The Nightmare Key: A Dark Fantasy Romance

With the fate of humanity on her shoulders, one woman must master her magic while desperately searching for her stolen soulmate in a nightmare realm.

Fey Masterson’s been scouring the Shroud for her bonded mate for weeks. Each night she closes her eyes and enters the nightmare realm in search of Cillian, who was viciously abducted by the ruthless vampire Rasputin and locked away in Death’s menagerie. But the hunt is beginning to take its toll on Fey as she struggles to control the newly awakened magic within her and battles the increasingly intrusive thoughts in her mind.

His trap set, Rasputin knows it won’t be long before Fey comes looking for her love. He’s put a bounty on her head and seeks to destroy her power. Soon, she’s warding off danger at every turn. When she learns of Cillian’s whereabouts, she makes a bargain to gain access to Death’s collection of souls. But the route takes her through liminal rooms that further diminish her abilities, and she must lean on the strength of her chosen family and summon every magical affinity she can muster to make it through.

Meanwhile, Rasputin and the Ancient Lores race to carry out the Shadow Rite, thus unleashing an army of nightmares on all humanity. But to stop all hell from breaking loose, Fey must first let the ritual be completed. And while she risked everything to keep her fated mate safe and by her side, will there be enough time to reverse the rift that threatens to tear their worlds apart?

Tropes include: forbidden love, dark magic, secret identity, mentor/mentee, and fated mates.
