Into the Fiery Woods by Riley Taylor

On Lady Guinevere’s twentieth birthday, she shall be wed to the elderly Lord Arthur, and she doesn’t even know. When Prince Stark discovers this, he knows he must save his beloved. They’ve not been allowed to speak one word to one another since they turned thirteen, but consequences be damned, he finds a way to meet with her. However, the plans they made in those fleeting secret meetings are disrupted when Gwen arrives at his bedchamber in the dead of night, covered in blood. Fleeing the castle, they travel to the dangerous Land of Flames, a lawless land governed by the magic of an ancient mage, long since dead, hoping to find safety from his father on its outskirts. Upon arrival, they uncover a dark conspiracy, and embark on a mission to save the kingdom from the king’s treacherous knights. The fate of all in Ailon rests upon their shoulders, and with their closest allies, they must risk everything to prevent the fall of the kingdom. Into the Fiery Woods is a romantic, queer, and dark fantasy that follows a group of determined young people fighting to save their kingdom from peril, but also, to reshape it for the better.
