Blurb/Summary:
A Fairy Princess with no power is married off to the enemy who she believes killed her brother. But when her new husband offers to help her unlock her magic, she must make a choice between love and revenge…
Who ever heard of a fairy princess with no magic? Well, that happens to be my
fate. I am Alira Shiningstar of the Royal house of the Seelie Court. I am
descended from a long line of powerful Fae, and yet I have no power of my own.
I might be forgiven for having no magic, but I have no beauty, either. I am
curvy where I should be thin and my hair is dark instead of blonde. I do not
look like the other Fae maidens…so why is it that Liath Blackthorn, the Prince
of our sworn enemy, the Unseelie Court, wishes to marry me?
Liath doesn’t look like a proper Fae either—he is tall and beastly with curving
horns and blazing bronze eyes. He tells me that I do have magic—that it is buried inside me. And only he can bring it out.
But the things he wants to do to unlock my hidden power leave me hot and
trembling. Surely it isn’t right to do such things, even with one’s husband…is
it? I don’t know if it is or not—I only know that the touch of my new husband’s
hands on my body makes me quiver with need. And inside me I feel a force
growing…a shadow that is bigger than both of us.
What happens next? You’ll have to read this Enemies to Lovers, He Falls
First, Praise K*nk, Who Did This To You, Sex Magic, Spicy Dark Fantasy Romance
to find out!
Author's Spice note--this one gets spicy. Don't say I didn't warn you. : )
Review:
Great standalone novel with the possibility of a spinoff or more to come. I loved both the main characters Princess Alira and Prince Liath. They both showed strength, love, and empathy in their own ways. The two make a fantastic contrasting couple.
The plot moves along at a great pace and will have you glued to the pages. The evil characters don’t escape punishment and Evangeline Anderson delivers both a HEA and HFN.
This is a complete story without any cliff-hangers. Princess Alira and Prince Liath do have hot, spicy chemistry, as a reader might expect with an Evangeline Anderson book. The Throne of Shadows was a fun read with lots of magic!
I loved the cover art! It was a visual representation of the characters descriptions in the story.
I received this ARC for an honest review.
