Don't get frostbitten while reading this dark, gripping, passionate retelling of Snow White. Icelyn, the princess of the Winter Realm, is being used as a tether to unite the Winter and Summer Realms in an upcoming war. As a woman, she is seen as nothing more than chattel instead of the strong warrior she truly is. She longs to prove her worth to her father and people, but how do you accomplish that if never given a chance? When Icelyn's powers continue to strengthen, her evil stepmother decides that marrying her off may not be enough to rid the thorn in her side and takes a more drastic approach. For Icelyn, there is danger around every corner; even the mirrors have ears. To complicate matters, Icelyn learns that she is the fated mate of the King of the Night Realm, a wicked and unseelie fae that will do anything to claim what is rightfully his... When he comes to collect her, her entire world is turned upside down. Her fate was questionable in the Winter Realm, but how will she ever survive in a court of nightmares and ruin? *** She was mine, and it was about time they learned that. I have sat by idly for years, knowing she belonged to me, and yet, I did nothing about it. I did not want a mate, they were a weakness I could not afford, but now they were trying to join her with another, and there was no way I would allow that. "Ready or not, my little snowflake, here I come."

"Take me instead." I said with no hesitation. I felt my father's cold fingers wrap around mine through the steel bars. "Belle, no." He was cut off by another body rattling coughing fit. I don't know how I knew, but the man hidden in the shadows softened somehow, thinking over my proposition. "You would...take his place?" Papa yelled out more protest, but I ignored them for now. "If I did...would you let him go?" "Yes..but you would have to stay here forever." I bowed my head, my mahogany waves come forward as a curtain to hide the shame written on my face. Forever?...Was I really willing to give up my freedom to a man who I just met? "You have my word." I heard myself say "Done." He sneered as he dragged my father by his shirt collar, leading him up the stairs and out of the damp dungeon.

Anyway, I've decided to change it. This time, it's a picture by Ms. Annie Leibovitz for her Disney-inspired photoshoot featuring celebrities. I think in this new cover, it's Michael Phelps who got the tail. I don't own the photo at all. =)
