Publisher Description
Have you ever heard of the old Celtic legends of the Fae - beautiful, magical, deadly and a love of messing with humans just for kicks and giggles?
Welcome to my world.
What started out as a strange assignment, leads to one of the most gruesome murder mysteries of our times and my friends and I are set and determined to find out who is killing off Fae and Witches alike.
Couple of problems in the way – I hate the Fae and the Prince of the Dark Fae is bound and determined that I work for him. He’s a rude, overbearing egotistical ass with a compulsive need to possess, dominate and control me. Oh – did I mention that he is absolutely sex-on-a-stick gorgeous and he makes me feel things that I never ever wanted to feel for a Fae…every time he touches me or looks at me with those golden eyes seems to pull me further in under his spell, despite my better judgment.
My friends and I can’t trust anyone and nothing is as it seems on the surface – not even me.

Customer Reviews
A good intro to the series
In what I’m assuming is an intro to a series, this books starts out a little slow. It picks up and has a very familiar Amelia feel to it. Syn is a curious character as we find out what she is as the book progresses. Ryder is even more curious because he is more than what he appears and that’s not a good thing. But if he was good would we be interested in reading? Get to reading!
How do people enjoy this.
This is a victim porn/rape fantasy. Consent is not a thing in this book. So if you’re into that, go right on ahead.
I was masochistic enough to read half of this book before I couldn’t take it anymore.
The main character is naive, frumpy, a pushover, and spouts cringey dialogue constantly. Despite all of this, we’re supposed to believe she’s this incredibly intelligent assassin/witch/thief. Also she’s not exactly breaking any boundaries in the diversity department. She’s a platinum blonde bimbo with blue eyes and, authors words, double D size breasts. Very cookie cutter. Minimal diversity in the side characters too.
Her “love interest” (who I was convinced was the villain for the longest time) constantly violates her and she does nothing about it other than telling him she hates him and continuing to obey him without trying to fight back or find a way out of her situation.
Grammatical errors are common, characters are very one note.
If you’re into this type of story, that’s fine, but for some people who are sensitive to topics of rape and emotional abuse, this is not the book for you.
Meh
If I had an option for 3.5 I would've chosen 3.5. It was a good story and the next sounds intriguing but some of it just dragged.
