Rival families that control the social media and have the power with stones (diamonds, quartz, etc). The bottom line is a Romeo and Juliet story of Thorn and Alana. Throw in a serial killer and attempted rape and drugs and there is a lot going on. Must admit the stone thing confused me a bit, and ended up skimming at times, but did like the controversial romance and such. Guessed the killer almost from the beginning, as he was always there, but otherwise enjoyed this one and would recommend it. Would be fun to see more with his brother and one of her friends.
One Cursed Rose by R. Zanetti, published by Kensington Books, is the first book in the Grimm Bargain Series.
And the book starts off right wild.
Alana is the heir to the family business. Undermined by competitors, her father has given her to a potentially ally to marry her.
Alana is a strong feisty heroine and she's driven by revenge on a timeline. Timeline being one week til the wedding.
In comes Thorn, her biggest competitor and soon fiancé to be.
A beauty/beasty-ish story well written, complex, unputdownable. 4,5 fantastic stars.
