Publication date: July 2nd 2019
Genres: Adult, Fantasy, Romance
Sorceress, enchantress, deceiver, murderer—I’ve been called all those and more, some that might make you blush. Lucky for me, I couldn’t care less what people think about me. I’ve had my sights set on one thing for the last thousand years, and that’s all that matters. I’ll do whatever it takes to find the cauldron, even if it means taking on a partner. They call him a knight in shining armor. For me, he’s my golden ticket. He fell into my lap, quite literally, and now he’s going to help me get what I want.
I don’t play particularly well with others, but he’s the best shot I’ve got, so I’ll hop on that train and hope it gets me where I need to go. He thinks he’s going to crack my shell and see what’s on the inside, like maybe there’s a warm gooey center to make up for the hard exterior. He’s in for a world of disappointment. Everything soft and delicate about me became rough and hardened a long time ago. I’m Morgan Le Fay, and I’m the villain in this story.
Author Bio:

My Review
This is the fifth book in the Fae Games series and takes a bit of a different style to the previous books. While they focused on humans who came into contact with the world of the fae, this time we have to fae people.In the previous stories, Morgan le Fae has been shown as being the villain of the piece, but this time we have her as the lead female character. It's clear that she has done some terrible things, but it also becomes apparent that there were reasons for her actions. As we learn more of her history, as the story progresses it becomes easier to relate to Morgan. She slowly begins to forgive herself for what she has become.
There are twists and turns in this story and a few surprises. I will admit that I had guessed most of them, but that didn't matter, the whole read was very enjoyable. I think that there might be more to come in this world. Although there was a conclusion here I'm not sure if Merlin has finished or not. He certainly seems to be the one pulling the strings here. I'd recommend reading the whole of this series, although I think that this one may possibly work as a standalone.
Thanks for hosting today, Kelly!
