About this ebook

The #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Crimson Moth (published as Heartless Hunter in North America) weaves an epic love story of a magical girl, the boy she left behind, and a deadly curse.

'Lush, dark, and romantic. I could have remained lost in the woods forever' Isabel Ibañez, #1 New York Times bestselling author of What the River Knows

No matter how far she runs, the forest always comes for Emeline Lark, haunting her with its mysterious disappearances and its tales of fae magic.

When her grandfather goes missing, Emeline is forced to venture into the woods to save him. There, Hawthorne Fell, a handsome and brooding tithe collector, brutally tries to dissuade her from searching, even as a magnetic spark ignites between them.

Undeterred, Emeline enters the court of the fabled Wood King and makes a deal: her voice for her grandfather’s freedom. Little does she know, she’s stumbled into a curse that threatens the very existence of this eerie world she’s now trapped in. To survive, she’ll need to team up with the fiery yet secretive Hawthorne. If she fails, she’ll lose everything she holds dear.

Devastating and romantic, in Kristen Ciccarelli’s A Dark Forgetting, everything has a cost.

'Darkly gorgeous and moving... full of curses and fae magic that will capture your heart and wrap it in thorns before setting you free again, forever changed' Evelyn Skye, New York Times bestselling author of The Crown's Game

Originally published in hardcover as Edgewood.
