Queen of Storms

In the hallowed Storm Fae Academy, everyone has a secret. It sucks to be a supernatural fugitive, but as a fae witch, what can you do? Get on with things. Ignore the elite fae assassins who rule the city. Try not to freak out when one of them surprises you mid-shower. Usual stuff.

But when the assassins capture my best friend, I'll do anything to stop her execution. Including joining their academy. Now, while I secretly plot to break Wren out, I am forced to compete in a lethal set of trials. Failure means that a monstrous headsman kills us both.

Turns out I have to train with a dragon-blood fae. He's powerful, scary, and lethally attractive. And, like me, he's harboring dark secrets. Worst thing about him? He's the monstrous headsman himself.

This book is from the Demons of Fire and Night world, with characters who appear in Court of Shadows.
