About this listen

A Court of Thorns and Roses meets The Bachelorette in this new, exciting fantasy romance!

Eight Fae fight for my hand in marriage. They're willing to kill for it. But if they discover my secret, my future husband might kill me too.

The King of Brookmere has decreed his daughter is to marry—which means, despite my protests, he's enacted an archaic tradition, summoning powerful Fae from across the land to compete for my hand in marriage. And more importantly, the throne.

Eight fae will fight in the deadly trials, braving formidable magic and each other to prove themselves worthy of the crown. Including the arrogant, shadow-wielding Kade Blackthorn, who arrived out of nowhere and appears to have far more abilities than he should. In truth, all I've ever wanted is for someone to love me for who I am, despite my secrets. An ally. An equal.

While one of the contenders might become my husband, a trusted friend is the last title any of them can win. These men are willing to do anything for power. If they discover my secret, that I'm an heir with no magic, then we're all doomed.

Blooms of Darkness is the first book of the Broken Prophecy series, a slow-burn, new adult romantasy. Listeners are encouraged to use discretion when diving into this enemies-to-lovers, shadow-daddy romance.

Contains exclusive bonus scenes.
