to your (Goodreads) shelf 

Synopsis

Beauty is a beast...  

Izzy doesn't suffer fools and she doesn't take prisoners, so when one of the local mobs takes her father captive, she'll stop at nothing to free him. Even if that means taking on the mysterious men of Blackwood Forest herself.

But when Izzy enters the lair of the beasts, she discovers saving her father isn't as simple as it seemed, and saving herself from Alexander Blackwood and his pack is going to be even harder...

The Poison Court Saga is a collection of standalone urban fantasy fairy tale retellings with a reverse harem twist. The novels are set in L.C. Hibbett's Wicked Witch universe and each novel tells the backstory of a different secondary character from the Wicked Witch's series. Catch up with the characters from this novel again in Wicked Destiny (release date October 2017). 

Recommended reading age: 18+ due to scenes and language of an adult nature.

My eyes widened and my mouth fell open, but the reflection in the mirror remained still and calm. I lifted my hand slowly; the girl in the glass didn't move a muscle. I squinted at the glossy surface and took a tentative step forward.
