Locked inside an iron mask by the King of the Fey, Sable Erwyn Sylvana has waited ten years for freedom—and to take revenge on those who cursed her. But with every second that passes inside the mask, her soul begins to fade farther away. The memories of her loved ones and her former life become a blur, and soon she cannot even remember her own name.

As the princess, Avalon Edenstone knows how important it is to obey her father, the King of the Fey. So when she finds a mask while wandering the catacombs beneath the House of Ice, she knows exactly how much trouble she would be in if she took it—never mind agreeing to free the mysterious warrior whose soul is trapped inside it. But Avalon is more than familiar with how it feels to be trapped, so she doesn’t hesitate to help the warrior whose thoughts begin to accompany her own—and who has an uncanny ability to save her from danger precisely when she needs it.

With the help—and muscle—of Hadrian Courts, the Captain of the Guard, Avalon travels land and sea, collecting seven magical jewels that have the power to undo Sable’s curse. But the king will stop at nothing to take back what was stolen from him through violence and vengeance. And as he closes in on them, Avalon discovers she is not only on the verge of losing her freedom, but also her life…as an ancient evil believed to be dead is stirring awake. One that could bring life as they know it to a sudden and terrifying end.

Kayla Edwards

In the ever-expanding realm of fantasy romance, Kayla Edwards stands out—not with spectacle, but with quiet intensity. Her stories don’t clamor for attention; they pull you in slowly, with the promise of secrets just beneath the surface. Best known for her House of Devils series, Edwards crafts worlds where monsters wear charming smiles, love is laced with danger, and power always comes at a cost.

It all began, fittingly, in high school. While most teens scribbled in margins, Kayla was building City of Gods and Monsters, a sprawling urban fantasy set in a city teetering on the edge of ruin and revelation. That novel would become the cornerstone of a beloved series, which has since grown to include City of Souls and Sinners, City of Lies and Legends, and the anticipated City of Smoke and Brimstone. Each installment deepens the stakes, drawing readers into a world of ancient secrets, forbidden magic, and slow-burning romance.

Kayla’s style is marked by tension that simmers rather than explodes. Her characters are layered—flawed, often morally ambiguous, and irresistibly human, even when they’re anything but. Love in her books isn't easy or clean; it’s fraught with choice, consequence, and vulnerability. That emotional complexity, combined with richly imagined settings and dark, lyrical prose, has earned her a devoted readership that spans fantasy and romance fans alike.

Raised in Texas, Kayla found inspiration in myth, folklore, and the kind of stories that left just enough unsaid to make the imagination race. Her academic background in English and creative writing sharpened her instinct for structure and style, but it’s her emotional insight that brings her books to life. Whether she’s writing about angels with blood on their hands or cities ruled by magic and memory, her work always circles back to questions of identity, trust, and survival.

Outside the page, Kayla shares her love for storytelling across BookTok, Instagram, and Pinterest, where she connects with readers and fellow writers. She lives with her husband and a growing collection of fantasy novels, and finds joy in quiet moments—especially the kind that spark new story ideas.

For fans of fantasy romance who crave morally grey characters, emotionally charged plots, and worldbuilding that feels both vast and intimate, Kayla Edwards is quickly becoming a name to watch. Her stories don’t just entertain—they stay with you, long after the final chapter.
