Liv Zander's new dark fantasy romance, complete with feather edge design, map, and chapter header artwork on both paperback variations!

More treacherous than war... are the battles within a heart.

Perched between branches and shadows,
We watch, we scheme,
Fighting for a kingdom forgotten and forlorn.

Until we rip her away with our claws,
Our prisoner, our pawn, our plaything.

She’s innocent and pure,
Fragile and helpless…
…but oh so guilty by blood.

She calls us beasts,
Wicked and evil,
Vicious and cruel.

We are all that and worse.

One of us offers her shelter beneath his wings,
Whispering promises of pleasure,
Seeking redemption.

The other longs to shatter her into a million pieces,
Whispering promises of pain,
Seeking revenge.

Caught between our feathers,
She endures our deranged desires,
Our secrets, our lies,
Our twisted plans.

Will she surrender to our darkness,
or fight for a destiny growing ever elusive?

Welcome to the Court of Ravens, little white dove.

Feathers so Vicious is a full-length dark fantasy romance novel, and book one in the Court of Ravens duet. The two-part story features two morally gray raven shifters, a young woman at the mercy of their shadows, and a HEA. This world contains dark elements, violence, and themes some may find disturbing. Readers can find more detailed information on www.livzander.com. What this book doesn't contain is a hero - because villains do it better. And two do it better than one…

Liv Zander

Liv Zander has always been drawn to the darker corners of fantasy, where villains are as magnetic as the heroes they oppose. Her obsession with sexy anti-heroes and flawed, captivating characters has fueled a literary journey that blends sultry romance with unapologetic grit. For Liv, writing isn’t just a passion—it’s a rebellion. She crafts stories where love isn’t always sweet, and the men are just as likely to set the world on fire as they are to save it.

Born in Germany and currently living somewhere between reality and fantasy, Liv's journey into writing started in the most unlikely of ways. She’d been an avid reader all her life, but it wasn’t until she found herself in therapy (because of a very real love for morally ambiguous men) that the first seeds of her dark romance novels were planted. Who knew that a little therapy could turn into King of Flesh and Bone—the book that started her career in 2022 and took the fantasy romance world by storm?

Her work is a blend of obsession, danger, and sizzling passion. In The Pale Court Duet, Liv invited readers into a realm where power, desire, and pain are always intertwined. With Feathers So Vicious and Shadows So Cruel, she spun a tale of raven shifters and twisted fates that captivated her ever-growing audience.

What makes Liv Zander's work stand out isn’t just her love for the bad boys of fantasy; it's her ability to create worlds where the stakes are impossibly high, where the characters’ darkest impulses are both their strength and their curse. She doesn’t shy away from the complications of love and power, letting her characters burn and rebuild in the same breath.

When she’s not building fantastical realms or devising her next dark romance, Liv can be found procrastinating in her office with a cup of coffee (or wine—depending on the hour), contemplating the things she loves most: skulls, ravens, and, of course, her problematic love for sexy villains. Her humor and unapologetic passion shine through every book, creating a world where readers can lose themselves in the chaos, knowing they’ll be equally terrified and charmed by the heroes they can’t help but root for.

Liv Zander writes for those who aren’t afraid to dive into the darkness and emerge on the other side with their hearts racing. In her world, nothing is quite as it seems—but that’s what makes it so irresistible.
