A human girl with a troubled past. A fae prince from a stolen kingdom. When he whisks her away to the fae realm, there is no going back to her old life. Under the rule of a captivating queen, the kingdom of Fargelsi has brought the three fae lands to the brink of war. And now that same queen has her eyes set on a new pawn - a human girl. Allied with the usurper king, the royals seek to overthrow all those who oppose their unmatched power. Unmatched - until Brea Robinson arrives and proves to be more than they bargained for.

Brea Robinson is a princess. Ridiculous, right? She’s left her small Ohio town behind for an exotic palace beyond her imagination, trading old jeans for ballgowns and a drunken father for two Fae mothers. Safe behind the power of Eldur, it’s easy to forget everything that brought her here.

The moment Griffin crossed into the prison realm, every fae he’d ever known forgot he existed. Left with nothing - not even his magic - he’s had to survive in a land of eternal darkness where a ruthless king terrorizes his subjects. Now, he must return to his homeland with one purpose - destroy the magic binding the dark fae to the prison realm - or suffer the consequences. But he isn’t alone.

Brea Robinson is a prisoner. Granted, her prison has gilded halls, servants, and an aunt intent on throwing a lavish wedding. A wedding for Brea. Fae marriages are unbreakable, everlasting. As Brea barrels toward her forever prison in a marriage to a man she doesn’t love, the three Fae kingdoms are thrown into turmoil. But no matter how close Queen Regan’s enemies get, it won’t be enough to save Brea from the fate she chose.

Tia O’Shea just wants to go home, back to the palace among snowy fields where her twin brother amplifies the power inside her, and her father tries to secure the future of the throne through her marriage. A marriage she doesn’t want and refuses to consider. As a future queen, Tia only wants a choice in this one part of her life.

Brea Robinson is a murderer. That’s what everyone tells her when she’s accused of killing her best friend. Her mother always claimed she belonged in a straitjacket. Turns out, she was right. When the man with flashing violet eyes whisks her through a portal into a world beyond her imagination, a world vicious in its beauty and wicked in its lies, Brea begins to wonder if she was ever crazy at all. Every hallucination she’s ever had is real, but this new world has its own set of lies and questions.

With a sentient tail and cat-like eyes, Gulliver O’Shea has always been different, and everyone can see it. Except for his best friend, the queen of Iskalt. She treats him like he matters. So, when she says jump, he flies. And when she asks him to travel through a portal to a strange human city and gather information on a dangerous group attacking fae, he…reluctantly realizes he has no choice.

A traitor in search of redemption. A king’s champion on a mission. He wants to free his people, but she’s determined he’ll never succeed. The moment Griffin crossed into the prison realm, every fae he’d ever known forgot he existed. Left with nothing - not even his magic - he’s had to survive in a land of eternal darkness where a ruthless king terrorizes his subjects. Now, he must return to his homeland with one purpose - destroy the magic binding the Dark Fae to the prison realm - or suffer the consequences.

Tia O’Shea is beginning to lose hope. Hope that she’ll ever say goodbye to the foreign wastelands of Lenya. Hope that she’ll ever see her brother again. With a new king on the throne of Vondur, she is no longer a prisoner, but that doesn’t mean she is free.

Tia O’Shea just wants to go home, back to the palace among snowy fields where her twin brother amplifies the power inside her, and her father tries to secure the future of the throne through her marriage. A marriage she doesn’t want and refuses to consider. As a future queen, Tia only wants a choice in this one part of her life. On the night of the ball to introduce all possible suitors for her hand, she escapes to the human realm, planning to return after everyone has come to their senses. She never expected anyone to follow her, let alone her best friend and two of her suitors.

Griffin O’Shea is trapped. Again. His prison sentence was supposed to end when the magic keeping the dark fae captive in Myrkur finally fell. But when King Egan’s army clashed with the armies of Iskalt and Fargelsi on the battlefield, there was no winner and no clear path forward. Now the dark fae king is missing, vanished without a trace of the army at his back or the abducted child leading him to the prize he desires. With no way to locate the forever moving village, Griffin can only set his sights on a more attainable goal: saving Eldur from the coming invasion.

Griffin O’Shea is forgotten. Maybe it’s a good thing no one outside the prison realm remembers everything he did to earn his place in the dark kingdom. Now that he’s back in the world of the Light Fae, he wants to earn their trust, their loyalty, and that means going after the missing prince and princess of Iskalt, children who call him uncle. It means searching through the human realm for a vanishing village only he can see and a book full of dangerous magic and devious secrets that are better left alone.

Don’t trust the humans. It’s a new sentiment among the fae. For most of his life, the few humans he’s known have been like family. So how does their entire world want those like Gullie destroyed?

Alienated by everything that sets him apart, Aidan McBrien suffers in silence. He is the most powerful Immortal of his generation, but he chooses to live behind a mask to protect himself, even from those he loves. They can never know how much he struggles just to get through each day, overwhelmed by the pain and loss of everyone around him. As Aidan fights a constant battle to control the gifts that threaten to push him over the edge, he dreads the day his world will look to him to fulfill a prophecy he doesn’t believe in.

Tia O’Shea is finally going home. It’s all she’s wanted since her arrival in the strange land, and yet, leaving Lenya feels like abandoning her heart and the one who holds it. But all of Lenya is in danger.
