Why these tropes fit
In Victorian-inspired 1848 London, controlled by an immortal fae queen who tricked her way onto the throne, Ivy Benton enters a competition for Prince Bram's hand, hoping a crown will restore her family's fallen status and fix her nonexistent marriage prospects. As she navigates the glittering balls and the queen's increasingly vicious trials, she receives help from the rakish Prince Emmett, Bram's brother, who promises to help her win his brother's heart. But as the season sweeps her away, Ivy finds herself falling for Emmett instead, while discovering that all faerie bargains come with a cost she may have discovered too late.
