The Unseelie Heir’s Claim

Courts in Conflict Book 3

by Elisa Rae

Genre: Light Fantasy Romance, Romantasy

The Unseelie throne is in crisis, and the whole Wild Wood is
in an uproar as the hunt is on for the missing heir. Kent is aware of the news,
and even the humans just beyond the borders of fae land have heard rumors. He
didn’t think it had anything to do with him. But then he comes home to a
Dullahan in his mother’s kitchen claiming Kent is the lost heir.

Rue doesn’t belong. Left on the doorstep of the foundling home as a baby, she
only knows she has some fae blood. Now an adult, she hides her differences from
the humans beneath a quiet demeanor. But that doesn’t stop her from seeing
magical things, like a glowing crown on the head of her new friend.

The Unseelie Heir’s Claim is a
light, fantasy romance novella about a relationship between an Unseelie and a
fae of mixed blood. It features a reluctant lost heir, fated mates, and a
romance between a noble and a servant, all played out against a backdrop of the
peril, politics, and uncertainty of the Unseelie Court in crisis.

Kent

The young woman started scrubbing the surface of the table
without a word, almost as though nothing had happened between her and Misha.

“How did you know I was here to speak to the tavern keeper?”
I asked.

She froze and hunched her shoulders.

“I didn’t mention it until a moment ago.”

“I guessed.” She resumed cleaning.

“You must be a very good guesser.”

Some of the tension in her narrow shoulders eased, probably
because she thought I had accepted her explanation.

Opening my magical senses, I detected a slight sensation of
power around her. It felt soft and nebulous. She probably had traces of fae
mixed blood a few generations old. Such wasn’t uncommon. There were quite a few
humans of mixed blood among the humans living right outside the fae realm.

Premonitions were common, which were really just unrealized
magical awarenesses passed down through the generations, were common.
Hereditary magic could manifest in an affinity for animals, plants, or trees. I
once encountered a man who could tell with perfect accuracy where to dig for a
reliable well, which was clearly a latent naiad magic that had survived many
generations of pure human matches.

“People call me Kent.”

She made a final swipe at the tabletop before straightening
and leveling a contemplative stare at my face. “Rue.”

“The plant or the feeling?” I asked.

Her eyebrows rose, which I interpreted as surprise. “The
plant.”

The Fae King’s Labyrinth

Courts in Conflict Book 2

Someone stole Azulin’s true name. Cursed to ride with the
Wild Hunt during each full moon, he is helpless against the Unseelie king’s
will. Over the years, the curse’s grip has strengthened, making Azulin’s magic
difficult to control. Fighting the curse has exhausted his spirit to the point
that he despairs of breaking its hold on him. Then one full moon, the curse
places him in a labyrinth, not a hunt. Perhaps this is his chance, or maybe
just a new form of torture.

Calypso is a shapeshifter who can’t change form. Living as an unpaid caregiver
and laborer in her sister’s household, her presence is barely tolerated in
their insular community. When a strange fae threatens her pregnant sister,
Calypso sacrifices herself. Perhaps an honorable death would give her life
purpose. Instead, she ended up fighting for her life in a pitch-black
labyrinth.

The Fae King’s Labyrinth is a light,
fantasy romance novella about a relationship between a Seelie fae and a mortal
woman. It features fae, found family, fated mates, and a romance between a
noble and a commoner, played out in a perilous maze and an equally dangerous
fae court.

The Unseelie’s Wallflower

Courts in Conflict Book 1

Greyson hides many things from the Unseelie Court when they
invade his estate each autumn for the Wild Hunt. During his required appearance
as host, he is surprised to find a human among the glittering fae. She can see
him even when he is using his stealth magic, which means only one thing—they
are soul mates. Can he protect her amidst the swirl of fae politics and a plot
against her life?

Lyra has grown up among the fae. She has been trained to be the perfect
servant. Then her master brings her to the Unseelie Court event of the year and
demands she demonstrate her skills to nobles. With the promise of freedom as a
motivator, she willingly agrees. Then she realizes her master’s true plan
thanks to the intimidating fae lord hosting the event. Though why he would be
invested in her fate is a mystery.

The Flames Of Soulflare

By La Kayshal

Genre: Dark Paranormal Romantasy

 

 

Synopsis

Dragons fear prophecy, and love may be the final weapon in this dark, multi-POV Romantasy perfect for fans of Fourth Wing and From Blood and Ash.

Feared as the harbinger of doom, Everin Haydon is stolen, broken, and reforged by magic into a living weapon bound to a Dragon Council that calls its tyranny justice.

Across the realms, Lord Tynan, the Demon of Darkness and Chaos, returns. His awakening marks the coming of the three days of darkness, and he tears through realms to reclaim what fate binds to him, the Hell’s Fire Dragon.

But one question remains. If the demon rises, where is the immortal meant to stop him?

As the dragon world waits for divine intervention, Everin must decide whether she remains a weapon or becomes the fate of the realms.

.

Enjoy this peek inside:

His control was precise and deliberate.

“Tariel—” She sucked in a breath, fear slipping into her voice. “What are you doing?”

His lips hovered above hers, so close she could taste the hint of warmth in each breath he released.

“You belong to me,” he whispered, his voice shifting, deepening, curling around her like smoke. His eyes burned brighter, molten gold spilling across the darkness of his gaze. “You always have.”

Everin’s heart thrashed in her chest. Something ancient stared back at her through his eyes—something demanding, something claiming.

She tried to pull away. “You’re frightening me.”

He leaned closer, lips brushing the edge of her jaw. “You love me,” he whispered. “You always have. And you will give yourself to me again.”

His mouth dragged slowly toward hers, teasing, commanding, his breath warm against her parted lips.

“I want you,” he said, low and certain. “I want all of you.”

“No.” Everin gasped, turning her head away as panic surged. “Stop. You’re not—”

His fingers tightened at her neck.

He didn’t stop. The Tariel she loved would have.

“I am yours,” he murmured.

She squeezed her eyes shut. Then her voice broke in a whisper—

“You’re not the Tariel I knew.”

The room fell silent. And everything inside her knew she was right.

Five Unless

By Angie Day

 

(Legends & Shadows Saga, #4)
Publication date: March 24th 2026
Genres: Adult, Romance, Urban Fantasy

In this gripping finale, a clean romantasy where the last safe place falls under siege and love has to survive it all.

Welcome to the final round.

Mara and Kylan can’t be happy. Alec won’t let them. Hunting for energy is getting harder for every Legend. The Shadow mansion feels the hunger. Then Alec returns, not with threats but with force. He seizes the mansion, rips their home away, and everything Mara built with Kylan and their found family fractures instantly. He leaves her one challenge: find the safest place you can.

Driven into hiding, they reach for the one place that might be out of Alec’s reach. Secrets surface. Loyalties bend. Alec will not relent. Mara must decide who to fight and who to save when not everyone can survive.

Expect a fade to black fantasy romance in crisis, finale-level stakes, and a relentless villain in full command. This urban fantasy pushes found-family bonds to the breaking point and intensifies a slow-burn love that refuses to die. Dark, vivid, and built to leave you crying, breathless, and satisfied.

Enjoy this peek inside:

“What he does isn’t your decision,” I hissed at Fiona. “If you’re looking for a fight, you don’t have to go after him.”
Kylan pulled his arms away when he felt me tense.
“Too bad Thayer banned you from playing,” Fiona said, sizing me up and her eyes lingering on my gloves.
I smiled and cracked my knuckles. “You think I answer to Thayer?”
“Mara, don’t,” Derek said.
“Why not?” I asked, pulling off my gloves and settling into a low stance. “I’m feeling a little hungry.”
Fiona’s face paled slightly, even if she tried to hide it. She lowered her stance, ready to accept the challenge we both know she’d lose.
Kylan stepped in front of me and I didn’t budge. He caught my clothed arm, “Stand up.”
I shook off his hand and tried to step around him. He stopped me again with an arm blocking my path.
“If you really need to teach Fiona a lesson, take it outside. You have little eyes here,” Kylan whispered.
I looked around and caught Cassie holding Etta. Those little eyes watched me snarling at Fiona and ready to knock her out. I swallowed. I knew why Cassie didn’t like being here. I knew why she didn’t want her daughter turning into a Shadow.
Right now, I was everything Cassie feared for her little girl.
I stood and stepped back, slowly pulling my gloves back on.
Fiona relaxed, silently debating whether or not she wanted to taunt me more. Nikki would’ve. Most of the other Shadows would’ve if this was a year ago. But things were different now.
For better or worse.
I walked over to her and lifted my hand, now covered by my glove. She hesitated a second before she took it. I shook her hand and smiled, but pulled her closer.
“If you come after my brother like that again, I’ll cut an X on you so big you’ll need a full human to heal you,” I whispered. I tightened my grip. “Got it?”
She leaned back, already smiling. “I missed you.”
It felt a little twisted to grin back at her, but it was automatic. I dropped her hand and felt more at home here than I had in months.

Shaman

A Talisman Series Standalone

by Tam DeRudder Jackson

Genre: Paranormal Romance, Romantasy

.

A druid straddles the
line between light and darkness . . .

Renleigh Rogan keeps to herself in her remote Montana cabin, tending her plants
and honing her protection spells. Only occasionally does she indulge her
shape-shifting abilities… Called to Scotland in the middle of the night to help
heal a rogue warrior, her first instinct is to ignore the summons, but danger
lies in disobeying a powerful goddess.

A rogue is caught in a celestial
tug-o-war . . .

Jamie Lennox gave up the warrior community long ago, voluntarily fighting in
the Morrigan’s rogue army. Cocky, and one of the most accomplished swordsman in
the community, he’s the perfect weapon for taking the warriors the Morrigan
covets most. Yet when he loses a pivotal battle, she turns on him, leaving him
injured and lost in a no-man’s land between good and evil, a place no warrior
or rogue can exist for long. Luckily for him, a beautiful druid has come to his
rescue, even if she’s saving him against her will.

Two people are brought together by a
force they never saw coming . . .

The fact Jaime Lennox looks like a fallen angel has nothing to do with
Renleigh’s decision to come to his aid. His sexy come-ons do not intrigue her
either—not even a little bit. Nor does the mysterious past he hides. While the
two of them spar inside an enchanted cottage in the Highlands, overhead, a
celestial storm is brewing, one that will require each of them to decide what
truly matters—their beliefs about themselves and each other or the truth that
will set their love free.

“Jackson works this
admittedly familiar supernatural romance/urban fantasy terrain (readers of J.R.
Ward’s Black Dagger Brotherhood series, for instance, will feel right at home)
with winning energy, a good ear for dialogue, and a sharp sense of pacing.”

Tam DeRudder Jackson’s love of all things Celtic led her to
write the Talisman Series. Steeped in Celtic mythology, these steamy, fated
mates, paranormal romance adventures are set in the mountains of Tam’s native
Montana and the Highlands of Scotland. Rogue, the most recent book in the
series, was named a best romance of 2022 by the Independent Book Review.

An avid fan of rock music, Tam never misses a chance to see
a live show, especially if it’s Shinedown, one of her favorite bands. Her love
of rock music inspired her contemporary rock star Balefire Series, a sexy fun
ride following the lives and loves of the members of a fictional mega-band.
Readers of this series consistently give the books five-star reviews.

Tam earned her BA in English from Montana State University
and her M.Ed. in literacy from Lesley University. After a short teaching stint
in Bath, England, she settled in the wilds of Wyoming where she taught
adolescents all about the Celts and a bit about writing before she stepped out
of the classroom to pursue her writing career full time.

When she’s not writing, you can find her working her way
through her mountainous TBR piles, alpine skiing, or traveling to some new
place on her ever-expanding bucket list. To stay up to date on her adventures,
