Dark fantasy where love, magic, and legacy turn dangerous.

★★★★

"I loved this dark twist on the classic fairy tale. The gothic vibe and urban setting work so well together. The romance is intense and a little dangerous exactly how I like it. Couldn't put it down. A unique start to what looks like a great series. Perfect for fans of dark fantasy and slow-burn romance."

"Most fantasy novels spend pages on dry history, but this one just drops you right into the heart of the Gloom. It’s got this eerie, almost organic horror vibe that reminded me of why I fell in love with the genre in the first place... If you like your fantasy with a side of mystery and a heavy dose of what is actually going on here? tension, you’re going to fly through this."
