And when I got back from my business trip, I was going to tell him how I felt, especially when he told me he had something exciting to tell me. But it wasn't that he loved me. He'd gotten married while I was on an overseas business trip to my worst enemy.

My husband missed our daughter's birth because he was too busy with work. Story of our lives. And the four other women in his life -- his ex-wife, his PA, his mother and his sister -- all hate me. So, I didn't think he'd care when I served him with divorce papers. Well, that got his attention.

I had warned him. My husband was working with his friend's sister to renovate her grandparents' home and get it ready to sell. She was taking more and more of his time, leaving me alone more and more. I had warned him. So on the day I realized my husband was having an emotional affair with this woman was the day I was done with him. I had warned him. And he didn't listen. But he's listening now. Now, when it's too late. He's promising to make it right, to win me back, to not stop until I've forgiven him and we're back together. I've assured him that's not happening. I had warned him. Now he was warning me: I'm going to make this right and I won't stop until you're mine again.

Butcher is the powerful president of The Lords of Mayhem Motorcycle Club who's never had a human emotion in his life. As the Sceptre of the King of the Fae, he's been hidden by the bad fae all of his life, despite not knowing fairies exist. Raine is a yoga instructor filled with emotions, and is inexplicably drawn to this dangerous man so filled with darkness. The two of them never made sense, but they still came together. Then Raine found out why Butcher pursued her. Add a surprise baby to the mix, and things go sideways. It's going to be up to Butcher, the man without emotions, to turn things around.

What happens when the King of the Fae finds his True Queen...and rejects her? Oberon (Burr) Hughes was raised knowing he was to become King of the Fae. His stunning good looks, abilities, and wealth as well as the magic he held in himself naturally drew people to him. Daisy Carmichael was the complete opposite of Burr -- poor and plain looking. From the time she'd turned 15, she'd been in love with Burr, her best friend's older brother. Burr always imagined the woman he'd end up with would be stunning and elegant. Daisy was neither, so why was he drawn to her? After rejecting her as unworthy of being his True Queen, Burr realizes a few truths about his life. And instead of Daisy undergoing a transformation, this is the story of Burr's transformation into someone worthy of his queen.
