A human, a fae warrior, and the wicked Unseelie king walk into a bar. Just kidding. There is no bar. But there is a quest to find a missing queen. And tension. Lots of tension.
When she and her love, Rowan, went to the Unseelie Court, Gwyndolin only intended to ask the Unseelie king to stop his fae from attacking the humans and Seelie fae. She did not intend for him to insert himself into their quest to find the high queen. But who can say no to the wicked High King Aspen? He takes what he wants, and he doesn’t care who he hurts in the process.
His magic may be useful, but his arrogant, flirtatious attitude may cause a rift between her and Rowan. She hates Aspen, and he seems to only want to antagonize her. So, why does it seem like there’s something else he’s hiding? And will it threaten everything when she finds out?

This novella was initially released in the Romancing the Rogue: Falling for the Bad Boy Villain anthology, now with two more chapters, character art, and bonus scenes! While this book is shorter, the rest of the series will be full-length novels.
Let’s start off by saying I got this ebook through NetGalley, this is a novella audio book, and it was a very quick read, it was released in a collection last year
First things first this one had very little to no spice…I will be figuring out a spice rating for future book reviews soon
I had a couple spots near the beginning were I wondered if it wasn’t the first in the series but I’m pretty sure it is. just the coming into it like your in the middle of something but that happens sometimes and you quickly get your bearings.
I could see some similarities to acotar in the fae structures but it definitely is its own design.
And from what I read of the description there wasn’t supposed to be world building but I definitely felt like there was. I finished it wanting more so that’s always a good sign.
There were some twists..one I kinda saw coming one I definitely did not see coming. I love both being right and being thrown lol especially in the same book!
overall I wold definitely recommend
