Captured by the Fae Lord: A Dark Fae Captive Bride Romance

By A. R. Lenahan

He stole her for her blood. He never expected her to become his weakness.

Amara Kensington has survived by staying invisible.

In the mortal world, she is only an apothecary with quiet hands, careful secrets, and dormant magic she was taught never to reveal. But when Lord Caerwyn Dravenel, the ruthless Sovereign of the Black Thorns, discovers the forbidden power hidden in her blood, her life is over before she can run.

He does not come for her heart.

He comes for her heritage.

Dragged into the Court of Briar and Bone, Amara becomes Caerwyn's captive bride, the unwilling key to an ancient vow that could anchor his crumbling throne. The High Fae call it a marriage. Amara knows better. It is a cage made of thorns, blood, and beautiful lies.

In Caerwyn's court, every promise is a trap, every smile hides a blade, and every word can bind a soul. Fae cannot tell a literal lie, but they have perfected the art of destroying with the truth. Amara's only weapon is a secret gift that lets her sense the rot beneath their glamour, a gift that makes her more dangerous than anyone realizes.

As the Blood Moon approaches and rival houses circle, Amara must outmaneuver the deadly Lady Ysmera, resist the pull of the possessive fae lord who claims to own her, and uncover why her bloodline was hidden from the court in the first place.

Caerwyn is cold, ruthless, and terrifyingly beautiful. He sees Amara as a political asset, yet his protection grows darker with every threat against her. His touch is fire. His secrets are poison. And the closer Amara comes to hating him, the harder it becomes to deny that he may be the only thing standing between her and something worse.

The Briar Vow is waiting.

The throne demands blood.

And if Amara cannot claim her power before the court claims her, she may lose more than her freedom.

She may lose her heart to the monster who stole her.
