Court of Vice and Death
The stories about the fae court were true and I'm not sure if any of us will survive. Everything in the fae court wants me dead. The monsters who live here, the royal family, even the other tributes. I'm surrounded by enemies but I won't forget the cause of all this suffering: The Fae King. If I'm going down, I'm going to take him with me. But nothing is easy in Konos. And the only way through is to face the most dangerous monster who ever lived. With surprising allies and newfound skills, I might have a chance. But you can't trust anything in Konos. Not even your own heart. This is book two in the Blood and Salt series and is not a standalone. It's dark, violent, and spicy. Mind the cliff.
Kingdom of Blood and Salt
An epic enemies-to-lovers fantasy romance perfect for fans of Jennifer L. Armentrout, Raven Kennedy, and Sarah J Maas. After spending years training to defend my people from our enemies, I never expected that my enemy would be the one keeping me alive. Athos is the last human city. A treaty with the Fae keeps the fae, the vampires, and the wolf shifters at bay, while we fight against the dragons at our border. Being a human in this world is dangerous and we all make sacrifices to survive. When the delegation sent by the Fae King arrives to claim the human tributes required by our treaty, I never expected to forge a connection with their leader. Ryvin is as dangerous as he is handsome. I know he's my enemy, and I know I'm supposed to hate him, but with each passing day, he's more difficult to resist. But things are changing in Athos. Humans no longer want to bend to the Fae King. Alliances blur and centuries of lies begin to unravel. And I'm faced with a choice. No matter how much I
Crown of Stars and Fate
Alliances shift, rules change, and loyalty is tested. Nothing will ever be the same. I knew my life would change when I traveled to Athos. I wanted to help my people, save the tributes, and make my family proud. Instead, I discovered more secrets and lies and saw my people destroyed in front of me. And then I face the greatest betrayal yet. Unsure of who I can trust, but in need of allies, I set out on my most dangerous quest yet. The fae king must be destroyed in order for Athos to be free. But the king isn't our only threat. The gods themselves are angry and Nyx has promised retribution. If we fail, humanity is lost. But then again, I'm not exactly human.
