4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars 15,833 4.1 on Goodreads 46,634 ratings

For fantasy romance readers who love Raven Kennedy, Amanda Bouchet, and Carissa Broadbent. This slow burn, enemies-to-lovers series will enchant you…

For years, when I fell asleep, I dreamed of a man with blazing green eyes and a cruel smile.

The day I meet him, the ruthless mercenary leaves me for dead.

Just hours after humans are born, the gods take what little power we have. In return, they protect our borders from the vicious, merciless fae.

The humans who manage to keep their power are known as the corrupt.
And they are burned.

When my forbidden power is discovered, I’m forced to flee my tiny village and the life I adore.

To survive, I make a desperate bargain with the mercenary who abandoned me at my weakest.

Our deal is simple: I’ll help him and his mysterious friends sneak into the city. And he’ll help me learn to wield the strange, dark power I’ve always kept hidden. The power that may just be the key to my survival.

But the ruthless mercenary is hiding secrets of his own. Secrets that threaten the safety of everyone I love. Secrets that could tear this kingdom—and perhaps even this world—apart.

Please note: A Court This Cruel and Lovely is an NA/adult romantasy book with steam. While this series is slow burn, the chili pepper rating will increase for each book.

4.4 4.4 out of 5 stars 11,831 4.1 on Goodreads 32,260 ratings

Now an Amazon top 50 bestseller!

Risk everything for your kingdom…
Or be destroyed by it.

In a world darkened by deceit, the truth is a light that won’t be dimmed. Even when it illuminates Lorian’s betrayals more starkly than I could ever want to see.

They call him the Bloodthirsty Prince.

His reign of terror has left a trail of blood across this continent. A trail that intertwines with my own past–not even my parents were spared from his merciless slaughter.

To save my brother’s life, I agreed to another bargain with the fae prince. Now, I’m forced to work with him. Forced to travel to the fae lands. Forced to spend my every waking moment with the man who betrayed me. All because King Sabium has woven a deadly tapestry of manipulation, using those we least suspect for his wicked schemes.

There are no lines I won’t cross to protect the people I love. So I’ll work with former enemies. I’ll manipulate, blackmail, and deceive potential allies. I’ll swallow my pride, bury my shattered heart, and cooperate with the fae to prepare for the coming war.

Because there are creatures far more monstrous than the fae.

And some of them masquerade as men.

For fantasy romance readers who love Raven Kennedy, Amanda Bouchet, and Carissa Broadbent. This slow burn, enemies-to-lovers series will enchant you.

Now an Amazon top 20 bestseller!


The unimaginable has happened,
And none of our lives will ever be the same.

Surrounded by enemies, I've never been further from my crown...

Or closer to death.

Amidst a betrayal we couldn't have anticipated, I'll do whatever it takes to find my way back to Lorian – before his fury lays waste to this continent.

Alliances are being forged and broken, our enemies are unifying, and Regner’s spiders are closer than ever before.

We have only one chance to prevent him from attaining god-like powers and enslaving every human, fae, and hybrid across the four kingdoms.

Meanwhile, the human king believes I’m trapped here, yearning for my death, and waiting for Lorian to save me.

But Regner hasn’t yet realized that I'll stop at nothing to free my people.

And he's the one who should be afraid of me.

For fantasy romance readers who love Raven Kennedy, Amanda Bouchet, and Carissa Broadbent. This slow burn, enemies-to-lovers series will enchant you.

4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars 4,265 4.2 on Goodreads 9,388 ratings

Now a number 1 Amazon Bestseller!

The price of love is loss.
We all pay it eventually…

In every life…

Some moments are too painful to be endured.
Some moments will break you if you let them.

And yet I can’t afford to let anything break me. Because we have one chance to win this war. One chance to create a better life for everyone across the four kingdoms.

Even as our enemies ally with each other, and our own allies are forced to betray their kingdoms, their people…and themselves.
And even as Regner plans something so cruel, so wholly evil, he’s poised to douse the last remaining spark of hope in this world.

Unless we kill him first.

I was BLOWN AWAY by how good this series was, and I’m prepared to never shut up about it. Stacia Stark was a new to me author, and I read book one with only the synopsis to go off of and holy wow am I grateful I came upon this series! It has absolutely everything I love and more in new, inventive and exciting ways. The pacing was FLAWLESS including the slow burn build up. The world building was fleshed out so perfectly and never felt heavy handed or devoid of detail. This is really saying something because this book revolves around unpacking a world in rebellion and control after magic wars with the Fae. The King has a strict grip on magic users and the common people of this world face brutality at every turn. To be born with magic is a death sentence and there is nowhere to run. The stakes are so high, and they only get higher. It’s clear we’ve only scratched the surface of this world and that Stark has set up the perfect landscape for the next books to absolutely explode with action. The ending has me immediately looking for book 2, and 3 and ordering both because I will not sleep tonight just thinking about this ending. The gasp that came out of me could topple a building, and I loved every second! The final book is hands down the best finale to a series I have ever read! Every single book in this series is unputdownable!

Let’s talk spoiler free characters in this dual POV. Our FMC is in some serious chaos from start to right now, and I am rooting for her with every fiber of my being. She is strong, fierce and has more heart than most people combined in her world. She’s willing to fight with anything she can get her hands on to save the ones she loves, and might just save the world on her road to accomplish this mission. The side characters? Equally root-for-able! We get a healthy helping of the endearing side quest heroes that you will give your heart to, and equal parts hate to love them characters that are deliciously infuriating in the best ways. Now don’t let us miss our mystery man from which actual dreams are made of! This MMC and our other POV is everything you’d want in a morally grey hulking brood master secret cinnamon roll! You will be up all night wondering is he or isn’t he the bad guy, and maybe WHO CARES IF HE IS! This guy will soon become your favorite walking red flag. The road to this duo clashing into each other like a tidal wave is paced to perfection and will have your toes curling and you saying just one more chapter because WILL THEY OR WONT THEY?! To put it simply, this book is unputdownable, and it deserves to be on every bookstagrammers radar immediately. You’ll be frantic to find out who is the true villain and is what we know even remotely the truth? It’s a fantastic suspense filled ride I am certainly not even remotely ready to step off of!

This is the series for you if you love Romantasy, found family, forced proximity, hidden powers, Fae, enemies to lovers to enemies, morally grey MMC, slow burn, touch her and die, one bed, one horse (my fav!) spice (which I’m told ramps up in the next books but yall we get a good girl!) firecracker FMC, us vs the world and magical mystery!

I would literally give this series 5k stars if I could. All the stars! From Book 1 I was immediately sucked in like a vacuum. My first from this author so I took a minute to get into her writing style, but when I did... I was off. All I have to say is thank God I was blessed to find it when I did and was able to read straight thru. The world building, the characters, the plot, they are flawless. I fell in love instantly and I'm not one to get too emotional over a book. But I laughed, and cheered, and cried, and sobbed over each one. And that 4th book, that thing is 🔥🔥🔥. The perfect ending to bring it all together. I never wanted it to end. I pray she writes more in this world! Cuz I need more!!! I honestly don't know what to do with myself now, other than go read it again! Fantastic
