Morally Grey Fae Prince Books

He's beautiful. He's dangerous. He might be the villain. Readers can't get enough of the morally grey fae prince, and here's why.

What makes a fae prince "morally grey"?

He does terrible things, for reasons that slowly make sense.
He's bound by rules (bargains, court politics, curses) the heroine doesn't yet understand.
His cruelty is a mask, but not entirely.
He would burn the world down for one person.

Princes readers love

Cardan from Holly Black's The Cruel Prince and Rhysand from A Court of Thorns and Roses are the most-cited examples, and Wrath from Kingdom of the Wicked is a fan favourite too.

Meet the Thornless Prince

Stefan Asheval, the Thornless Prince of The Hollow Crown, is cruel, beautiful and the only one who can stop the blight killing Helena's village. His price is a blood bargain. The question is whether the man underneath the crown is worth saving, or worth wanting.

The Hollow Crown by Helena Hope — a steamy enemies-to-lovers fae romantasy (18+).
