Nightwild Reckoning by L. Ann — book slip

In the mortal world, treason is paid for with death.

I survived my captivity among the fae, only to realize the true monsters are the humans I left behind.

When my father demands I betray the fae warrior who took me, I refuse. For my silence, I'm branded a traitor.

My father has arranged an execution for high sun.

One drop of the trapdoor. One final breath.

They can have my life. They will never have him—the monster I was raised to hate, and the one I'll die for before I ever betray him.

This is book 2 in The Unsealing - a dark romantasy for readers who want the fallout after the enemies become something more, a heroine condemned for choosing the monster, human/fae conflict, slow-burn devotion, and romance with life-or-death consequences.
