House of Curses is an enemies-to-lovers, slow-burn romantasy that has been called 'Fourth Wing meets Throne of Glass', from No. 1 Sunday Times bestselling author K. A. Linde.

Against all odds, Kerrigan Argon passed her dragon training. She's now an official member of the Society. Everything should be well. But somehow, nothing is.

Her dark prince, Fordham Ollivier, has disappeared in hopes to break his curse. An unwanted wedding looms in her future. And the council election draws ever nearer. An election that she's been unceremoniously nominated for.

If all of that wasn't enough, the Red Masks, an anti-half Fae, anti-human terrorist organization, are gaining ground. All because they have a spy inside the mountain, inside the Society itself. Someone is leading these monsters. And Kerrigan is determined to stop them at all costs.

Discover the fourth heart-pounding book in the Royal Houses series, House of Gods.
