But that’s months away, months of trekking difficult terrain in a harsh winter, and no way of contacting Bee, to learn if she’s even still alive.She faces the same danger that I do.Broken promises, fractured bargains, and death at the hands of the fae meant to take us back to the realm.________________________________________________________________________________________________Hunted by Fae is a dark fae series, with dark romance elements, and whose content warnings should be read.This series is slow-burn, totally unethical, morally challenging, and in classic Blackbird fashion, dark-dark. less
