How far would you go to have your revenge?
Shattered by the murder of her faery mother, Cenere knows that she, a lowly human, is powerless to avenge her, until her faery guardian, Luthian of Mithrax, offers her a deal... and a crown. As a queen, Cenere will have the power to bring her mother's killer to justice, but the fae give nothing freely. The price Luthian asks is total surrender to his every passionate whim and devious machination.
Exiled from the Court of Pleasure and Torment, Luthian seeks to return to his life of hedonism and perversion. Cenere will become his way back into the graces of the sadistic King Arcus. She need only pledge her body and will to Luthian. Under his tutelage, she'll be able to infatuate the court-and the King's rakish second son, Prince Cassan. Her guardian will do the rest, and place Cassan on his father's throne with Cenere beside him.
But when the doomed king sets his sights on the human woman who will be his undoing, her guardian can no longer keep her safe. Cenere finds herself protected by Prince Kathras, the heir to Arcus's throne and a faery far more dangerous than his father. Torn between her guardian, a cruel prince, and a kind one, Cenere knows her fate is out of her hands. And Luthian has his own secrets. When his true motivation is revealed, it will change the course of Cenere's life forever...
A Kingdom of Pleasure and Torment is a Dark Romantasy with strong themes and graphic imagery that may disturb some readers. Please consult the extensive content warnings inside.
