I’ve been underestimated my entire life.

Too mortal. Too forgettable. Too powerless.

When a dragon captures my mentor, I track it beyond the borders of safety—straight into the grasp of a cursed king who’s more monster than man.

He’s ruthless. Dangerous. And convinced I was sent to destroy him.

I force him into a bargain: my mentor’s freedom for my life. Simple. Except nothing about the king is simple.

A prophecy binds us. His castle breathes secrets. The walls whisper. And every day I spend in his domain, the line between captor and something far more dangerous blurs.

He needs me for reasons he won’t explain, and I can’t tell if he’s keeping me safe—or keeping me close for the kill.

Time is running out. If I don’t break the curse, my kingdom burns. But breaking it means trusting the beast I know I should hate.

Kingdom of Roses and Flame is a standalone Beauty and the Beast retelling with an HEA, set in the Fated Fairytales world. Each book follows a new couple in a shared world and can be read on its own, though readers of Reign of Cinders and Glass will spot familiar faces.
