Wuthering Heights meets The Cruel Prince in this epic love story woven with fae magic and wild nature. Rose has spent her life being told cautionary tales about faeries and mists and moons and those who stray on to the moors after dark. But she can't resist the call of the Crag's wild beauty, and anyway, she doesn't believe in magic. Until she meets Hawkbit - a beautiful, mysterious boy who appears at their door one night as if from nowhere. Rose and Hawkbit form an instant bond, and Rose soon finds herself drawn deeper into the misty wildness at the edge of the moors where Hawkbit seems to belong. Here a new world opens up to Rose - one that makes her question everything. But as forces try to tear them apart, will Rose finally listen to their warnings, or will her pull towards Hawkbit end up pulling her into danger? - An epic love story woven with fae magic and wild nature, this is perfect for fans of Adalyn Grace, Brigid Kemmerer and the Bronte sisters and taps into the romantasy and classic-retelling trends. - Loosely inspired by the author's love of WUTHERING HEIGHTS, and the thought experiment of 'what would happen if it turned out that Heathcliff's lost years were spent in the land of the fae?', this is publishing shortly after the highly anticipated 2026 movie starring Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi.

- Debut author Elle Hughes offers a fresh take which will appeal to fans of both fantasy and literary romance. Her lush descriptions and immersive world-building will transport readers to the misty moors, and beyond to the dark dance of the fae, as two teenagers unravel their connection to tthe magical world, and to each other.
