Synopsis
A promise to a Fae Queen. A favor to be claimed. Cricket never imagined the bargain he made for his friend’s happiness would end with him married to the Gold Queen. The queen who could read his every emotion. The queen who he thought he hated. But after weeks stuck at the palace with her, even his pure and simple hatred doesn't seem so simple anymore. Orla has spent most of her life trying to convince her people she won’t become the next Mad Queen, but forcing her ex’s spurned lover to marry her? Maybe she was losing her mind after all. Or maybe under her new husband’s swirling emotions she might find something more genuine than she ever expected.
