Courts of Shadow and Sin

Three courts. Three heirs. One ancient king who refuses to stay buried.

For three hundred years, the Shattered King has waited beyond the veil, gathering power in the darkness and preparing for the day the barriers between worlds finally break.

That day has come.

Across the fae realm, prophecies awaken. Ancient rituals choose heirs no one expected. Mortal women are pulled into a world of dangerous magic, ruthless High Lords, forbidden bonds, and crowns stained with centuries of blood.

In the Court of Thorns, a mortal bookseller discovers she is the heir to a prophecy that could save two worldsโ€”or destroy them.

In the Court of Mirrors, old lies begin to unravel, exposing secrets powerful enough to shatter kingdoms.

In the Court of Storms, the final heir must decide whether some crowns are worth claiming at all.

As ancient enemies rise and the courts edge toward war, three women will find themselves bound to the fate of the realm itself.

Because the Shattered King is coming.

And this time, he intends to finish what he started.

Perfect for readers who love powerful fae courts, morally grey High Lords, forbidden bonds, court intrigue, dangerous magic, slow-burn-to-scorching romance, and epic fantasy stakes.

Welcome to the Courts of Shadow and Sin.

Choose your court carefully.

About the Author

Delilah Duvall writes dark fae romantasy for readers who want their heroes ancient, possessive, and absolutely wrecked by a human woman who was never supposed to matter.

Her worlds are old. Her fae are older โ€” primal forces wearing flesh, bound by laws that predate language, and dangerous in ways they cannot undo. Her heroines donโ€™t flinch. They walk into courts of shadow and castles of thorn, and they stay. Not because theyโ€™re fearless โ€” because they refuse to be the one who leaves.
