Description

Bound to a dark king…

Everyone in the world of Under has magic. Everyone belongs to one of the six ruling houses.

Everyone except me.

When all of Under gathers for the ancient Ceremony of the Fall and my weakness is revealed, hungry eyes turn my way. For some I’m unique, a mystery to be solved. For others I’m prey.

From now on, every day will be a fight to survive.

Most dangerous of all, I’ve drawn the attention of Aon, the mysterious king who rules the House of Shadows. Dark and seductive, he appears in my dreams, igniting a desire I can’t control.

They say Aon is a monster, a killer, and worse… So why do I find myself drawn to him? His face is hidden behind a mask, but his voice and his touch enchant me.

When the magic of Under begins to change, the six houses are thrown into a struggle for power and I begin a deadly game of cat and mouse with Aon’s rivals. Because if they discover our bond, they will stop at nothing to destroy me.

King of Flames begins a steamy and addictive six-book series of villainous kings and dark romance that’s perfect for fans of Raven Kennedy, Nikki St. Crowe and Penelope Barsetti.

This fully revised new edition is darker and spicier than ever.
