Burden of Faete
About
The line between triumph and tragedy is as fragile as a twist of faete.
Ryanne’s quest to unearth the elusive spark of creation within Titus that holds the fae’s salvation isn’t going exactly as planned. After all Ryanne wasn’t supposed to fall for the pirate. Her fae mentors warned her she could lose her humanity if she get too close to the bradaís, eternal foes of the fae. But how do they expect her to complete her mission without getting too involved? It would be so much easier if Titus didn’t make her feel safe … and excited.
Titus seeks solace in Ryanne’s arms, the one person who can soothe his darkness within. Haunted by his past, he is determined to remain hidden, away from the relentless fae and the ruthless bradaís alike. Confronting either could spell disaster for the fragile peace he’s found with Ryanne.
Ryanne finds herself ensnared in a deadly game of fae and bradaís. The conflict threatens to crush her spirit and twist her fate with a darkness that is beyond anything she’s encountered before. Can she conquer her fears and stand against the most powerful of the bradaís while still protecting her beloved fae?
After all, she is no longer caílin—a child to the fae. Yet, it seems she may no longer be entirely human either.
Praise for this book
Burden of Faete dives even deeper into the enchanting (and at times heart-wrenching) world Ligia de Wit introduced in Bradaís Pledge, and this sequel is everything a second book should be: bigger, bolder, and richer in both emotion and lore.
From the moment I cracked open Book 2, I was reminded exactly why I love Ryanne. She’s stubborn, sassy, and refreshingly real—even in a world of magic and pirates and ancient fae prophecies. Following her POV is an absolute joy. She brings just the right amount of humor and heart to every scene, and her internal battles, especially as she navigates her feelings for Titus, add emotional layers that really stick with you.
