Hood of Secrets by Emily Deady

He was my first love.
But he let his father send me away.
Robin of Lockwood leads a double life. By day, she manages a crumbling forest manor. By night, she commands a secret network of bandits, cyphers, and nobles who protect the persecuted and pass out gold–if they can get their hands on it.
When a manipulative foreign king takes control of her kingdom, the prince who broke her heart long ago shows up on her doorstep. She agrees to work with him, but doing so means tearing open old wounds and risking new feelings. And Robin doesn’t have time to revisit the past when too many people in the present are relying on her.
Prince Ian is desperate, dethroned, and asking for help. He is willing to trade his castle for a campfire if it means saving his family and kingdom. But fighting beside the girl he never forgot shows him just how high a price he paid to uphold his responsibility.
As Gareth tightens his grip on Iseldis, Robin and Ian must unite outlaws, soldiers, and Majis to fight back. But can they unite a kingdom when they cannot bridge the gap between their stubborn hearts?
Hood of Secrets is the long-awaited fifth and final book in the Fairy Tale Royals series. It features a Robin Hood retelling with childhood friends-to-lovers, forced proximity, and a heroine who steals more than gold. If you love slow-burn romance, fantasy adventure, and a bandit queen who answers to no one, this story was written for you.
