Claimed by Shadow and Blood

Claimed by Shadow and Blood is a royal fae romantasy that includes betrayal, morally gray characters, enemies-to-lovers, a magical pulsing tattoo, a bridal competition, political intrigue, who did this to you, and touch her and unalive.

Sometimes the truth gets buried, and love digs the grave. I thought surviving the ruthless fae bridal competition would be my hardest challenge. I was wrong. Chosen by Vad—the dark, dangerously possessive Prince of Shadows—to stand at his side, I’ve become the prime target in a kingdom built on lies and blood. Rivals would rather see me buried than crowned. Then I wake with a dagger in my hands...and the King’s blood on my skin. Framed for his murder, I’m thrown into the dungeons, where pain is currency and every shadow whispers betrayal. The council demands my execution. My enemies close in. And I begin to question everyone... especially myself. But Vad doesn’t let go of what’s his. Freeing me means defying the very laws that hold his kingdom together. If he fails, I die. If I fail, the crown—and the man who would rather burn the world than have another at his side—will fall into the hands of someone who wants to destroy it. In a world where every choice bleeds, survival isn’t just about staying alive. It’s about deciding who’s worth killing for.
