The B. Dalton Romantasy Book Club turns to The Sweetest Fiend by Raven Kennedy, a dark twist on the Pied Piper that weaves perilous magic, forced proximity, sharp banter, and a love story with world altering stakes. The discussion takes place at B. Dalton Bookseller in Oviedo Mall. In this tale, the world once split apart and nine Banes emerged. The Core fae defeated them, but each left behind a devastating Plague and other lingering consequences. The heroine, born half Bane and half fae, is scorned for her very existence and has learned how to endure. When a fresh Plague strikes her city, the Piper arrives to stop it, but his aid demands a price. One hundred thirty people must go with him, and she is among those taken. Determined to return to the family who depends on her, she looks for a way out, while he refuses to let her leave. An intense pull grows between them as his magic calls to her and something in her blood answers, leaving her to wonder whether the greater danger lies in his power or in her own heart. Conversation will delve into morally gray choices, dangerous attraction, monstrous magic, captive romance, who hurt you moments, the only one bed setup, and even the one horse and one tent trope. Please note that The Sweetest Fiend is an adult dark fantasy romance with mature themes and explicit content, and it is the first book in a duology.
