The Scented Court

Jess, a half-fae hidden in the shadows of a rural life, craves more. Her longing for adventure and the magic that pulses through her veins leads to a fateful flower festival, where her dormant ability blooms into the open. Thrust into a world of opulence and competition, Jess discovers a devastating truth kept from her by her mother–a secret that alters her very identity.

Jessamine is heartbroken over an unexpected tragedy but has no time to grieve before the throne delivers an ultimatum: become a spy or face banishment. Laec is under house-arrest for his part in Çifta’s rescue but still keeping his eyes and ears open for his Seelie queen. He’s suspicious of the winter kingdom leaving their lands for the first time in forty years and arriving at the Scented Court… where dire predictions of darkness loom. Can he prove himself to the court, and maybe Çifta’s father?

Sasha and Rialta await trial, separated from Jessamine by a bureaucracy she is determined to overcome—even if it means bending the rules.
