Shadow Realm Chronicles: Maeve

Her love was her light. Her transformation, her curse. Her revenge, a looming shadow.

Before the Great War shattered the realms, Maeve was a fairy, wife to Hunter, and mother to baby Alexander. But a brutal attack by the vampire Marius rips her from her life, turning her into a creature of the night. Desperate and alone, she falls into the clutches of Jonathan, the enigmatic Shadow King, becoming his queen in a realm of perpetual darkness.

Years pass, and the quiet town of Rivers Peak is unknowingly in the crosshairs of Maeve's monstrous ambition-and the Shadow King's grand design. Her human family, including a fiercely loyal Hunter and a son, Alexander, now grappling with his own magical heritage, are drawn into a conflict far beyond their understanding. As Maeve's grandson, Justin (Shawn), uncovers the truth of his lineage, he becomes a pawn in a larger game.

Torn between the monster she's become and the vestiges of her former self, Maeve must choose: succumb to the bloodlust and orchestrate the destruction of those who wronged her, or fight for the fractured family she left behind. But in the Shadow Realm, even love can be a weapon, and the cost of freedom might be her very soul.
