The Fire Tree L E Frost

Orphaned at a young age and raised by an abusive grandmother, Aidan is forced to flee the Inquisitor's Guard who are searching for the Chosen, a girl with a unique birthmark, one just like hers. With nowhere to hide, she must run away into Darkling Woods. No one in their right mind ever went into Darkling. Demons and monsters hunted the woods, and it was said The Devil's Tree lived there. Together with her friend Griffin, they flee into Darkling where they are attacked by half-human creatures created by Darkling's ruler, a madman obsessed with the Tree's magic to bring his beloved sister back from the dead. They are rescued by a mysterious lady who tells Aidan the truth about the ancient and mystical Tree. "When the one that is foretold picks the bloom of the Tree, darkness will be driven from the world." To her shock and horror, Aidan discovers she is the one destined to pick the flower. Hunted by the madman and his nightmare creations Aidan and Griffin must fight their way across Darkling to the Tree. If she falters in her destiny, the forces of darkness will consume her and everyone she loves will be lost.
