A cursed human with hatred in her heart. A fae assassin unable to fall in love. And a fate neither of them can escape.

Welcome to Rose Manor, where the only thing worse than being imprisoned in a sentient manor that hates you, is the broody fae assassin who's marked your life. And now your heart.

What makes this dark and gothic romantasy absolutely irresistible:

🗡️True enemies to lovers to...

🗡️Forced proximity

🗡️Torturous slow burn to spicy

🗡️Stabby, cursed 34 year old human FMC

🗡️Shadow daddy fae assassin MMC

🗡️Only one bath (technically there's two...but not according to the MMC. You're welcome.)

🗡️Fated mates who don't know it yet

🗡️A brutal cliffhanger that will make you throw your book across the room

The story:

To escape the sentient manor, Brielle must make someone fall in love with her before her curse renews.

The only problem? No one else has ever been allowed inside Rose Manor…Until now. But the scarred fae assassin who enters isn't just her trueborn enemy.

He's hunting her.

Torn between his duty to the crown and his own obsession, Caderyn bargains with Brielle in exchange for her life.

But her haunted past means that trusting him could lead to something worse than death: Heartbreak.

And Brielle will do anything to ensure she survives Caderyn's charms.

Even if it means denying everything she feels for the secretive fae and his obsessed shadow magic.
