An enthralling cosy fantasy where a determined princess seeks out her fae nemesis. Brimming with magic, enemies-to-lovers romance and found family feelings.

How To Find A Nameless Fae follows Princess Gisele, who has spent her life waiting for the fae sorcerer her mother promised in exchange for a gold-spinning spell, but he never appears. As the unfulfilled fairytale-debt wreaks havoc with chaotic magic, she decides to confront him herself.

Instead of an evil sorcerer, she discovers a scholarly, nameless lord of a magical house, uninterested in her demands. Magically bound by the fairytale-debt, they must work together to find his lost name to break the bond.

Their journey is fraught with tension and unexpected camaraderie, as they navigate the magic that binds them, with tempers flaring and alliances forming.
