Fae of Brytwilde

She'll do anything to save her family-even marry a fae and face the dead. Years ago, Elle Blackford's parents made a desperate deal with the fae kingdom of Ashwood. While her mother and sisters reconciled themselves to a future among dangerous immortals, Elle and her father studied forbidden magic, hoping to find a loophole. Until Elle's father died, forcing Elle's sister to marry Prince Fitz, heir of Ashwood. But Elle has a plan to change their fate. She knows that ghosts wander Ashwood Forest until the royal family sends them into the afterlife. Ghosts that can be returned to life, and she's determined to save her father from his premature death. All she needs is powerful magic-magic Prince Fitz possesses. Taking her sister's place, Elle marries Prince Fitz to steal his power. But in a world of bloodthirsty fae and vengeful ghosts, being a mortal comes with constant risks. As Elle navigates a kingdom of monsters and tragic secrets, she realizes she might not survive to save her family. The key to her salvation might be her arrogant, cold husband-the one she'd planned to rob and abandon. If only she can trust him. Pride and Prejudice meets Gothic fae fantasy in this loose retelling, full of plenty of romantic tension (not spice). Immerse yourself in Fae of Brytwilde, a series of standalone fantasy romance novels all set in the same fae world and loosely inspired by Jane Austen's novels.

Sacrificed to the fae, her only hope is to run. But the cruel royals who seek her have never lost their prey. Florentia "Ren" Cantwell has always been an outsider. The townspeople fear her and her unusual silver hair, spreading rumors that she's not entirely human. She's never believed those crafted lies-until a stranger causes her to manifest dangerous winter magic. Determined to be rid of her, Ren's brother casts her beyond their town's borders into the fae land of Silverfrost, leaving her as an offering to the cruel royal family. Ren knows that if the royals come to fetch her, she will face unspeakable horrors. Accepting the help of Garrick Darkgrove, a handsome wolf shifter and fellow loner, she flees the royal hunters in a desperate attempt to reach safety. But all goes wrong one heartbreaking night. The sibling king and queen take Ren to their austere fortress, where she is entangled in a series of deadly trials meant to test her magic and her bloodline. She is a spectacle. A tool. A captive. Forced to navigate a world of torture, manipulation, and demons, Ren knows she can trust no one. Not even Garrick, the man she now understands is forbidden to her. The one that, against her better judgment, she's falling for. She's prepared to pay for her freedom-but when the cost is her heart, the price may be more than she can bear. Loosely inspired by Mansfield Park, enter a Gothic reimagining of Jane Austen's story as you've never seen it before. This standalone fantasy romance is part of the Fae of Brytwilde series, books that each include their own characters and stories and can be enjoyed in any order. It is full of romantic tension, not spice.
