    --


    After fleeing from everything I knew and loved, and hiding in plain sight in a deceitful court, I am now faced with Lorian’s truth.

    He is no mercenary . . .

    He is known as the Bloodthirsty Prince.

    His reign of terror has left a trail of blood across this continent. A trail that intertwines with my own past – not even my parents were spared from his merciless slaughter.

    But, to save my brother’s life, I agreed to another bargain with the fae prince. Now, I’m forced to work with him. Forced to travel to the fae lands.

    There are no lines I won’t cross to protect the people I love.

    So, I’ll manipulate, blackmail and deceive potential allies. I’ll bury my shattered heart and cooperate with the fae to prepare for the coming war.

    Because I now know that there are creatures far more monstrous than the fae.

    And some of them masquerade as men . . .

    Tropes/Themes:

    1. Politics and scheming
    2. Characters
    3. Found family
    4. Romance and some smut
    5. Magic
