The Fractured Crown Trilogy

When Briar's sister falls deathly ill, she ventures into the forest seeking a cure from a creature she is certain doesn't exist. But the Forest King is terrifyingly real and he's been expecting her.

Twenty-five years ago, a desperate mother traded her unborn child for her own life. Now Eliam has come to collect and he'll break his new pet the way he breaks them all, with exquisite cruelty and patient hands.

Bound by forest magic and ancient laws, Briar becomes the Forest King's captive. But in his shadow-filled halls, survival becomes seduction, defiance becomes desire, and the connection between them deepens with every touch, every cruel game, until neither can tell where possession ends and need begins.

As Briar navigates the treacherous fae court, where every smile hides a lie and every kindness has a price, she must decide if the growing bond between her and her captor is real, or simply another fae trick meant to break her. Because in the Forest Court, love and cruelty are often the same thing.

Dark, sensual, and wickedly romantic, A KISS SO CRUEL is perfect for those who love Sarah J. Maas, Jennifer L. Armentrout, and Carissa Broadbent.
