In a land of darkness and deadly adversaries… He might just be the deadliest one of all. Burdened by a debt she can never hope to repay, Aislin is sent by her cruel lord to the mysterious land of Dunmaren, where she must beg the night elves for a single favor. The shapeshifters demand a steep price, but Aislin will do anything to save her family—even travel alone into a nightmare forest filled with monsters. Except she isn't quite alone... Talyn's magic is as deadly as his blades, but he lives only for his chance at revenge. Betrayed and imprisoned by his night elf kin, his only hope of freedom is to serve as guide and bodyguard to a human woman foolish enough to enter the perilous depths of the Darkspring. Talyn wants nothing to do with a weak and useless human. In Dunmaren, only the strong survive, and soft things are easily broken. But Aislin defies his expectations at every turn, and what he once believed to be weakness might just prove the key to their survival. In the shadows beneath the earth, an unlikely bond is forged between the renegade night elf and the fiercely determined human. But few ever return from the depths, and it will take more than stubbornness and steel to defeat the enemy that awaits them at the very heart of the Darkspring. In Darkness Forged is a standalone night elf romance with a sweet, slow-burn love story and a happily-ever-after ending. If you loved A Deal With the Elf King or The Bridge Kingdom, don’t miss this swoon-worthy tale of sacrifice, redemption, and revenge.

Better to die than to swear a blood oath to a clanless night elf… Sky has had enough of being used for her magic. She’s been betrayed one too many times, and now she wants nothing more than to be left alone. But fate won’t let her hide for long. Something evil is stalking the residents of her village, and they think she’s just the person to stop it. Sky never could resist a cry for help, but the creeping darkness is growing, and leaves her no choice but to escort a handful of terrified refugees across the border—to a place that may not be much safer than their dark-magic infested town. Rhone never expected his band of outcasts to be invaded by a horde of helpless humans. They’re on the run from a voracious creature of dark magic, and the only thing holding them together is a bewitching human mage with a chip on her shoulder and a willingness to face hell itself to keep her promises. Rhone knows within minutes of meeting her that his world will never be the same, but she doesn’t want his help. In fact, she wants nothing to do with him, but the danger she’s facing is a threat to humans and night elves alike. So if he has to convince her that he’s a bloodthirsty villain to get her to accept his help? He’ll do it—and far worse—if it means saving the life of the woman who inexplicably owns his heart.A swoon-worthy tale of dark magic, devotion, and sacrifice for fans of Elise Kova, Sylvia Mercedes, and Shari L. Tapscott.
