A Demon's Plaything by Tenaya Jayne, Amelia Hutchins

3.0

 A novella set in the Fae chronicles world this has an arranged marriage mild enemies to lovers trope and I enjoyed it though it doesn't hold a candle to the longer books. This wasn't really dark in any way and the romance was actually a sweet one. 

Lilith is the shadow queen and the the night court heir after her father cannot pay the tithe to the current horde king Ryder she is bartered away in marriage to his brother Asrian for a year and a day. But Lilith hates the horde they were the ones responsible for destroying the shadow court many years prior. She holds them responsible for her mother's death so the last thing she wants is to be handfasted to one of her enemies.

This was a short read that was ok it's not my favourite out of this series and if I'm honest I wasn't that fond of Lilith finding her reasoning and attitude to be very judgemental. I mean her treatment of her sister was bloody cold and I couldn't warm to her. Asrian I liked and I thought he was patience personified I really couldn't see what he saw in Lilith other than he thought she was hot. Anyway, this was decent enough and well written just not that memorable.
