About this ebook

A queen imprisoned.

A reluctant prince.

A realm in peril…

The second dumbest thing I ever did was to make a Fae bargain with my mother. The dumbest thing was to make another one…

Trading my freedom for Lawrence’s life seemed like a noble act, and if I wasn’t already a celebrity in Faerie, I definitely am now. The problem is that being in the asylum means I have to play by its rules, and it soon shows itself to have a twisted mind and secrets to hide.

While I’m connecting the asylum’s secrets to my past and the hidden history of Faerie, my gargoyle lover and mate Lawrence is dealing with political and family complications. I thought my mother was my greatest foe, but it turns out there’s a bigger, deadlier game afoot, and Lawrence and I are the pawns.

Can I figure out how to leverage the power of the asylum to wriggle out of the bargain I made and claim my mate and destiny? Or will I be too late to defeat the voracious soul-sucking spirits amassing in Faerie and lose my sanity, my realm, my life… and my lover?

Sometimes even a Fae princess has to agree to an impossible bargain, and sometimes she has to break the rules. Guess which one I’m going to do?

Risen Shadows is the sixth and final book in the fast-paced and thrilling Fae Files urban fantasy series. If you love snarky heroines, satisfying slow-burn romance, twisty plots, and stories that straddle mundane and fantasy realms, these are the book and series for you.

Ratings and reviews

This is a great wrap up to Reine and Lawrence 's story. While finishing up storylines and answering some lingering questions, it also leaves the opportunity for spin offs for other characters. This series has an overall flow, that is really easy to follow. This conclusion was non stop.

Reine is back for more trouble but this time politics are involved more then ever. And of course there is intrigue, secrets, danger, and family involved. Just a fun and entertaining read that kept me glued to the end to see what would happen and how it would end.

Risen Shadows is the last book in The Fae Files series, and it was a great book. I enjoyed this final book. Reine and Lawrence's point of view alternates between each chapter, which leaves the story filled with tension and intrigue. I loved this book, even though it is the last book, this story kept my attention. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
