Dark Fae
Susanne Valenti, Caroline Peckham
A complete dark fantasy romance series from Amazon.com and Wall Street Journal #1 bestselling authors Caroline Peckham & Susanne Valenti. This is a dark, "why choose" paranormal romance set in the same world as BookTok sensation Zodiac Academy with morally grey, unhinged alphas and a fierce FMC who walks straight into the lion’s den to reclaim what’s hers. Now available in paperback with a gorgeous tarot card inspired cover art.
What do a heartless Dragon Shifter, a cold-blooded Basilisk, an arrogant Lion Shifter and a brooding, tattooed Harpy have in common…? Me. Elise Callisto.
Vampire. Angel of vengeance. And a girl on a mission to destroy one of them for murdering my brother.
I just don’t know which one did it yet. When I interrogated/accidentally killed a Werewolf who was high on a new and dangerous drug called Killblaze, his final words painted a dark reality for me. The King of Aurora Academy killed my brother.
The trouble is, there’s four kings at the academy and each of them have motive and bloodthirsty natures. Aurora Academy isn’t a place for the faint of heart. To put it lightly, my town is the cesspit of Solaria where the most cutthroat Fae in the kingdom reside.
The school itself is divided by the two gangs who run this city. The Lunar Brotherhood and the Oscura Clan. And guess what?
Two of the kings run the gangs at the academy, their hatred for each other so fierce I hear a day doesn’t go by without blood being spilled in the halls. I might be a petite, lilac-haired girl who looks like I couldn’t hurt a fly, but they haven’t been introduced to my fangs yet. And they don’t know why I’m really here.
Or that I’ll do whatever it takes to bring down the Fae who took my flesh and blood from me. I don’t believe in fate, but I do know this… the King who killed my brother is a dead man walking. And I’m prepared to sacrifice my heart, body and soul to ensure I get my revenge. *** This is a gritty, college age, steamy series set in a world where Fae fight to take whatever they want.
The heroine will end up with multiple love interests so you never have to pick a favourite alphahole. You can expect dark and hot romance, and a twisted murder mystery which will leave your head spinning and your heart racing. This series is set in the same world as Zodiac Academy but is its own story and can be read independently. ***

EDIT: Still enjoyed it this time! I don't think my rating changed, so it's still a 4/5 for me. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- What even was that ending hello??? Anyways. I really enjoyed this. I was bribed by a friend into reading these before Shadow Princess so here I am. Honestly, I really enjoyed this. I kinda loved the fact that there really wasn't much bullying in this compared to ZA. I think that really did it for me. I can't really think of any characters I viscerally hate other than Cindy PooLou. I'm honestly really glad I started this. I love Elise and I love all of the MMC's. They're wonderful. Anyway, 4/5 stars.

I need the next book immediately. The mystery factor of this book keeps you wanting more with every chapter you read. I adore Elise with everything that I am. I am just waiting for her to rip her brothers killer to shreds while simultaneously wanting to know what makes each of the love interests tick and hoping it wasn’t them who killed gareth.

Holy shit that was intense!! I have so many questions and theories and I will be diving into the next book ASAP! It was fascinating to switch from Zodiac Academy to Aurora Academy and see some familiar faces, I have absolutely fallen head over heels for Elise! And absolutely swooning over Gabriel
