Book 1: King of the Unblessed
Are you looking for an adult version of Labyrinth with a much better ending? Then Merrick is waiting for you.
He was once heir to everything good. Now he rules as the king of necessary evil, trapped between the Blessed kingdom of his estranged brother and the ruthless King Lucien of the Damned who wants his soul. Before darkness wins, he craves one last taste of happiness, and then a mortal woman wanders into his world and becomes an obsession he cannot control.
Lady Juliana of Bellemare wanted adventure. She did not expect the shadows to answer. When her fiancé is murdered and the village children vanish, she crosses into an immortal realm ruled by a dangerous, seductive king who offers her a bargain she cannot refuse.
Surrender to him — or die.
King of the Unblessed is enemies-to-lovers at its absolute finest, wrapped in lush high fantasy with morally gray heroes, trickster kings, fated mates, and a heroine who refuses to be anyone’s prize without a fight. Readers have called it a must-read and come back to it again and again. I believe them because I wrote Merrick, and I still think about him.
Perfect for fans of: Sarah J. Maas, A Court of Thorns and Roses, Jennifer L. Armentrout, Laura Thalassa, Labyrinth, morally gray kings, dark high fantasy romance, enemies-to-lovers romantasy, goblin king romance, spicy fantasy romance.
