SHOW ME YOUR DARKNESS, AND I'LL SHOW YOU MINE. *THE STARS ARE FADING. *THE SHADOWS ARE CALLING. *THE DARKNESS THREATENS EVERYTHING. ANOTHER PRETTY CAGE. Whisked away to the Fire Court, Scarlett Monrhoe finds herself in the hands of the man who killed her mother. The Prince of Fire. Thrust amongst the Fae court she loathes, she is at their mercy. She doesn't know what plans he has for her, but she has plans of her own. She just hasn't decided how thoroughly she wants to break him yet. If only he didn't tempt her with every breath, every touch, every kiss. It's another dangerous game that has her wondering if she will be the one irreparably broken in the end. ANOTHER DANGEROUS GAME. The Fae Queen has plans of her own. She's determined to get to Scarlett in any way she can, and that includes using a mortal prince that followed the lost Fae princess across the border. Crown Prince Callan is desperate to get Scarlett back from the Fire Prince and return to Baylorin. The question is, what is he willing to sacrifice for the Wraith he loves who's trailed by shadows? ANOTHER RACE AGAINST TIME. Every day that passes, Lord Tyndell and Mikale get closer to finding where she is hidden in the Fire Court. Every day that passes puts those Scarlett left behind in more danger. Every day that passes, more secrets are revealed. Truth has been buried in history that has long-since been rewritten, but in order to separate facts from lies, they will be forced to cross other borders and seek answers from kingdoms far more terrifying than the Fire Court. Lady of Shadows is a new adult dark fantasy and romance novel. It's a slow-burn, enemies-to-lovers troupe. It may have triggers of love-hate themes, sexual scenes (both consensual and non), violence, and jealous/possessive themes. Fans of Sarah J. Maas, Jennifer L. Armentrout, and Leigh Bardugo will fall in love with this series.

    In a world ruled by the cruel and merciless Stars, Elara has been cursed by fate. A prophecy promises she will fall for a Star, but that it will kill them both. So when Ariete, Star of Wrath, War and Chaos, descends to wreak havoc on Elara’s kingdom, she flees her home—the Kingdom of Night—for the neighbouring Helios, Kingdom of Light. And strides straight into the arms of an enemy prince. Fearing that Ariete might turn his sights to Helios next, Prince Lorenzo is forced to train Elara as a weapon—one worthy of battling against the tyrannical reign of the Stars. But there are shadows even within the Kingdom of Light—and they threaten to reveal the darkness in Lorenzo’s past and the ancient magic that slumbers in Elara’s veins. And with it all comes an undeniable, star-crossed pull between Elara and Lorenzo that neither can seem to resist...

    Intrappolati dal destino, divisi dal tradimento. Alla Bloodwing Academy, il sangue è potere. Ma il fuoco di un drago è una minaccia che nemmeno il vampiro più forte può arginare. Dopo aver risvegliato il feroce Nyxaris dal suo sonno maledetto, Medra Pendragon è diventata il centro di un gioco pericoloso. Tutte le Casate la bramano, pronte a sfruttare la sua eredità di cavaliere. Peccato che quel potere le sfugga di mano, costringendola a fingere, mentire e a spingersi sempre oltre… perché un unico errore potrebbe annientarla. E poi c’è Blake Drakharrow, il vampiro che avrebbe dovuto proteggerla e che invece l’ha incatenata a sé con l’inganno. Il loro sangue è ormai intrecciato: lei è la sua unica fonte di sostentamento, e lui non vuole lasciarla andare. Il loro legame, nato dalla violenza, è diventato imprescindibile: un’intimità forzata fatta di controllo e scontri continui, in cui odio e attrazione si confondono fino a diventare indistinguibili. Eppure, Blake non è solo il mostro che Medra vorrebbe vedere: dietro la facciata algida e crudele, si nasconde qualcuno capace di proteggerla in silenzio. A Bloodwing, però, anche la più piccola debolezza si paga e ogni legame ha un prezzo. Mentre il drago si agita nell’ombra e le tensioni tra le Casate si fanno sempre più violente, Medra capisce che il vero pericolo non è il potere che custodisce, ma proprio ciò che la unisce a Blake: un vincolo che potrebbe salvarli entrambi… o distruggerli.

I didn't count on my three 6'5 roommates. Covered in tattoos, jeweled, and horned, these are like no men I've ever dealt with before. They don't think I belong. They don't think I'm strong enough for war. They don't think I can fight. I'm about to prove them wrong. The only problem, can I survive them discovering the secrets of my past? In the battle for life and death, everyone is so much more than they seem. Jax, Ascher, and Cobra are going to be devastated when they discover my truth...just wait until they see my shifted form.

    Others: Overwhelmingly positive

    I've always loved fairytales. I never imagined I'd actually be in one. When my father wanders into the enchanted realm of the fae, I know I have to go after him. And when he gets imprisoned, I'll do anything to save him... Even trade my freedom for his. I had no idea I'd end up imprisoned by four fae princes who turn into beasts at night. I have to win my freedom, and that means making a bargain with them. They must find their mates in order to break the curse. If I can help them do that, they'll set me free. Sounds simple, right? It's not. Because against my better judgment, I'm starting to fall for these beastly princes. One is smart and sweet, the other mysterious and deadly, another flirty and confident, and the last prince... He's handsome, strong, has a wicked temper, and is dead-set against breaking the curse. Why does he want to keep me here forever? But it's not just my freedom on the line. If I don't break the princes' curse soon, all the magic in the Enchanted Vale will be stolen by the evil—and stupidly hot—Prince of Thorns. And I'm not letting my princes stay cursed. Not after I've fallen in love with them.
