Part of the itch.io bundle

Following her Mam’s death, Krystal Monarain has turned to escapism, throwing herself into the fantastic stories she was told as a child and the strange, recurring dreams she has at night. But she never believed Mam’s tales that her birth mother wasn’t human until Draqa, a stranger from her dreams, appears in life and tells her she’s part fae. So she does the unthinkable and chases him into Arai, the realm where the fae have lived unbothered for centuries. For Draqa, however, Krystal’s arrival in Arai means execution, and he must do everything he can to keep from being caught.

Tropes
The fae but different, platonic grumpy sunshine, multi-pov (x3), desiderium, morally grey characters, redemption arc
