Darkfever

by Karen Marie Moning

Our rating

Spice 1/5 Darkness 3/5

Spice: barely any. Darkness: dark.

Mac goes to Dublin to find out who killed her sister and finds out she can see the fae. They're nothing like the stories. The romance with Barrons takes several books and gets very dark. This was dark fae before dark fae was a shelf.
