The Ethalena Series

The Duology of The Ethalena Series.
Containing both The Court of Lost Hope and The Court of Lost Faith.

Never make promises to strangers, especially if they're Fae.

Venyra has never belonged. With pointed ears, long white hair, and haunting pink eyes, she's a mystery the villagers fear, and a burden they barely tolerate. Found as a child in the heart of the forest with no memory of who she was, Venyra has spent her life trying to belong somewhere she was never meant to be.

But when the unexpected shatters the fragile peace she's clung to, Venyra makes a reckless choice: she flees into the unknown, crossing into the legendary, and deadly, realm of the Fae.

Zirniath is a place of shimmering beauty and ruthless cruelty, and Venyra quickly finds herself imprisoned in the radiant Sun Court. There, under the watchful eyes of High Lord Nephrite, his general Reorin, and their housekeeper Darnera, Venyra begins to uncover unsettling truths, not just about the Fae, but about herself.

As lies unravel and she is taken to the Fae ruler, Venyra finds herself thrown into the Red Waltz: brutal trials where humans are forced to fight each other for the Fae's amusement. To survive, she must make a pact with a creature who may be her only hope... or her doom.

But in a world built on lies and magic, trust can kill faster than any blade.

Magic. Deceit. Love. Deadly games.

Step into a lush, dangerous world where trust is a weapon, and secrets can kill. Perfect for fans of What Doesn't Break - Bells Hells, ACOTAR, Hunger Games, Powerless and The Cruel Prince.
