Welcome to the darkly romantic world of The Halfling Saga by BookTok sensation, Melissa Blair

“By King’s Law, all those of impure blood are considered wards of the Crown.” —The Halfling Decree

Keera is a killer. As the king’s Blade, she is the most talented spy in the kingdom of Elverath and the king’s favored assassin. When a mysterious figure moves against the Crown, Keera is called upon to hunt down the so-called Shadow. When her search takes her to the magical lands of the Fae, she learns that not all is what it seems. . . and neither is the Shadow. The more she uncovers about the secrets of the Fae, the more she learns about herself, and she can’t help but wonder who her enemy truly is: the king who eradicated the Fae from the Elverath and conscripted her people, the Halflings, into servitude. . . or the Shadow who threatens the peace and awakens a soul-scorching passion within her. As she searches for answers, Keera is haunted by a promise she made long ago as well as her own personal demons. To keep her word and honor her people, Keera must save not only herself, but an entire kingdom as well.

Books in this set include: A Broken Blade, A Shadow Crown, A Vicious Game, and An Honored Vow.
