House of Lies and Sorrow: Fae of Rewyth Book 1

Dance with the Fae Prince meets Cruel Beauty in this Young Adult Arranged Marriage Fae Fantasy.

Jade Farrow will die tomorrow. Her fate was decided years ago, when her useless father made a deal with the greedy fae king to save his own life. Now, she is being sent to marry one of the five ruthless fae princes. The only problem is that she is not the first human to marry a fae prince. And like every human wife before her, Jade is going to be killed before she can find a way out.

Malachi Weyland is the heir to the fae throne. It’s the reason his brothers have despised him all these years, and it’s the reason his father is adamant on finding him a human wife. Malachi has one job, and that is to unite the fae and human lands. But Malachi has a secret, and it’s one that gives him his rightful name amongst both the human and fae lands: The Prince of Shadows.

Jade and Malachi are faced with life-or-death challenges as Jade is thrown into Malachi’s magical world. Will she die just like every wife before her? Or will Malachi, the same fae who is feared across all of Rewyth, be the one to save her life?

Show no weakness. Yield no mercy. House of Lies and Sorrow is a fast-paced, arranged-marriage story between born enemies who are forced to work together. Readers who love slow-burn, angsty enemies-to-lovers stories between a broody fae prince and a stubborn human bride will love this magical first installment of the Fae of Rewyth series!

Great performances solid story

Good story and interesting characters, low on the spicy but has a touch of angst. More of a Romance and mystery- the Prince is trying to protect his new bride from someone who wants her dead. But exactly who wants her dead is not clear. It does keep you guessing nicely.

It’s good if you like a story of a scrappy heroine surrounded by potential enemies on all sides. I quite liked it.

If you’re looking for spicy romance this isn’t it. There’s a burn here, but we’ve got smouldering fires and embers threatening to ignite. Still good, just not *that* book.

The Hero would destroy the world for his woman though. So if you like a very protective, somewhat villainous romantic lead- this is for you.

Also- the heroine isn’t “Buffy” or “Katniss” type. But she’s also not a weakling damsel in distress. The author achieved a nice balance of a mentally strong and clever person that is just physically no match for fae adversaries. I could see a real person here.

The performances are solid, I could listen to the male performer for hours- he has such a nice voice. This really makes it breaks an audiobook for me.

Book 2 is already out- so that’s good. I hate having a book 1, with no book 2. Leaving you hanging for months.. I am moving straight to book 2.
