A sexy, scintillating standalone novel set in the world of Maniscalco's Kingdom of the Wicked series, Throne of the Fallen finds the Prince of Envy and Miss Camilla Antonius engage in a thrillingly dangerous bargain which brings their simmering passion to the fore.
Sinner. Villain. Ruthless.
These are wicked names the Prince of Envy welcomes. They remind him what he isn't: a saint. And when a cryptic note arrives, signaling the beginning of a deadly game, he knows he'll be called much worse before it ends. Riddles, hexed objects, anonymous players, nothing will stand in his way. With a powerful artifact and his own future at stake, Envy is determined to win, though none of his meticulous plans prepare him for her, the frustrating artist who ignites his sin-and passion-like no other.
Talented. Darling. Liar.
The trouble with scoundrels and blackguards is that they haven't a modicum of honor, a fact Miss Camilla Antonius learns after one desperate mistake allows notorious rake-and satire sheet legend-Lord Phillip Vexley to blackmail her. And now it seems Vexley isn't the only scoundrel interested in securing her unique talents as a painter. To avoid Vexley's clutches and a ruinous scandal, Camilla is forced to enter a devil's bargain with Waverly Green's newest arrival, enigmatic Lord Ashford 'Syn' Synton, little expecting his game will awaken her true nature.
Together, Envy and Camilla must embark on a perilous journey through the Shifting Isles-from glittering demon courts to the sultry vampire realm, and encounters with exiled Fae-while trying to avoid the most dangerous trap of all: falling in love.
