The Mercy of Dawn: A Dark Fantasy Romance - Paperback
by Ashley Bresee (Author)
A sidelined rogue, a playboy fae prince, and the grisly deaths that bind them together.
Rogue-in-training Cyril Rhodea lives by three flawed rules: The grasp of her uncle's guild is not to be escaped. The reclusive moon-fae of Reykr are not to be trusted. And-under no circumstances-can she ever fall in love.
But when a lucrative contract involving gruesome crimes drags her guild into the heart of the moon-fae court, those rules unravel.
Mikael, the kingdom's playboy spare heir, takes a quick interest in Cyril and provokes her at every turn. Arrogant, reckless, and entirely too perceptive, the moon-fae prince embodies everything she's sworn to despise, but she can't stay away from him.
Even worse, the mounting death toll in Reykr sees Cyril sidelined for safety, forcing her to watch as it all spirals beyond control. And when a brutal loss shatters her family of rogues, the once-despicable Mikael refuses to leave her side-despite having every reason to.
Somewhere between grief and survival, Cyril breaks her last rule: she lets herself fall in love.
But in a kingdom where no one is truly safe, it won't be enough to save her.
