The Poison Princess and the Lord of Misrule

Seravyn
To pay my dominion’s debt, I was betrothed to a cruel king.
I haven’t smiled in twenty-nine days. The citizens call me the sad princess, and my betrothed has papered the realm with decrees, promising a fortune to any fool who can make me laugh.
They don’t know I carry a dark craft in my blood and enough poison in my veins to fell a king.
I lost my home, my life, my future – but when a jester carrying his own heavy grief trips in the throne room, making me laugh for the first time since I lost everything, he becomes mine.
My own personal court jester.
Every day I fall a little deeper into a forbidden yearning that could destroy us both – right up until we’re snared in a tangled web with the very king I’ve sworn to end.

I came to the palace to put a blade in the king’s heart.
Then I heard her sweet laugh, and I fell to my knees and devoted what was left of my ruined life to being her fool.
Secret meetings. Stolen touches. A love I’d risk everything for. I knew my princess was hiding something behind those sad eyes—I just never guessed it was a curse with a cost neither of us could pay.
She’s a daughter of poison. A queen of dark ruin.
And gods help me, for her, I am her willing fool.
But there’s a crueler truth brewing in the dark of the palace, one with arctic eyes and a menacing grin, and when he discovers our betrayal, he has his own plans for how this story will end.
There are no fairy tales darker than ours.
