Author Description

Nine tails. Nine trials. Baek Jiwon, the disabled daughter of an alcoholic, struggles to keep food on the table while her father gambles away the little money she earns. When the day comes for a noble family to honor an ancient agreement to provide the next bride for the Gumiho King, Jiwon finds out that she has been sold by her father and will be sent as a noblewoman's replacement. Jiwon doesn't know what to expect when she arrives in the Mythical Lands, but it certainly isn't a standoffish king trapped by a centuries-old curse. Discovering all the myths are but lies and half-truths, she now holds the fate of a king in her hands. To break his curse, she will have to endure nine trials, but she, too, has her own curse to break, one in which she must face herself or fail the both of them. This new adult/crossover Korean romantasy book is perfect for fans of Sue Lynn Tan's Immortal and Sophie Kim's The God and the Gumiho.
