Una and her sister grew up being told wondrous and terrifying stories of the Fae, unearthly beings who can help or harm. The older they get, the less they believe, but before they grow too old, they try one last time to summon the beings. Unlike every time before, it works, but they do not meet helpful Fae, and are instead taken and trapped in the Fae realm.
Suddenly thrust into servitude and an eternal war between two rival courts, surrounded by magic and deadly court intrigue, Una decides she'll do whatever it takes for her and her sister to survive. While learning to navigate the unpredictable whims of the princes she serves, she gains unimpeded access to rumors and secrets: a currency more precious than gold.
But when the opportunity for liberation and vengeance arises, she seizes it, even if it means placing her fate in the hands of the Unseelie Court: an infamous faction of Fae renowned for their cruelty.All Rights Reserved

In the Land of Fae ♔ (gxg) by complexcrimson

It had always been just Nyx and her mother. Growing up poor in a small cottage on the hillside meant there wasn't much to do for most of her life. Eighteen years of unchanging boredom evaporated before her eyes when Nyx is suddenly thrown into the world of Fae-creatures with the bodies of humans, the wings of eagles, and elemental powers like none known to humankind. When light is shed upon the truth about her absent father, and when Nyx realizes what danger the Fae people are in, she unites with them to overthrow the evil Ice Queen and end her reign of terror. Falling for their leader was the last thing she expected. [girlxgirl] [warning: depictions of action and violence]

Amongst the Waking Dreams by raeanngoodman

Nymeria Verne has always loved fantasy books. She loves the mystical lands, the fantastical creatures, the happy fairy tale endings...but what she loves most about them is that they are nothing like the real thing. Nymeria was raised in the land of faeries, constantly visiting the mortal realm with its urban cities but never understanding them. As a human living among fae, she has grown up always knowing that she is not pretty enough, not strong enough, not ever enough-for who could compare to the ethereal fae? She doesn't belong among either the faeries or the humans, and yet she loves her home and is desperate to find her place among the Seelie Courts. Despite the beauty and draw of the faerie world, there is a sinister undertone to it, and Nymeria knows that she can never be safe as a fragile human there. Not even her strenuous relationship with the faerie she refuses to call 'father' could help her. Her only chance of security and belonging is to one day come of age and become a faerie's bride, but at seventeen years old Nymeria refuses to accept marriage as the only option. In her search for her own path and independence, she stumbles across a prince of fae that offers all the solutions to her problems. She becomes his servant and agrees to spy for him in return for protection and a place in his court when he becomes High King. As a mortal, Nymeria can do something the fae can't: lie-a trait that the prince sees an opportunity in. Along the way, she meets a mortal boy, Collin, that was raised among fae just as she was. As her reluctant feelings for him grow, he has her questioning her choices and what it is she actually wants. Perhaps leaving the land of fae would be her better option... But her prince has no intention of letting her go.

Surviving The Dark *Re-write* by CassandyAnnabell

This is a rewrite of my already completed book of the same name. You don't need to read that to be able to read this, though there are some differences between them. Seelie and Unseelie Fae have always had a strained relationship. A war between the two begins and thirteen years later Isadora Dawn believes she is the last Seelie Fae being hunted by the Unseelie. Never staying still for long, she runs, always moving between cities, staying away from nature if she can. Until one day. Stranded in a town home to a nature preserve, things that thought were lost are found and a life Isadora thought she could never get again, makes itself known. But with her guard down is Surviving The Dark still possible?

Chasing Emma by DenaNicotra

One thing she's sure of, she's not about to let him get his hands on their daughter. Passing as a human and hiding her abilities to keep from being discovered isn't easy. She's broke and exhausted but determined. Emma soon finds herself in Salt Bend, Missouri. She gets a job as a waitress in a café. He's getting closer to finding her, but she may have more protection than she realizes.

The Rose and the Sinbound by KrystaFae

Rhosyn's Journal Entry: I find myself turning to ink and parchment as if words can fortify the brittle pieces of my heart. There is something in the rhythm of verse, in the gentle pulse of poetry, that soothes the ache no court's promises can touch. "In shadows deep where secrets lie, A rose blooms still, beneath cold sky. Her thorns are sharp, her petals frail, Against the storm, her courage pale." Do I write of myself, or of some other creature trapped in a story not her own? Sometimes it feels as though I am the shadow and the rose both, caught between a world that demands obedience and a heart that refuses to yield. How bitter it is to dream of freedom while knowing my wings are clipped, bound by alliances that do not care for the scars they leave behind. "A crown of thorns, a silken mask, A future bound in hollowed glass. Yet hope persists, a trembling flame, Defiant still, against the pain." Hope. A foolish word. A fragile thing that clings to the edges of my soul, like a candle flickering in the winds. I write these lines as though hope is a friend, but truly, it's a ghost-a haunting I cannot rid myself of. In the quiet hours of dawn, it murmurs, stirs, and breathes life back into me. It is a torment and a salvation, this hope. "One step, one breath, one whispered plea, Against the night, she will not flee. In silence kept, her song unfolds, A tale unwritten yet, untold." Perhaps there is a power in words, in laying bare the fragile threads that hold me together. To write is to bleed without consequence, to free myself, if only for a moment, from the binds of the court. And so, I keep writing.

Vengeance Throne (The Callistra Chronicles #2) by ChloeFairchild

In the sequel to Treachery Queen, the Seelie Court has declared its war on the world, and nothing will ever be the same. It has only been a week since Pasiphae of Eo entered a fake marriage alliance with the Seelie Crown Prince in a bid to forestall his mother's coming invasion on Medeis, Pasiphae's homeland. Now, those who were once enemies have disappeared into the shadows, while new contenders have clawed their way into power. Amidst the chaos, there is only one possible outcome that ends well for Medeis: Seth must have the Seelie throne, and Pasiphae takes it upon herself to ensure it. Meanwhile, Circe of Eo has turned diplomat. The Unseelie Queen knows that invasion is coming, and is desperate to snatch the Isles, where the humans make their home. To keep it from her grasp, the witches must conquer the land first, for the humans' own good. But the Isles has secrets of its own, and if Circe isn't careful, she may be swallowed by the rising tide. From a perilous journey into a country that kills all who enter, to a mission into the Seelie Court during its midnight sun, the two sisters will do anything to protect Medeis. Heads will roll, hearts will be broken, and if the world is to fall a second time, then so be it.

You Can't Run From The Dark by faithieflower

(Dark Court Fae Book 1) Dessa doesn't believe in the faeries that her aunt raised her to be afraid of. But her nightmares are filled with them, and when she's awake, she's still plagued by a phobia of faeries, despite her disbelief in their existence. She thinks that her aunt's dark faery tales and ominous warnings warped her when she was young, and now she is left with fears that aren't rational or sane. Her aunt had sheltered her too much - she had been so overprotective that she'd kept Dessa from experiencing a normal life. When her aunt passes away, leaving Dessa with her mountainous debt, with no practical experience on how to take care of herself, and worst of all, the fear that her aunt drilled into her head that faeries were a very real danger - she's left with no other option than to venture out into the dangerous world if she wants to survive. However, Dessa soon finds that there might have been more truth to her crazy aunt's rambling warnings than she wanted to believe.
