“Neon Gods meets Fifty Shades... Deliciously dark and sexy!” —#1 NYT bestselling author Helen Hardt I thought a weekend away would be the perfect escape. Until I woke up married and trapped...by the king of the Dark Fae. For Bryn Meara, a free trip to the exclusive and ultra-luxe Nightfall hotel and casino in Vegas should’ve been the perfect way to escape the debris of her crumbling career. But waking up from a martini-and-lust-fueled night to find herself married to Caiden Verran, the reclusive billionaire who owns the hotel and most of the city, isn’t the jackpot one would think. It seems her dark and sexy new husband is actual royalty—the fae king of the Night Court—and there’s an entire world beneath the veil of Vegas. Whether light or shadow, the fae are a far cry from fairy tales, and now they’ve made Bryn a pawn in their dark games for power. And Caiden is the most dangerous of all—an intoxicating cocktail of sin and raw, insatiable hunger. She should run. But every night of passion pulls Bryn deeper into his strange and sinister world, until she’s no longer certain she wants to leave...even if she could.

Waterstones' Children's Book Prize 2019, Klaus Flugge Prize 2019 and Independent Bookshop Week Awards 2019 There was once a little boy who was afraid of the dark. There's nothing unusual about that. Most children are afraid of the dark at one time of another. But this little boy was a Prince, and he decided that when he became King, he would do something about the dark. He would ban it. When the King bans the dark completely, installing an artificial sun, and enforcing "anti-dark" laws, it seems like a good idea. The citizens don't need to worry about any of the scary things that might live in the dark. But what happens when nobody can sleep, and the citizens revolt? Will the King face his fears and turn the lights off? The King Who Banned the Dark is a beautiful and thought-provoking story about how we need the dark in order to enjoy the light.

My sister is in the hands of a rival mafia family, and my only hope of getting her back is by making a wager.

Not well enough to beat my enemy at least. Which means I need a new plan, and a new game. But I need Ace's trust too, and it's precarious at best. She doesn't understand my world. She doesn't know the things I've done or why my enemies call me the Dark King. But I can't be soft for her. Not when my sister's at risk--when Ace is at risk. I just hope I don't lose her when she finds out that I'm not her Prince Charming. I'm the Dark King.
