About this audiobook

The forest whispers of ancient debts and blood-stained crowns, where the shadows move with a malice that defies the light. In this realm, survival is a game played against the impossible. Elara is a scavenger trapped in the twilight reaches, forced into a desperate alliance with the cold, enigmatic Sovereign of the Unseelie Court. As they navigate a crumbling kingdom, their forced proximity romantasy journey ignites a dangerous spark. Caught between duty and a forbidden desire, Elara finds herself drawn to the very monster she was sworn to destroy. This fae king romance fantasy delivers the perfect blend of high-stakes tension and a delicious fae romance fantasy slow burn. Amidst a ragtag group of outcasts, they discover the strength of a found family romantasy trope that defies the gods themselves. Every touch is a gamble, and every secret threatens to unravel the fragile alliance holding their world together.
