A Dark Fae King Walks into a Small Town...

That's not a joke. It's the beginning of an adorably cozy and spicy story that hits all the right notes. Cozy romantasy? With a morally gray shadow daddy MMC? And a kind competent FMC? Yes please!

Hannah is the mayor of a small town that is slowly dying. She also recently found out that she's a witch, but can't figure out what her magic is.

Then Severin, king of the shadow fae and a former bad guy (now in his redemption era), shows up one day promising Hannah that he will help her bring businesses and tourism back to her town as well as protect it. All she has to do is marry him for a year and agree to let the shadow fae stay in earth. Oh, and win the fae bride contest.

Their romance, though starting out as fake, quickly becomes more and more real, with Severin realizing that for the first time in his life he is caring for someone other than himself and Hannah seeing the good man that has been hidden for years under the mask of terrifying warlord.

If you love:
-shadow daddy fae
-competent and kind FMCs
-magic lessons
-cozy small towns
-smallfae hijinks
-adorable fox familiars
-grand gestures
then you will adore Faking with the Fae King.
