The Secret Gift - Bethany Atazadeh - Bog

Jezebel's newfound shapeshifting gift breaks every rule in Jinn.
She's forced to keep it secret or risk having her ability severed, stolen from her completely. Despite the danger, part of her is desperate to embrace her power.
When Jezebel's friends discover a portal to the human world, she follows them into the strange place, unable to resist the temptation to explore her gift where no one will see.
Except someone does. Someone Jezebel thought she could trust.
His betrayal comes in whispers at first. But all too quickly, those whispers become demands. And he'll stop at nothing-not even blackmail-to use Jezebel's power for himself.
One dark decision leads to another, until Jezebel stands to lose something she can't live without-either her freedom, or her innocence.
THE SECRET GIFT is the first book in THE QUEEN'S RISE series, inspired by your favorite fairy tale villains in Snow White, Sleeping Beauty, and Beauty and the Beast. It's a spin-off of The Stolen Kingdom series, but can also be read on its own. Over a century before Queen Jezebel crosses paths with Arie, Rena, and Nesrin, she's just an innocent Jinni girl... who was betrayed.
If you love fairytale retellings like The Lunar Chronicles and supernatural abilities like the Graceling series, then you'll love the Queen's Rise series!
