Мы должны быть соблазнительны. Мы созданы, чтобы заманивать людей в свои сети. Фортуна Суорн — последняя в своем роде. Ее брат исчез два года назад, и она осталась одна — ни семьи, ни других представителей ее вида. Фортуна скрывается среди людей, днем работая в баре, а ночью пытаясь отыскать брата. Дни идут один за другим… до появления в ее жизни могущественного фейри. Он не скрывает, что желает ее, и предлагает сделку, от которой невозможно отказаться. И вот Фортуна неохотно расстается со своей размеренной, безопасной жизнью, чтобы шагнуть в мир магии и загадочных существ. Но вскоре становится очевидно, что на кону не только ее…

We were meant to be seductive. We were designed to lure humans in.

Fortuna Sworn is the last of her kind.

Her brother disappeared two years ago, leaving her with no family or species to speak of. She hides among humans, spending her days working at a bar and her nights searching for him. The bleak pattern goes on and on... until she catches the eye of a powerful faerie.

He makes no attempt to hide that he desires Fortuna. And in exchange for her, he offers something irresistible. So Fortuna reluctantly leaves her safe existence behind to step back into a world of creatures and power.

It soon becomes clear that she may not have bargained with her heart, but her very life.

Every child had a monster in their closet. Not every child opened the door and slaughtered it.

To protect the ones she loves, Fortuna has left behind everything familiar and dear.

She can't let down her guard. She can't rest. She can't stop moving. Not if she doesn't want her ever-growing abilities to be used as a catalyst for a monster's entrance into the world.

After everything she's been through, Fortuna thought she knew death. She believed herself well-acquainted with betrayal. Then, in her determination to keep surviving, she stumbles upon one more secret. One more answer to a question she’s been asking for over a decade.

One more truth that might actually succeed in completely shattering her.

"Monster, monster, come out to play. Monster, monster, I've been waiting all day."

In the space of a single day, everything Fortuna thought she knew was exposed as lies and illusion. Alliances have shifted and roles are forever changed.

And she now finds herself a prisoner in the Seelie Court.

It is here that Fortuna learns the board for this game is even bigger than she believed. New players emerge from the shadows and the stakes are higher than ever before. There's no time for pain or healing-just survival.

At least, that's what Fortuna thinks. Then the game leads her to an opponent who doesn't fight with magic or swords. An opponent that not even she can beat.

It turns out she didn't know the meaning of fear... until now.

TRIGGER WARNING: This novel contains scenes or themes of torture, slavery, and PTSD.

I pushed myself up and stumbled away. But the memory followed me like a bad feeling. It found its way through the shabby mental wall I’d erected. Within seconds, it filled my skull again.

Fortuna has made one too many sacrifices to protect the ones she loves.

She no longer knows how to go about her day-to-day life like she’s normal. Like she’s not utterly destroyed. Just a glimpse of Ian O’Connell’s face causes panic attacks, and Collith isn’t much help, considering he’s fighting demons of his own.

Amongst so much inner turmoil, Fortuna’s abilities are still changing. However weak she feels, she knows she’s getting stronger. Fortuna does her best to hide it from other Fallen, because in the world of monsters, strength will get you killed. Well, that and unpredictable panic attacks.

Unfortunately for Fortuna, it’s when you’re most vulnerable that enemies—new and old—like to come out of the woodwork…

TRIGGER WARNING: This novel contains scenes or themes of PTSD, sexual assault, and rape.

Fortuna's entire life has changed.She has no idea how to balance her new responsibilities and who she used to be. There are hundreds of faeries in her head, her brother seems to have lost touch with reality, and a werewolf won't leave her side. Maybe the utter lack of control is why her abilities seem to be changing as well.Then there's Collith-enigmatic, beautiful, and infuriating. He's not only a king of the faeries she despises so much, but he's also her mate. And his gentle pursuit causes confusion in her normally unwavering relationship with Oliver.As a result of it all, Fortuna now finds herself surrounded by new enemies, as well as ones from her past. The question isn't whether she is strong enough to make change in such a corrupt court; it's whether she will survive long enough to do it.

"Before I met you, I thought Nightmares were creatures of pain and darkness. Why, then, are you constantly seeking freedom and light?" Fortuna's entire life has changed. She has no idea how to balance her new responsibilities and who she used to be.

Charlotte Travesty lives in a world of comfort. Glittering nightclubs, a lavish mansion, and a staff of humans at her beck and call. Being a royal vampire means her future is secured—all she has to do is get through the Awakening, an ancient ceremony every vampire experiences when they come of age.

But when her Awakening arrives at last, everything changes in one terrifying instant.

Cast from her home and rejected by the royal family, Charlie is forced into a life of fear and brutality. Where creatures called weepers live below the city, kept at bay by an unlucky sector of fighters enslaved by the very king who cast her out. Charlie now finds herself among the ranks.

She soon learns that weepers aren’t all she needs to fear in her new life. Other workers are dying in the tunnels below ground. Charlie knows that if she’s going to survive, she must form alliances with the very humans that despise her. But will she win their trust in time? Or will she die in the very darkness she was born to rule?
