Why Read This?

A fast-paced, immersive fantasy romance with a compelling spy academy setting, Arthurian lore woven into the worldbuilding, and a deliciously slow-burn forbidden romance that builds over 500+ pages

Synopsis

Avalon Spy Academy rules: spy on the fey, resist falling for your mentor, and try not to die in the process. What I’m hoping for on my European vacation is to read books and drink champagne on the beach. Instead, I end up kidnapped by an arrogant, lethally sexy fey named Raphael. It turns out, I have a magic power needed to fight an evil fey king. Next thing I know, Raphael has enrolled me in an elite spy academy. There, in the ancient and gothic halls of Avalon Tower, snobbery and brutal competitions are among the oldest traditions. Making my job harder, the silver-eyed Raphael is my mentor. Romance is forbidden here--a distracted spy is a dead spy. So I need to push his dangerous allure out of my mind as we travel into the Fey realm. If we get captured by the fey king, we’ll die horrific deaths–and humanity won’t stand a chance.
