Why Read This?

You'll experience a cathartic release through intense emotional pain and complex character dynamics that challenge traditional romance narratives.

Synopsis

What happens when a beautiful liar, a cruel prince, a ruthless manipulator, a seductive enchantress, and a man who is willing to do whatever it takes to find the woman he loves, get tangled in the same web of lies and secrets? Neira Aroya is an exceptional liar and a skillful thief. Ignorant of her true identity she uses only her mortal gifts to survive in a world ruled by vicious faeries and cunning gods. But as she gets swept up by the peculiar power she holds over the ether, the treacherous Realm of dreams, she finds herself torn between an unnamed, obscured ether-man and the merciless prince of Fae. Entrapped within a tempting but deceptive world, she will soon realize that every hero is a villain in disguise and every villain bears a great tragedy. And love is the most dangerous and unreliable path to follow. Meet Me in the Ether is an intricate story of complex characters and lethal secrets, set in a voluptuous world where love and hate converge, truth is poison, and virtue becomes nothing more than a sacrifice to the altar of survival. This is the first book in a fantasy romance series with multiple POVs. It ends on a cliffhanger.
