Heroes never win. But villains sometimes do.

A Monarchs　Monsters dark fantasy romance between a damaged dryad and four monstrous heroes. Expect danger, revenge, monsters, gods, and a game with life and death consequences.

Ive made mistakes, but nothing like this.

Now stuck with criminals and monsters as a sacrificial offering in a game with no winners, Ill be lucky to survive in one piece. If I even want to.

But something drives me despite my recent loss. Revenge? Hope for a lonely future? Or my sudden fascination with my new companions, who all have secrets they dont want to share?

The fire fae is all anger and hostility, burying deep hurt.

The merman is charm and seduction while plotting behind our backs.

The orc seems like he caresbut enough to stay close when his past comes calling?

And then theres the handsome demon. I think he might be something Ive never seen before. And he keeps calling me pet.

We have to endure the trials to survive. But Ive also been tasked to do something beyond my ability if I want any peace.

Stop the war god.

But its all I can do to stay alive when theres a bounty on my head, and Im surrounded by everyone who wants to do bad things to me. Hurting me is the least of what they'll do if they learn what I really am. My existence is an automatic death sentence.

I cant let anyone know my truth. Except to stop this war god, Ill need to call on a power Ive never been able to use and trust my team wont kill me when they find out the truth. Even if I dont lose my head, I might just end up losing my heart in the process.
