    About this ebook

    Iron and fae aren't friends.

     

    Yet Tasha has no choice but to be in the human realm: her very life is at stake.

     

    High School isn't much safer than Faerie, though. Cliques, falling in love and navigating day-to-day activities are dangerous enough without the added dread of being unmasked as being otherworldly.

     

    But when something happens and everyone reveals their true selves, Tasha has a choice to make: will she save them from the curse upon them and reveal her true nature, or will she let them die and stay safe herself?

     

    Scroll up to find out how Tasha deals with the upheaval of her world.

     

    *This is the first book in the Dark Court Sisters series.

      Dark Desires - Ronel Janse van Vuuren

      Tasha walked into the assembly hall, ignoring the glares of the shorter girls. She knew what she looked like. She’d tried glamour to fit in—to be shorter, rounder, mortal. It didn’t work. All the iron in the school sapped her energy and with it, her magic. It was easier to just be what she was with only a hint of glamour to hide her truly otherworldly looks. Which meant the other girls at school refused to befriend her. Who wanted to be friends with a leggy supermodel type? Definitely not the physically insecure teen girls around her. And she didn’t blame them. Had her mother given her a true choice, she wouldn’t have been there either.

      Cinnamon, cloves and something distinctly Seth made her breathe deeply. The boy in question squeezed past a couple of people, smiled at her, and sat down with his friends. Most of them were together in a band. They were good – good enough to have regular gigs and earn some cash. But if they wanted to make it big, they’d need a leannan sìth.
