The fae prince needs a human bride.

Desperate to save my ailing mother, I set off to find a skilled healer, only to be captured by flesh traders a day into my journey. Just when I think all is lost, a huge, golden-winged fae male comes to my rescue. Not only does the handsome, musclebound creature save me from the auction block, but he promises to help my dying mother. He also treats me with great deference and makes me question everything I thought I knew about the fae.

I'm shocked, however, when I learn my would-be savior's true identity—Prince Lucas. The same Summer Court prince who helped conquer my homeland. How could I ever trust him? I'll never forget the bloodshed and cruelty his people visited on mine, and I fear he possesses a dark side that might emerge at any moment. But no matter how fiercely I try to guard my heart, his warmth and gentleness keep breaking through my defenses.

Despite our growing connection, I expect we'll part ways soon, and I'll never see him again. He has a few northern kingdoms left to conquer, and I'm probably going to marry a human man and settle down in a quiet village. But I never counted on his ruthless determination to make me his, and I'm stunned to discover he doesn't just want me as a concubine. He wants more. He wants everything.

He wants me to become his wife.
