Enchanting the Fae Queen

Synopsis

A seductive fae queen meets her unexpected match in the enemy empire’s valiant general. Enchanting the Fae Queen is the second instalment in Stephanie Burgis' irreverent and sparkling Queens of Villainy series.

Queen Lorelei is a notorious fae seductress, with a trail of broken hearts in her wake. But behind her glamorous lifestyle and sparkling mask lurks a dangerously intelligent woman who’d do anything to keep her people safe, even kidnap the empire’s most famous hero.

The virtuous high general Gerard de Moireul represents all that is moral and true. He has to – after his parents were executed for treason. The last thing he needs is the Queen of Balravia, who showers glitter and rainbow-colored sparkles everywhere she goes without the slightest regard for good taste, decorum or royal dignity.

They’re opposites in every way, but when they’re swept up together in a grand - and deadly - fae tournament, they discover all of each other’s most hidden truths - and how perfectly they might be suited for each other after all.

Tropes: enemies to lovers; grumpy vs sunshine; kidnapping; morally grey FMC; deadly trials; fae

Reviews

I loved this book so damn much. Burgis’ brilliance knows no bounds!Charlotte Stein, author of When Grumpy Met Sunshine and How to Feed a Hungry Werewolf
A new Stephanie Burgis book is always a joy, and Enchanting the Fae Queen continues the trend with one of my favorite microtropes: a clever woman who is underestimated by everyone around her – except the enemy general she abducts. Add in the perfect blend of fantasy and romance and the result is delightful!Jessie Mihalik, author of Silver & Blood
Burgis keeps the pages flying while impressively balancing political intrigue, slow-burning romance and comic relief. Readers will be enchantedPublishers Weekly on Wooing the Witch Queen, Publishers Weekly on Wooing the Witch Queen
Witty dialogue, a slow-burn romance, and secrets keep this story moving at a steady clip . . . Burgis’s clever romantasy is ideal for readers of Travis Baldree and Freya MarskeLibrary Journal on Wooing the Witch Queen, Library Journal on Wooing the Witch Queen
