After spending my entire life avoiding the creatures that murdered my parents, one stupid mistake binds me to them for four years.
My penance? Become a human shadow at the infamous Evermore Academy, finishing school for the Seelie and Unseelie Fae courts.
All I want is to keep a low profile, but day one, I make an enemy of the most powerful Fae in the academy.
The Winter Prince is arrogant, cruel, and apparently also my Fae keeper. Meaning I’m in for months of torture.
But it only gets worse. Something dark and terrible looms over the academy. Humans are dying, ancient vendettas are resurfacing, and the courts are more bloodthirsty than ever.
What can one mortal girl do in a world full of gorgeous monsters?
Fight back with everything I have—and try not to fall in love in the process.
If you love reading about fated mates, enemies-to-lovers, snarky heroines, and everything Fae, then one click today and fall into this magical new series that's being called Vampire Academy meets The Cruel Prince!
P.S. This full-length story may leave you with a book hangover.
P.P.S. This Upper YA/NA series will eventually be four books and is intended for mature audiences. It contains cursing, sexual situations, and violence.
I am a sucker for academy tropes. My favorite trope when I read primarily YA was academy tropes. Well, imagine my excitement when I found out I could read adult academy books! There are some that have been let downs, and some that excel beyond what I could have ever hoped (Zodiac academy anyone?). This book falls somewhere in the middle and more towards excelling.
Fae in this universe are not kind to humans. They are conniving and harsh, and often bullies, especially towards the main character. In the world of Evermore Academy, the Fae world slammed into the United States and overtook a huge chunk. On the outskirts there is tainted land that is full of dark magic, and in result many humans are becoming Darklings. The problem? Fae are vulnerable towards these Darklings, so they require human shields, also known as shadows. These human shields go to evermore Academy to learn how to protect their assigned Fae from the Darklings. Most of the humans that go to the academy are trained from birth, but not Summer. Summer is forced to go after stealing Neverapples from the Winter Prince.
The Winter Prince is your typical brooding dark haired, gorgeous male in these series (but I'm not complaining!). Summer is your typical kind, sassy heroine. Do you see where I'm going with this? Despite the cliché romance, it is really a good book. The premise is exciting, and I pretty much love the majority of Fae books that I have read. I am already 75% through the sequel if that tells you anything about how much I am enjoying this series.
