A Ruin of Roses

Deliciously Dark Fairytales #1 / 4 ✓

A Ruin of Roses (Deliciously Dark Fairytales #1) by K.F. Breene
Unrated

A spicy new twist on an old classic - a deliciously dark Beauty and the Beast reimagining.

I could save him, but he would ruin me.

The beast.
The creature that stalks the forbidden wood.
The dragon prince.

He has suffered a fate worse than death. We all have. A curse put upon us by the mad king.

We are a kingdom locked in time. Shifters unable to feel our animals. Stuck here by a deal between the late king and a demon who seeks our destruction.

The only one keeping this kingdom alive is Nyfain, the golden prince to a stolen throne. The last dragon shifter.

He’s our hope.
He’s my nightmare.

When he catches me trespassing in the forbidden wood, he doesn’t punish me with death, as he’s entitled.

He takes me, instead. Forces me back to the castle as his prisoner. Seeks to use me.

Apparently, I can save him. I can save the whole forgotten kingdom, locked away by the demon king’s power.

But it would mean taming the monster beneath his skin. It would mean giving myself to him.

It would mean my ruin.

K.F. Breene

K.F. Breene

K.F. Breene’s books are an invitation to step into worlds where the boundaries between magic and reality blur, creating realms brimming with adventure, heart, and unforgettable characters. With an impressive catalog of paranormal romance, urban fantasy, and fantasy novels, Breene has captivated readers with her ability to blend humor, supernatural thrills, and deep emotional connections into captivating stories.

A self-made author who has sold millions of books, Breene's writing journey began in 2013 when she independently published her first novel. This leap into self-publishing quickly garnered attention, and she soon found herself among the bestsellers on platforms like Amazon. Known for her distinctive voice, Breene crafts stories where magic is real, and the stakes are high—but she never forgets to ground her characters in relatable, heartfelt moments.

Her Demigods of San Francisco series set the tone for her career, seamlessly fusing the mythological with the modern. Her passion for taking readers on exhilarating rides through mystical worlds is only matched by her wit and deep understanding of human emotions. Leveling Up, Breene’s Paranormal Women’s Fiction series, was a bold venture that paired magical adventures with themes of self-discovery and second chances, resonating particularly with readers who see magic in everyday life.

K.F. Breene’s work isn’t just about fantasy—it’s about creating connections. Whether through the fiery determination of her protagonists or the quirky, magic-infused landscapes they navigate, her books create lasting impressions. Fans who read Breene know they’re in for humor, high stakes, and a touch of romance, all wrapped up in a uniquely engaging narrative.

When she’s not writing, Breene can be found sipping wine and planning her next literary shenanigan. Living in Northern California with her husband, children, and a somewhat unused treadmill, she balances her literary career with the everyday chaos of family life—always with a little bit of magic on the side.
