Sometimes the truth gets buried, and love digs the grave. I thought surviving the ruthless fae bridal competition would be my hardest challenge. I was wrong. Chosen by Vad—the dark, dangerously possessive Prince of Shadows—to stand at his side, I’ve become the prime target in a kingdom built on lies and blood. Rivals would rather see me buried than crowned. Then I wake with a dagger in my hands...and the King’s blood on my skin. Framed for his murder, I’m thrown into the dungeons, where pain is currency and every shadow whispers betrayal. The council demands my execution. My enemies close in. And I begin to question everyone... especially myself. But Vad doesn’t let go of what’s his. Freeing me means defying the very laws that hold his kingdom together. If he fails, I die. If I fail, the crown—and the man who would rather burn the world than have another at his side—will fall into the hands of someone who wants to destroy it. In a world where every choice bleeds, survival isn’t just about staying alive. It’s about deciding who’s worth killing for.

Stolen from Earth, Fated to be His Ruin. Taken from Earth and thrust into a ruthless bridal competition in a fae realm, I’m forced to fight for a crown I don’t want in order to survive. Vad, the dark, sexy, powerful heir of the Shadow Fae Kingdom, is doing the one thing he never wanted—searching for a bride. But I don't fit in here, and the top contestants want me dead as soon as I arrive. Bound by Fated magic and trapped in a deadly game, Vad’s every cold glance and harsh words remind me that he doesn’t want me, and I sure as hell don’t want him. Yet there’s no denying the sparks between us, and the way his touch ignites something in me I can’t control. As the contest grows more dangerous, all I can focus on is survival which becomes harder and seems to be slipping through my grasp. But I won't go out without a fight... even if it kills me sooner.
