Books like Fairydale

Veronica Lancet turns fairy tales gothic in Fairydale. Grey fae, forbidden desire in total darkness. Frank heat. Once upon a time, with blood. Readers who want their fae stories twisted and haunting will be delighted. Strange, lush and unsettling. Twisted fairy tales, forbidden longing and a fae prince who is far from charming.
