The Rose Bargain by Sasha Peyton Smith is a young adult romantic fantasy novel published by HarperCollins Publishers. Set in an alternate England ruled by an immortal fae queen, the story begins in a world where every citizen is granted one magical bargain, but each wish comes with a painful cost.

Ivy Benton enters her debut season knowing that high society girls are expected to trade something precious for beauty, talent, or social advantage. When a competition is announced to win the heart of Prince Bram, the queen’s fae son, Ivy sees a chance to save her family from ruin and free her sister from the consequences of a destructive bargain.

Behind the glittering courtship and magical deals, the story reveals darker secrets, dangerous ambition, and a plot that could threaten everything Ivy is trying to protect. It is well suited for teen and young adult readers who enjoy romantasy, fae politics, court intrigue, rivalry, and high-stakes emotional fantasy.
