Oh my fae-loving friends, this book was EVERYTHING! 😍 Let me tell you about this deliciously twisty tale that kept me up way too late...
This enchanting tale sweeps you into a world where magic and danger dance hand in hand, anchored by the captivating story of Elessia, a half-Fae with a potent gift: she can compel anyone with just a glance. But when a tragic accident lands her in the dungeons of the ruthless Fae King, her life takes a dark turn—a blood oath binds her to his service, and her dreams slip away.
Fast forward five years, Elessia now runs a tavern in the human city of Ellow. Her friends, Ardow and Amalise, are her backbone, helping her navigate the complexities of life while she harbors orphans from the streets. But just as she starts to find a semblance of peace, the Fae King calls in his debt, forcing Elessia to infiltrate the human elections and uncover the truth behind disturbing events in the Fae realm.
Enter Regent Loche, with his striking grey eyes and muscular build. He’s layered with secrets that draw Elessia in, complicating her mission to uncover whether he’s involved in the dark happenings in the land of Fae. Can she trust him, or is he another pawn in the King’s game?
Adding to the intrigue is Merrick, the Death Whisperer (hello, deadly and mysterious Fae guard! 🖤)—who looms as both protector and threat. His presence keeps readers on their toes, making Elessia's journey even more thrilling as she navigates the fine line between survival and betrayal.
St Germain’s vivid world-building is breathtaking, from the towering white castle above the dark sea to Elessia’s cozy tavern buzzing with life. The chilling challenge of surviving two weeks without food and water in a remote cottage adds an edge of desperation to the election process!
"A Tongue So Sweet and Deadly" is a fantastic blend of fantasy, heart, and suspense. Elessia’s journey is one of resilience, love, and tough choices that will leave you eagerly anticipating the next twist. 📚
