Braden Wanderer lives as an ordinary trader in Jorvik, in the Anglo-Saxon kingdom of Northumbria, until a bitterly cold night when he is kidnapped from his family’s home.
Bound and taken to an inn, he meets his fierce captors, the Sidhe—magical, savage, and beautiful beings whom most people call Faeries, neither wholly good nor wholly bad.
Long ago they used their shared magic to shape the parallel realm of Otherworld and withdrew there as humans crowded them out.
As the illegitimate son of a Sidhe king, Braden learns he must marry the handsome rival king Fionn the Fearless, sealing an alliance and setting Fionn on the path to power over all of Otherworld.
Desire for his new husband deepens even while Braden fears it is unreturned, and the deadly demons gathering around him raise a darker question about what he truly is.
With dangerous forces moving against him, only magic and a daring descent into hell may bring him through alive to love and redemption.
