About this ebook

Immortality has a way of rewriting fate.

A high fantasy paranormal romance by NYT Award Winning Author Michelle M. Pillow


Merrick, the dark elfin King of Valdis, was once heir to all that is good, a prince of happiness and pleasure. Now, cursed as the ruler of mischief and king of necessary evil, he stands trapped between the Blessed kingdom of his estranged brother and the ruthless King Lucien of the Damned, who is determined to lure Merrick’s soul into oblivion.

Damnation is winning.

Before he is lost forever, Merrick craves one final taste of the happiness he once owned. When a mortal woman awakens an obsession he cannot control, he realizes he doesn’t just want her. He needs to claim her.

But the line between fear and desire begins to blur…

Lady Juliana of Bellemare always dreamed of adventure, but she never expected the shadows to answer. When her fiancé is murdered and the village children vanish, she is thrust into a world of lethal seduction and ancient magic.

The choice is simple: surrender to him or die.

Desperate to save the missing, she crosses into the immortal realm — a land of beautiful nightmares ruled by a king who offers her a single, soul-shattering bargain.

Will Juliana yield to the fire between them or burn Merrick’s kingdom to ash?


King of the Unblessed is Labyrinth meets A Court of Thorns and Roses—an epic, dark fantasy romance brimming with brooding antiheroes, seductive intrigue, and enemies-to-lovers heat. Perfect for readers who crave morally gray love stories, wickedly seductive kings, and fierce heroines who refuse to be tamed.

As this was advertised a romance, I have to give it 3 stars. As a paranormal adventure, I would give it 4 stars. This is primarily a story about a family who discover the immortal world and the fact that they are blessed by the Blessed King. The brothers enter the immortal realm to save their sister Juliana after she is supposedly kidnapped by the Unblessed King, Merrick. This story is told in a six POV. Some questions are left unanswered, maybe for the rest of the series.

NOT my usual genre - don't really like historical romance as I'm too much of a Historian!! However, as it was by Michelle Pillow, one of my automatic buy authors I decided to give it a go. Set in the early part of the 2nd millennium on a non-existent shore in England it was easy to get lost in this new world, as there were no real landmarks to get you stuck in the landscape. It's most definitely well written and the wording and setting certainly don't jar and fit with the time period.

Every author is allowed a one off. Michelle M. Pillow has always been a solid read for me, but this book never grabbed me. I never connected with the characters, the story was convoluted, I just couldn't finish this one. Sorry, not for me. I received a free copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review.
