Perfect for you if...

  • You love slow-burn romance with genuine tension and chemistry that builds across the story, not just surface attraction.
  • You're drawn to morally grey characters who feel complex and conflicted rather than purely villainous or heroic.
  • You want high stakes that matter: rebellion, court intrigue, magic with real consequences, and a relationship that has something to lose.

Maybe not for you if...

  • You prefer fast-paced plots where romance takes a back seat; this book prioritises the relationship development alongside the political intrigue.
  • You need your romantic leads to be straightforwardly good or evil; the moral ambiguity here may frustrate you.
  • You're looking for a standalone; this is book one of a completed series and ends on threads that continue.

About this book

Emelin lives in a quiet human village and knows the dangers of forbidden magic. When she makes a mistake, she is captured by Creon, a legendary fae assassin called the Silent Death. Rather than kill her, he offers her a bargain: she must come to the Crimson Court, the center of fae power, and pose as his lover to survive in a realm where humans are treated as prey. Emelin soon discovers that Creon is far more complex than she anticipated. He seems to understand her thoughts, protects her instinctively, and his attention affects her in ways she did not expect. As rebellion grows within the court, Emelin becomes entangled in a web of deception and secrets where trust is dangerous and every connection carries risk. Creon may need her magic to challenge the queen's rule, but allowing herself to trust him threatens not only her life but also her heart. Court of Blood and Bindings is the first book in the completed Fae Isles series. It features an enemies-to-lovers romance and contains content intended for 18+ readers.
