An imprisoned girl with a special gift is caught in a cruel game of romance and power.
The Godkissed Bride Book One
We still worship the sleeping fae, though their magic only remains within a few of us.
Locked away for ten years, Sabine Darrow’s only friends are animals she communicates with using magic. Now, sold as a bride to a villainous high lord, her greatest fear is trading one prison for another. But a potential escape lies in the form of her beastly yet achingly handsome guard, whose loyalty she is determined to break.
A huntsman with heightened senses, Basten “Wolf” Bowborn has more important things to do than transport his master’s new bride. With ancient creatures reawakening along the kingdom's border wall, he is torn between his duty and his desire to investigate—until a forbidden attraction becomes an unyielding obsession.
Welcome to Astagnon—a kingdom of cruel games and corrupted courts, where the only thing more dangerous than the secrets slumbering underground is falling for the one person you can’t have.

The Godkissed Bride Book Two
Bride. Idol. Betrayer.
Promised to a villainous future king, Sabine once dreamed of forsaking everything for the huntsman who captured her heart. But Wolf’s devastating betrayal locks her in another prison: the sinful court of her betrothed. There, she forges an unexpected alliance with her future husband. He’s ambitious. Handsome. Surprisingly complex. Together, they might save the kingdom of Astagnon from a waking evil—but in harnessing her power, she risks becoming what she most despises.
Huntsman. Fighter. Sinner.
Wolf believed betraying Sabine was the only way to ensure her safety. Now, tormented by the sight of another man’s ring on her finger, his role as her bodyguard keeps him achingly close to the woman he can’t have. To hide Sabine’s dangerous secret even from herself—and to stop a coming war—he ventures to the enemy’s borders. What awaits him is an explosive discovery that thrusts him into a dark past he thought was long buried.
In a dance of danger and desire, it’s more than their lives in peril—it's their hearts at war.
After one thousand years, the sleeping fae are awakening…and chaos will reign.
