Book overview
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - A sweeping fantasy about a witch who must navigate a ruthless marriage competition--and try not to fall in love along the way. Part twisting mystery, part thrilling romance, The Weaver Bride is an unputdownable romantasy steeped in a lush magical world.
A SCBWI GOLDEN KITE AWARD FINALIST
Lovett Tamerlane is a silkwitch. Like all girls of her kind, she holds a rare magic--a magic that can be harnessed only through marriage to a Weaver. But finding a Weaver husband requires status, refinement, and money, all of which Lovett sadly lacks. Her one secret ability, to open any door, is her saving grace. Hidden in plain sight, Lovett spends her days using her gift to steal from wealthy families and her nights avoiding the fate imposed on all unwed silkwitches: a life confined to the cloisters.
But opening doors can be dangerous, and when Lovett steals from the wrong person, she finds herself face to face with Eliot Lear, the notorious son of a prominent Weaver. It turns out Eliot's been watching Lovett. He knows she's a silkwitch, and he offers her a life-altering opportunity: entrance to the Vainglory, a competition with the ultimate prize--marriage to No
