Publisher's summary

Blood slave to courtier of the Winter fae... you'd think I'd moved up. I'm not so sure.

The auction block awaits, and a vicious vampire prince wants me and what flows through my veins. So I make a run for it, only to end up falling at the feet of a fae warden.

Technically, Roar, the Warden of the West, should return me to the vampire court, but he has other ideas. He needs a fake fiancée.

The deal: if I play his dutiful partner at the Winter Court and help him trick the cold King of Winter, Roar will hide me from the blood-suckers intent on draining the life from me.

I agree, and for a while, it seems like nothing can go wrong. That is until Vale, Warden Roar's nemesis, sets his sights on me. A part of me likes the warrior prince's attention. Luckily, the more sane part knows Prince Vale is not a fae to mess with.

Besides, I can't dissolve my contract with Warden Roar. To do so would bring down the ire of the king and ruin my chances of earning my freedom. So I do my best to keep Roar and Vale from each other's throats, all the while convincing the Winter Court of my love for Roar.

It's official: I'm a part of the deadly game of noble houses, and losing could cost me everything.

If you like the political intrigue of Game of Thrones and the found family aspect and romances of ACOTAR, you'll love this romantic fantasy.

Amazing story horrible performance!

I loved this book it was so good and so worth the read. but I have to emphasize read not audio book. the performance by the narrator was one of the worst I have ever heard. she has a really bad lisp and she forgets the characters voices and get them all mixed up and just really destracting from the amazing story. I am even going to buy the books to put on my self. but don't waste your money on the audio book. If I was the author I would hire a different narrator for the second book because this audio book really hurt the author from getting the recognition she deserves from such a good book.

story & performance was blah

is Roar/Winter Court a Vamp or Fae???? the accent sounds like they are, especially when Prince Gervais part comes up, I get the accent when used on the Vampire Prince Gervais, but for Roar and Clem .... It doesn't make sense to me . and the way she says well when Roar or Clem part comes up is so cringe (it's well not vell!!!)....
And what bugs me is the author can not stick to what to call Prince Vale through out the book. She switches from "The Warrior Bear" to "Prince Vale" like pick one or the other. I mean I get Prince Vale aka "The Warrior Bear" but she mention Prince Vale in one paragraph and literally right after The Warrior Bear....

I didn't think I can do the second after finishing book 1 and noticing how elementary it seems compared to the other authors writing that I have read. Huge NO and wouldn't recommend the book unless that person is 10 or 12
