Through the city streets I run as fast as I can in my long white slanted-shoulder dress and high heeled pumps. People stare at me wherever I go, but I don’t know if it’s because of the ridiculously fancy outfit or the because of the way I run.
I’ve never run away from something this fast, never knew my legs could take me as far as they do. I’m going on pure adrenaline right now, and I don’t even know where I’m going, I just know I need to get away. Away from that store, away from Jill.
The shock and horror on her face replays over and over in my mind as my feet take me someplace I’ve never been. A sudden wave of guilt washes over me, because Jill could get punished for letting me go.
I pause for a moment.
Should I go back?
No, I’ve come too far, sacrificed too much to turn back.
The moment I stole that lady’s key and went out that door I made my decision. I need to stick to it, no matter the cost.
I need to get away from him. Easton Van Buren, my husband, my tormentor … But at what price?

The sexy, action-packed first book in the #1 New York Times bestselling Court of Thorns and Roses series from Sarah J. Maas.
When nineteen-year-old huntress Feyre kills a wolf in the woods, a terrifying creature arrives to demand retribution. Dragged to a treacherous magical land she knows about only from legends, Feyre discovers that her captor is not truly a beast, but one of the lethal, immortal faeries who once ruled her world.
At least, he’s not a beast all the time.
As she adapts to her new home, her feelings for the faerie, Tamlin, transform from icy hostility into a fiery passion that burns through every lie she’s been told about the beautiful, dangerous world of the Fae. But something is not right in the faerie lands. An ancient, wicked shadow is growing, and Feyre must find a way to stop it, or doom Tamlin-and his world-forever.
From bestselling author Sarah J. Maas comes a seductive, breathtaking book that blends romance, adventure, and faerie lore into an unforgettable read.
