Tragically Yours
This is a standalone story in the Fae Kings of Eden world. Books 1-3 take place over the same time period, in different kingdoms, and revolve around different couples. They can be read in any order.
No one would take her from him, and if they tried, they would arrive in hell one piece at a time.
FAWN
Being half-human and half-fae had always made Fawn an outsider. Her only saving grace in the Human Kingdom was that she had no fae magic to fear. Until the day it manifested—fragile, flickering, but undeniably there. To humans, that made her dangerous, forcing her family to relocate to one of the four fae kingdoms.
Then tragedy stole everything she loved, leaving her hollow. Survival meant numbness, until Dean, the fae king of the Garden Kingdom, claimed she was his fated mate. He shattered her walls and touched the parts of her she thought were dead. He destroyed anyone who threatened her happiness—except his ex-fiancé, who reminded Fawn she was weak at every turn.
DEAN
Dean had known his mate’s name since he was thirteen. Feeling her on the other side of their bond kept him from his father’s darkness. Until he felt unimaginable agony, followed by nothing. They said she was dead, but his soul whispered otherwise, teasing him with shadows of her across a severed tie.
Duty shackled him to a political betrothal, condemning him to a life of unhappiness. While visiting a foreign kingdom, he felt her laugh from the table next to his. His obsession roared to life, more feral with each passing day. She was his, always had been. And he would carve a bloody path through anyone who threatened her.
But Fate was merciless, and to keep his mate alive, he couldn’t eliminate the one person who sought to steal him away.
Tragically Yours is a dual POV standalone fantasy romance with a romance heavy plot and simple world building. It is a fast-paced easy read. If you prefer your fantasy romance books to have a fantasy heavy plot, this book may not be for you.
Please note: The male lead does things that may be disturbing to some in the name of love (not to the female lead) if he feels his mate has been threaten or disrespected. Check the author's website for a full list of TW.

Fae Kings of Eden
In Eden, fate is never a gentle hand, it is a chain, a crown, and sometimes a blade. The Fae Kings of Eden series plunges readers into a realm where gods declare soulmates long before hearts are ready, where fae rulers guard their kingdoms with ruthless devotion, and where love is both salvation and curse.
Each book unravels a different bond: a king who waits years for the human girl promised to him, a crown prince torn between destiny and forbidden desire, sisters divided by the cruelty of prophecy. These romances are steeped in obsession and sacrifice, where longing collides with loyalty and even the strongest must choose between power and the person who holds their heart.
Fae Kings of Eden consists of four books and series is set to expand with the upcoming release of one more book. The current recommended reading order for the series is provided below.
