This Year's Best New Fantasy Books Will Fill Your Days With Magic

The "real" world and a magical fantasy world collide in "The Princess of Thornwood Drive" by Khalia Moreau. From the perspective of elder sister Laine, her parents were killed a year ago in a car crash that also left her sister Alyssa nonverbal and paralyzed. When a care center offers to look after Alyssa — for free — Laine agrees. From Alyssa's perspective, however, she's the princess of a magical land, and she was cursed in the forest when her parents were killed. Now, there's a dark prince lurking who takes an interest in the sisters, and while Laine tries to put their "real" lives back together, Alyssa must muster the courage for an epic battle.
