He is a ghost—a golden, shifting mist, an echo in the abyss. How could he love a disfigured human girl?
Liosa hides half her face under her hair. She wishes she could hide the rest of her, but princesses and pawns can never stay hidden for long.
She must wed to save her kingdom from a horrible, bloody fate at the hands of the Rose King. But she knows that in doing so, she will die. Because when her future husband discovers her secret scars, he will slay her himself.
But on the night she’s expected to charm a cruel suitor into marriage, a terrifying creature of legends chooses her first.
He is a king colder than death, cloaked in pouring, shifting mist, and carrying the scent of ancient things that have never seen the sun.
The ghost king steals her away to the Hollow Deep, his dark kingdom at the very bottom of the world. A land of monsters, of slowly dripping water and desolate echoes. A land of more pain and despair than she could have imagined.
Alone and afraid, she flees from her new husband’s cold touch, from his intense and terrifying gaze. But there is nowhere to hide from a ghost.
As she begins to unravel the king’s enigmatic nature—and her fear of him begins to twist into something much stranger—Liosa discovers a deadly plot brewing in the Hollow Deep, one that could set into motion a chain of disaster in Faery above.
Now she must either remain a trembling, disfigured girl hiding behind a veil of her own making, or become the queen the Hollow Deep desperately needs.
She only wonders—why did the ghost king choose her at all?
And can she ever love a creature made of mist?
If you love romantasy with none of the spice or swearing but all of the aching, yearning, and angst, The Ghost King’s Bride is for you!
Each book in the FAE OF THE DESOLATION series follows a different main character, a desperate human who finds herself entangled with powerful fae royalty. The series can be read as standalone novels with their own HEAs, but is best read in series order to follow the overarching storyline of saving the world of Faery from a heartless king.
