From New York Times bestselling author Mary E. Pearson comes a thrilling romantic fantasy full of dangerous fae, dark secrets, and addictive romance
After losing both their parents, Bristol Keats and her sisters struggle to stay afloat in their small, quiet town of Bowskeep. When Bristol begins to receive letters from an “aunt” she’s never heard of who promises she can help, she reluctantly agrees to meet—and discovers that everything she thought she knew about her family is a lie. Even her father might still be alive, not killed but kidnapped by terrifying creatures to a whole other realm—the one he is from. Desperate to save her father and find the truth, Bristol journeys to a land of gods and fae and monsters. Pulled into a dangerous world of magic and intrigue, she makes a deadly bargain with the fae leader, Tyghan. But what she doesn't know is that he's the one who drove her parents to live a life on the run. And he is just as determined as she is to find her father—dead or alive.

About the author Mary E. Pearson is a New York Times and international bestselling author, celebrated for her sweeping fantasy worlds and unforgettable characters. She first captivated readers with her Remnant Chronicles trilogy—The Kiss of Deception, The Heart of Betrayal, and The Beauty of Darkness—a series acclaimed for its intricate world-building and powerful heroine. She later expanded that universe with the Dance of Thieves duology, further cementing her reputation as one of the foremost voices in young adult fantasy.
The Courting of Bristol Keats marks Pearson’s much-anticipated adult debut. Written from her home in California, the novel is a return to the type of magical storytelling that first inspired her as a child: tales of other realms, gods, monsters, and forbidden bargains. Pearson’s work is characterized by its blend of romance, political intrigue, and mythic imagination, appealing to both YA fans and adult readers venturing into her newest worlds.
About The Courting of Bristol Keats
In her first adult novel, Pearson introduces readers to Bristol Keats, a woman who leaves behind her quiet life to search for her missing father in a realm where gods, fae, and ancient magic hold sway. When she strikes a perilous bargain with the enigmatic fae king, Tyghan, Bristol finds herself entangled in a world where desire and danger walk hand in hand.
Drawing inspiration from Celtic mythology, the novel explores timeless themes of family, sacrifice, and the cost of power, while weaving a deeply romantic tale of attraction and trust tested at every turn. Unlike her earlier works, The Courting of Bristol Keats was written without a prior publishing contract, a passion project that became the first volume of a planned duology. Its sequel, The Last Wish of Bristol Keats, will continue Bristol’s journey, promising even greater stakes and deeper magic.
