Enter the lush, dangerous Wilds where a human girl gets embroiled in the plot of a savage wildling, as they race to claim a throne and save both their worlds.
Carve their hearts. Take their power.
"No one alive remembers when the Wilds appeared. They were simply there, dense forests that consumed most of the human world. Full of beasts, and full of them…"
Val is a survivor. As a child she somehow survived the Wilds surrounding Seattle, and every day she survives reentering the Wilds' depths, carving magic-filled heart gems from the beasts within.
Then one day she wanders too far, and Rune finds her.
He’s a wildling, more savage and beautiful than any beast, and he has a deal for her: Val will use her unique, hidden magic to help him take the unclaimed high throne of the Wilds.
In return, Rune will let her carve the heart gems of his enemies, something there’s no shortage of. Enough heart gems to cure Val’s sick guardian and buy them both a better life.
Val agrees, though she knows she can’t trust him. Knows he has secret plans that will only hurt her.
But as they fight for the throne and a new danger threatens both the human world and the Wilds, Rune—cruel, kind, broken Rune—might be the only one she can trust.
Even if she can’t, she’ll still get the power she wants.
After all, there’s more than one way to lose a heart.
If you enjoy epic, YA dark contemporary fantasy like The Cruel Prince and A Curse So Dark and Lonely, with morally gray characters, a lush fantasy world, and a savage enemies-to-lovers romance, then you'll love The Savage Wilds series.
Genre: Young Adult Fantasy
