Tangled Roots
About this ebook
In this lush, sin-stained sequel to the Sunday Times bestselling Savage Blooms, Eileen, Finley, and Nicola embark on a quest to rescue kidnapped Adam from the faery underworld, plunging into a centuries-old power struggle between humans and the fae.
There is only one rule they must follow in the faery court, where pain and pleasure are elevated to art: entertain the king, or suffer the consequences of his boredom.
Getting close to the enigmatic and alluring faery king isn't just a matter of survival; it is the only hope Eileen and her lovers have of escaping Craigmar's curse.
Adam, Nicola, Finley and Eileen must scheme and seduce their way through court, all in the name of breaking the others free. But it's so hard to want to be a hero when the faery king offers them each the fulfilment of their wildest desires. . .for a price.
Praise for the Unearthly Delights trilogy:
'A drizzly, moody, and lustrously carnal rendition of a storybook tale, Savage Blooms is the holy grail for lovers of dark academia and faery magic alike. By the time I got to the epilogue, I was ready to bite into the pages like they were made of faery fruit, just so I'd never have to leave' Sierra Simone, author of Priest
'With Savage Blooms, Gibson cements herself as one of the strongest and most unique voices in gothic romance. This dangerous and decadent subversion of a found family is fresh, unabashedly queer, and gripping from the very first rain-soaked page. Gibson is a ferociously talented writer at the top of her game' Sydney Shields, author of The Honey Witch
'A dark and sensuous gothic tale where jewelled prose and mysterious folklore fuse in a heady, intoxicating potion. Gibson is a master of seduction' Maddie Martinez, author of The Maiden and her Monster
'Weaving a lush tapestry that is at turns diabolically sexy and unbearably anguished, Gibson draws readers into this darkly decadent fairy tale where love is the most poisoned fruit of all. Savage Blooms is a portrait of an author at the top of her game, ushering in a new standard for gothic romance' K. M. Enright, author of Mistress of Lies
'Savage Blooms unfurls with languid, deliberate intent-lush, seductive, and laced with thorns. Every petal tempts and every page cuts in S. T. Gibson's darkly sensual-and yes, savage-modern fairy tale.' Lyra Selene, author of A Feather So Black
'A darkly decadent descent into desire. A masterful exploration of faerie bargains, ancestral burdens, and power struggles woven between the pages of a thrilling tale you can't help but be swept up in' Hazel McBride, author of A Fate Forged in Fire
