Legacy of Avalon

Join the Trials. Fake a Romance. Kill the King.

Ex-assassin Syn Malleore hates kings. The last one poisoned her sister, leaving her to slowly die. Now that the monarchy has fallen, Syn can finally leave London and return to the Fey realm to search for a magic relic to cure her sister. But the Fey nobility are already plotting to restore the crown. In a hidden court where aristocrats fight to the death, brutal trials will decide who takes the throne--and who will fills the next open grave.

Syn’s mission is simple: infiltrate the trials, steal a magic relic for her sister, and destroy any chance of a new tyrant rising. But nothing is simple in the Fey court. Especially when Rion du Lac is involved. He's a lethally seductive warlord cloaked in power and secrets. Soon, Rion uncovers Syn’s artifice—and forces her into a dangerous bargain: pretend to be his lover to survive the trials and win the crowd’s favor. In a court built on power and control, one misstep means execution.

But the greatest risk isn’t the trials. It’s him--and the way he pulls her in closer with every lie she tells.
