Enchanting the Fae Queen
29 January 2026Synopsis
Enchanting the Fae Queen is the second instalment in Stephanie Burgis' irreverent and sparkling Queens of Villainy series, in which a seductive fae queen meets her unexpected match in the enemy empire’s valiant general.
Queen Lorelei is a notorious fae seductress, with a trail of broken hearts in her wake. But behind her glamorous lifestyle and sparkling mask lurks a dangerously intelligent woman who’d do anything to keep her people safe, even kidnap the empire’s most famous hero.
The virtuous high general Gerard de Moireul represents all that is moral and true. He has to – after his parents were executed for treason. The last thing he needs is the Queen of Balravia, who showers glitter and rainbow-colored sparkles everywhere she goes without the slightest regard for good taste, decorum or royal dignity.
They’re opposites in every way, but when they’re swept up together in a grand - and deadly - fae tournament, they discover all of each other’s most hidden truths - and how perfectly they might be suited for each other after all.

A new Stephanie Burgis book is always a joy, and Enchanting the Fae Queen continues the trend with one of my favorite microtropes: a clever woman who is underestimated by everyone around her – except the enemy general she abducts. Add in the perfect blend of fantasy and romance and the result is delightful!
I’ve yet to read a Stephanie Burgis book I haven’t adored, and Wooing the Witch Queen is no exception. With a cast of delightful characters, a wonderfully fierce heroine and heaps of wit, this is a warm and lovely story with a big heart
If you’re looking for the perfect blend of swoon-worthy romance and delightful fantasy world-building, Wooing the Witch Queen should be your next read. Filled with found family, cozy vibes and characters who care deeply about one another, I blazed through it at record speed because I couldn’t wait to get to the happily ever after – and Burgis delivered! I adored it, and I can’t wait to see what book two holds!
Wooing the Witch Queen is spectacular! Full of charm, wit and magic, with two pitch-perfect main characters and a swoon-worthy romance, it’s absolutely irresistible. I loved it!
