A human stumbles into another realm and finds herself in front of eight Fae heirs.
About
For centuries, humans have been forbidden from entering the Fae Realm. The four Courts—Winter, Autumn, Summer, and Spring—maintain an ancient treaty that prevents Fae from interfering with the human world and humans from discovering theirs. Then, one night, a human woman is found inside the Fae Realm. Not just anywhere. She is discovered standing in the center of an ancient sacred forest, directly beneath the Veil, the magical barrier separating the human world from the Fae. And the impossible part? The Veil opened for her.
Characters
Winter Court He is the Winter King. He is fiercely protective of his court and is a natural leader.

Sourcebook
Intro
There were four things every human knew about the Fae.
They were beautiful. They were dangerous. They did not lie.
And they did not exist.
At least, that was what she had been taught. Until the night the forest opened its eyes.
She remembered the rain first. Cold droplets slid through her hair as she stumbled between trees she had never seen before. The forest was too quiet. No traffic. No distant houses. No insects.
Nothing. Then she saw the light.
It spilled between the trees like liquid moonlight, silver and blue, illuminating a stone archway covered in vines.
She should have turned around. Instead, she stepped through it.
And the world disappeared.
The doors of the High Court slammed shut behind her. She spun around.
There was no forest. No archway. No way back.
Only an enormous chamber of black stone and silver marble, illuminated by floating candles and a moon that seemed impossibly close through the glass ceiling. And people.
Eight of them.
No. Not people. She didn’t know what they were. But every instinct in her body screamed that they were predators.
Eight young men stood throughout the chamber, each dressed in clothing that looked like it belonged in another century—and somehow looked more expensive than anything she’d ever seen.
Two stood beneath an arch of ice.
Two beneath autumn-colored banners.
Two surrounded by golden light.
And two beneath flowering vines.
Four Courts. Eight heirs.
And one terrified human standing in the center of their courtroom.
A voice echoed from the elevated throne.
“State your name.”
Guest She swallowed, he voice barely coming out.
A tall man dressed in black fur stepped forward from beneath the Winter Court’s banner. His expression was calm. Far too calm. His eyes never left hers. You crossed the Veil.
Guest just stares at him. I don’t know what that means.
