A curse only she can break. A love that will save the realm

When Neara’s dying father is abducted by faeries, she bargains with Drayce, a dark faerie cursed with the appearance of a beast.

To win her father’s freedom, she must join Drayce on a dangerous quest to find three powerful magical artifacts.

As Neara is drawn further into Dracye’s spell, she finds it impossible to resist the seductive creature beneath his monstrous exterior, but their burgeoning relationship stalls when they discover a plan to release an ancient evil and enslave the mortal world.

Now, Neara must break Drayce's curse to help him fight the evil, but the cost of doing so is her Father’s life.

Torn between saving the human realm and saving her father, Neara must navigate a treacherous world of dark magic, mythical creatures, and retain her humanity, even if Drayce awakens something within her.

Curse of the Fae King is book one of an enemies-to-lovers romance with intrigues and betrayals, dizzying plot twists, a vivid world of Celtic mythology, and a strong female heroine. Perfect for fans of Sarah J. Maas and Holly Black!

Why is my book different?
3 Stars
Why is my book different?
I have this same book by the same author with a different title and a different cover. (See the attached photo.)This version ... "Curse of the Fae King" ... was copyrighted in 2020. The version I have ... "Curse of the Fae Queen" ... was copyrighted in 2019.As far as I can tell, it's the same book, word for word, chapter for chapter.I'm curious to know why the author put the same book out with a different cover and title a year after the original version. I'm not suggesting anything nefarious. I'm just genuinely curious.For what it's worth, my version has the better cover. The girl is a kick-ass beauty. I'm happy I got it before it disappeared from the market.

I really liked this book. I finished it in one day because it was so good! I can't wait to read the next one in the series!

The kind of stuff you can expect:
Betrayal
Enemies to lovers
Plot twists!
Heartbreak. 💔
Dark fantasy
Fae
Beauty and athe Beast retelling
Spice 😏

The characters Neara and Drayce were written well and you could really feel their emotions and struggles.

The world building I really enjoyed! It really sucked me in and I felt.it was different enough from other similar kinds of books to be very intriguing.

I highly recommend this book to dark fantasy and steamy romance lovers! I hope to see more from this author soon!! 🥰

This story was different and kept me interested. There was a few misspellings and I felt a little more world building with a little more background story in a few places could have made the story more.
Either way it had good characters, plenty of action,, all types of fae, evil, good and romance. A good read.

This was a very good series start. I really loved the twists and turns. This is very YA. (Fade to black) The romance between King and Naera is so cute. I really want them to be happy forever! They had great chemistry. I read this book in a day and never got bored. I need to see her achieve her full potential in the next book!
New possible bookbf coming up! All hail King Salamender!

3.0 out of 5 stars Just didn’t quite believe the romance
Reviewed in the United States on May 17, 2021
Verified Purchase
This book was good, and I am happy to go onto the next one, it’s just that the romance is not at all what is driving my interest.

I didn’t feel the oh-so-strong pull of a soulmate bond. I didn’t even honestly believe that they loved each other. It just felt so sudden and forced. In my head, this book took place over what, a week? Something like that?

That being said, I enjoyed the story itself. I especially enjoyed the fact that the sex scene was so glazed over. Too many books, especially Fae Romance, become all about these crazy sex scenes and lose sight of their plot.

I hope that book 2 is stronger, but all in all this was not a bad start.

The characters were so interesting and strong in their own ways and Neara has been hiding all her life she knows that she has magic and skills in herbal medicine but her father has been struck with a curse and her town was invaded and so many were killed and she knew that they were looking for her but hid and didn’t understand why he would be after her? Dracyce has orders to find her and her father to bring them back to the Queen but he has his hands full with her and she fights with all she has she knows about fairies become she has been able to see them when no one else has she knows that they cause trouble with their magic and spells, but Neara will be put through a race and fight that will change her life and new ways that she will have to access but will be surprised that she has an Ali

5.0 out of 5 stars Fae of Nightmares
Reviewed in the United States on June 28, 2020

This was sooo good!!! Theres a lot of deceit and trickery and underhandedness that make up this story. The world is fantastic and terrible. The creatures and fae that inhabit this world are scary, cruel. She has built in mythology that is very unique, I've never heard of or read of before. There is a dangerous quest that is just done so good, you swear it's you doing these things. I know this review is nowhere near what I wish to convey but I would implore you to read this. It is outstanding and chock full of the creepy fae you've only glimpsed at in old folklore tales. This also has the feel of a old world gothic within. There's a fair bit of violence but done well. This has to be one of the best books I've read all year. You've got to check this out. I absolutely cannot wait for the next book as we get to travel to the other courts. I loved both Drayce and Neara, they are both fearsome characters. Go get this!!!!

I really liked the story, I just wish parts were more fleshed out. The relationship between the 2 main characters should have developed a bit differently or at least developed more fully. . . it seemed rushed and not very fleshed out. Still an enjoyable tale, and I'm planning on reading the rest of the series.

Even if this book may look like the classic romance fantasy it's not all it is, far from it. The author has created an original adventure story and seems to have an extent knowledge about fairy lore. Her fairies are changing and dangerous, faithful to ancient folk tales' fairies.

Wow, this book was completely different from what I expected, and in a good way! The storyline was amazing and the world building is both fantastical and unique. There creatures in this world are spine-chillingly scary and the fae are particularly cruel. I’m also impressed with the way the author manages to weave ancient faerie mythology into this imaginative and unique world. The hero and heroine go on a dangerous quest which is full of violence and unexpected twists and turns. This storyline is action packed and intriguing. I absolutely devoured this book and can’t wait to read book 2. If you love fantasy novels and a big fan of a Sarah J Maas style books, then this book is definitely for you!
