Midnight Deception: A Dark Fantasy Romance Cinderella Retelling

Born a lady. Forced into servitude. Saved by a wicked prince…or am I in worse trouble than ever?

Once upon a time, I was born a lady. Then tragedy struck, and I was forced to become a servant to my cruel stepfamily. Their obsession with illicit magic stole my inheritance, my prospects, and my future. But when all ladies of noble birth are called to the castle for a chance to win the heart of a wicked prince, I cannot refuse. I go in secret, with no ambitions beyond a chance to glimpse the life that should have been mine.
An encounter with a handsome stranger makes me yearn for more, but when the spell breaks at midnight, I run.

That stranger turns out to be the cold-hearted Prince Alistair. Now, he’s tearing the kingdom apart searching for me. How far will my stepfamily go to ensure he never finds me?

This spicy Cinderella retelling is intended for mature audiences. For fans of Evie Marceau, Scarlett St. Clair, and Olivia Wildenstein, the Awakened series is a spellbinding fantasy romance collection for spicy romantasy readers.

One chance to live. To love... or die trying.

Zosia
Assassins murdered my mother; I know I’m next. All I want is a chance to live my life before it’s ruthlessly cut short.
A break from the pressure doesn’t seem like much to ask for, but with my country on the brink of invasion, living a normal life is an impossible dream.
One I’ll try to claim, despite the risk.
Which is why they’ve sent him to shadow me.
Forget meeting anyone outside my carefully curated social circle.
Never mind finding a boyfriend.
I’m stuck with Lorcan glued to my side.
I despise him for ruining my one chance to try life away from court.
But the night I escape his close watch, death finds me … and I begin to see my guard in a different light.
No one can ever know how much my feelings have changed…especially not Lorcan.
Until war comes for us all, and the truth comes out…

This the first book in a trilogy and it ends on a cliffhanger – the third book ends with a Happy Ever After.
