Hiya! Couple of things from the author(s). . .

1. This is the first book in the Winter trilogy, which means not everything will be wrapped up just yet. Gotta wait for books 2 & 3 to have that. Upside? B2 comes out August 31st. Huzzah 🥳

2. We’ll be doing every season starting from winter. Each season is a different couple. While there is an over arching story across the planned 8-9 books, each season will wrap up that individual couple’s romance/storyline.

3. We have a super cool (and kinda spicy) prequel story you can read for free here: https://BookHip.com/HCRSVAA

4. We mostly hang out on Instagram and Patreon. You can find links for all that and more here: https://linktr.ee/kelandaurelia

If you post about it on social media we love to be tagged (as long as it’s not mean) lol. 😆

Thank you so much for your interest in the Faeted Seasons series. 💕

If you are a cat owner, you are going to love this book for the familiar alone!

Throw in some fae, secrets, and shared dreams and you get this book!

Beneath the Cursed Veil the Aurelia Jane and Kel Carpenter
Book 1 of the Faeted Seasons: Winter duet
Releasing 4/25

Thank you to The Nerd Fam for entrusting me with an early copy.

Modern day romantasy
Multiple POV, masquerade meet cute, enemies to lovers, he kidnaps her but she started it, touch her and 💀, only one bed, snarky cat familiar, dream sharing🥵, fated mates, morally grey everyone, fae royalty, cursed land and prophecy, fae and many other magical beings, romance reader gets her snarly MMC in real life, cliffhanger!

Meera has a talent for finding items, and the need for money for her beloved antique store. Which is why she keeps taking jobs from a shady leprechaun to find him items. But her world is turned upside down when the next job he gives her is not for an item, but for a person!

While struggling to keep his starving, cursed kingdom afloat, Vareck spends his free time searching the realms for the female who haunts his dreams. But when she shows up only to swipe his nephew, he ends up capturing her - not quite the introduction he had in mind.

I enjoyed the beginning of Meera and Vareck's journey! They started out a bit rough and it was fun to watch them banter and fall for each other. And the snarky cat familiar! Love him so much! There was a lot still unanswered and the end and it was definitely left on a cliffhanger making me want the next book now!

So after this girl told you she can find anything and anyone with her distinct magic, the first thing you do is force a necklace on her that makes her magic less so she has no way to use that magic needed to help find a person she kidnapped. Not only that, but you enlist the help of the one person who hired the FC and put a magical bind on her in the first place. And this was after she told you it’s someone close but she can’t speak of it due to the magical bind and she burst into a cussing rage when she noticed you were asking the person who hired her for help to find the person kidnapped. And the FC just… forgives him. Because he’s hot. And she’s horny.

The mental gymnastics of the whole situation is cringe and irritating. Not only do I think these characters are dumber than a box of rocks, but now I feel like the author(s) think me, as in the reader, is too 🙄

I finished this one sometime ago, so I don't remember much about this one. Other than it has a fated mate trope and faes. There was also a cliffhanger in the end there. Other than that, I guess it was an okay fantasy romance, I guess.

Honestly, I wouldn't have much to say about a book if it lands on the mediocre or okayish scale. And this one was definitely is.

[MC · Rating 2 out of 5]

2.5 / 5.0

This was very meh. The characters weren’t interesting, the history of the curse on faerie wasn’t consistent, and the pacing was mediocre. I really wanted there to be yearning and action and mystery, but it resolved the first plot point almost immediately, then meandered to the next conflict with cozy day-in-the-life pacing and no romance, and then just rolled down to the end in an anticlimactic cliffhanger. And the dialogue is mind-numbingly bad.

Anyways, I won’t be continuing and I won’t be getting the SE. It’s not worth it which is too bad since it’s a beautiful book. I am disappointed since other series by this author duo are pretty good.

Until Next Time,
MC

J'ai passé un très bon moment avec ce premier tome (Kel Carpenter ♥ ). Ce n'est pas une lecture qui changera la face du monde mais qui propose juste ce qu'il faut (et ce qu'on est en droit d'attendre d'une romantasy), à savoir une romance pleine de tension, des faes, une malédiction, de l'action et des personnages qui se complètent parfaitement.

Meera est chasseuse de primes et propriétaire d'une brocante mais elle est fauchée et accepte une mission lucrative sans se douter qu'elle devra enlever un prince du royaume des faes. Le piège va donc se refermer sur elle quand le roi débarque pour la kidnapper à son tour. Varek est cependant en transe depuis qu'il a retrouvé les traces de cette femme qui hante ses rêves depuis toujours.

Alors on peut tout deviner et avoir en partie raison. Mais l'intrigue est cependant bien réactive et entraînante pour nous égarer ci et là. J'ai trouvé le rythme et l'action en cohésion totale. Le roman n'est pas bien long non plus donc on ne s'ennuie pas. L'univers est assez sommaire et les personnages ont une bonne alchimie. Je suis globalement séduite. Et c'est tout à fait votre style si vous aimez les romances pleines de tension, les héros possessifs mais protecteurs, les héroïnes qui ont de la répartie et les compagnons animaux hilarants.

La bise !

Omg! Was hooked from the very first line. Loved the banter between all the characters. Not a fantasy romance that is common. It is modernized to the point it talks about cell phones and even the clothing that is described is more like what we wear today. Highly recommend to read. Looking forward to the next book.

Thank you to Nerd Fam for gifting me the eARC for an honest review. This book was easy to read fantasy. This book pulled me in right away its fast paced format and the fated mates- Meera & Varek. Oh and I can't forget the sidekick and the best car ever! Meera is really relateable in her stubbornness to accept help from her family which leads her into complicated situations. I love the banter between Meera & Varek. I enjoyed the novel because it keeped me wanting more. I just think it needed some umph. I am looking forward to see where the story takes us!

[JensBookishWays · Rating 4 out of 5]

Thank you to the Nerd Fam and the authors for the eARC of Beneath the Cursed Veil!

I COULD NOT PUT THIS BOOK DOWN! What did the authors put in this, crack?! Such a fun read!

All of the characters were funny and interesting. Corvo stole the show with his big personality! Varek, the Fae King, was refreshing. Instead of being a typical crazy powerful/power hungry/cunning and cruel Fae King, he was like a slightly lost golden retriever, reluctant to have power. I really liked Lou/Lucien. He was such an interesting character!

The pacing was consistent throughout, with this story keeping my interest the whole time. I had to know what happened next!

The writing style was smooth and easy to digest. I got Assistant to the Villain vibes while reading this story.

World Building/Imagery: I would have liked to feel more immersed in the Fairie world. Most things had high level descriptions. I wanted more info on the types of magic and creatures.

I appreciated the curvy FMC to represent us plus sized readers.

This book had great spice. I would rate this book 2/5 🌶️

The plot seemed focused mostly on the fated mates aspect of the story. I would have liked to see other plot point resolution such as a plan toward finding the Prince, how to even start trying to break the curse, and Meera’s familiy’s reaction to her disappearance.

Tropes in this story:
- fated mates
- forced proximity/one bed
- touch her and 💀

Overall, I am giving this book four stars! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

[Chiara | wordsbychiara · Rating 4 out of 5]

Thank you to the authors for gifting me a paperback copy. Opinions are my own.

This book was such a delight, and it has one of my favorite premises!

BENEATH THE CURSED VEIL is the first book in the Faeted Seasons series, and it follows a bounty hunter who is offered a job to steal the prince. However, things go sideways once she crosses into Faerie and finds King Vareck waiting for her. He's as cursed as his lands, but he's also the man who's been appearing in Meera's dreams—and she's been appearing in his!

Vareck also has a talking cat familiar who calls him "can opener" and trips people out of windows 🤭 He was such a highlight of this reading experience.

I DEVOURED this book! Meera has an amazing relationship with her sister (an immediate thumbs up in my book 👍) and she has an awesome power that allows her to find ANYTHING, which is how she manages to be the best in her business. Undeniably though I was super curious about the romance, and it did not disappoint. Meera and Vareck had a really fun dynamic. They were curious about one another, but also distrustful, and their banter was SPOT ON. I found myself kicking my feet more times than I can count, and their scenes were PACKED with intense moments.

Here are some tropes you might enjoy:
- fated mates
- shared dreams
- sassy cat familiar who is actually a god
- possessive MMC
- fae royalty
- touch her and…

[Artemissia G · Rating 3 out of 5]

Le gros plus de cette histoire et de ce premier tome, c'est l'humour omniprésent. J'ai bien rigolé devant certaines scènes que j'ai trouvé hilarante.
On est sur une base de romantasy classique mais ce qui fait le charme de ce récit sont les protagonistes, Meera et Vareck ainsi que le familier de ce dernier, un chat Main Coon qui n'a pas sa langue dans sa poche.
J'ai passé un bon moment avec ce premier tome mais la fin m'a laissé dubitative avec l'arrivée de nouveaux POV.
Bref, à voir avec la suite !

Thank you to The Nerd Fam for the gifted eARC in exchange for an honest review. A unique fae romantasy with action, fated mates, and the best cat I have ever read! This was cute and witty as well as sweet and a little angsty at times. The ending definitely left me waiting for book 2.

[Kirsten | Bookish.kir · Rating 5 out of 5]

I don’t know what the authors put into this book, but I could not put it down! It was fast paced, entertaining and the banter was top notch, not only between Meera and Vareck, but also Vareck and Corvo (Vareck’s familar). I can’t even tell you how many times they had be laughing out loud. I am so happy to see that we only have to wait until June for the second half of the duet because I’m hooked and I need answers as well as more Meera, Vareck and the crew ASAP!

Thank you to the authors and NerdFam for the eARC!

Tropes: fated mates, he falls first, blood bonds, fae

I'm not a huge fan of when characters meet and there's immediate attraction. I get that they have been in each other's dreams...but like...Noone falls THAT fast.

[Eren Valentine · Rating 4 out of 5]

Thank you to the NerdFam and the Author for a copy of this free eARC.

This book was a lot of fun. I had a huge chunk of laughs through a lot of it. I definitely found the world to be intriguing and unique.

Beneath the Cursed Veil is a fast paced fantasy, has plenty of twists, leaves you at the edge of your seat, and makes you keep turning the page. The world and story were engrossing, and once you add in Corvo the King's familiar cat you get even more going on. Without Corvo though I'm not sure how our FMC and MMC would have handled anything. Maybe he's the real hero of the story. XD

We have a our FMC Meera who's adopted into her family who are all into underground fighting/gambling, while she just wants to own and run an antiques shop. Sadly that doesn't pan out as well as she wants it to and so she starts working with a Leprechaun with magical contracts to make her mortgage. She accepts her contracts, and realizes she just might kill him this time..... Oh right, did I mention she's been having dreams of a mysterious male for 4 years and has no clue who he is but she does know his voice? No. Okay, well there's that to. And with that she's off to Faerie where things quickly go sideways and she ends up in situations that she couldn't even dream of.

If you want a story that's fast paced, fun, has some spice in it where it doesn't take over the entire plot, has a sassy cat familiar and a feisty female this could be the story for you. I can't wait to see what happens in book 2..... Oh by the way, watch out for the cliff.

[Kristina Brutsch · Rating 5 out of 5]

What to expect:
Enemies to lovers
Touch her & ☠️
Forced proximity
Fated mates
Familiars 🐈

Meera is quite gifted, and she utilizes her talent to track down rare items in exchange for money. The leprechaun she works with has a job that offers high compensation, but little does she know that the job entails capturing the Prince of the Faerie realm.

The night she shows up in Faerie, there is a ball at the Kingdom where she plans to kidnap the Prince. King Vareck senses Meera and realizes she is the woman he has been dreaming about for the past 4 years. While running the kingdom and trying to keep the realm afloat, he has been searching for her.

Meera also has the same dreams, but didn't believe it was real because his face was never revealed, just the sound of his voice. The moment they meet, things suddenly take a turn for the worse. He ends up kidnapping her to find out what happened to Prince Damm and also to learn more about her.

"Weird how I could want to strangle him during the day, but each night, my dreams were filled with him. Every delicious inch of him. An ache throbbed between my legs, and I squeezed them together."

Could they be fated mates because they dream about one another? Who paid Meera to kidnap Prince Damon? What do they want?

[Thais • tata.lifepages • · Rating 5 out of 5]

Meera is a fae living in the human world, working as a bounty hunter using her unique magical ability to find things. But when she’s tasked with finding a person at the royal fae ball, everything changes.

For years, Meera has been haunted by dreams of a mysterious fae man she’s never met. At the same time, King Vareck has been dreaming of a girl he’s never seen—but he’s certain he must find her. When they meet at the ball, the connection is instant. They recognize each other from their dreams… and then chaos erupts. Handcuffs snap into place, someone is kidnapped, and Meera ends up running for her life.

From there, the story picks up pace, full of action, tension, and emotional stakes. Vareck is furious, Meera is defiant, and their chemistry is impossible to ignore—especially when he locks her in his bedroom (and yes, there’s only one bed). 🔥 Their steamy dream connection, the mate bond twist, and the slow-burn tension made every moment between them feel electric. I loved the way their romance unfolded amid danger —it added depth and urgency to their bond.

The world is rich with fae, witches, leprechauns, and magic, blending danger, destiny, and desire in a way that completely pulled me in. I couldn’t stop imagining the enchanting setting and the fate-driven pull between these two characters.

If you love fantasy romance with high stakes, magical tension, and a fated love that refuses to be denied—this one is for you.

[Louise]

I struggled with the purple prose but thought I would keep going as I loved the concept. Then this girl fell out the window and was being worked on by a healer, and the description was: ‘he cut away the luscious fabric from her form’. And I don’t know why but that sentence was just so vile I couldn’t continue. Also not a fan of the cat.
But this series does have great potential so if you like the writing style I think you’ll love it.

[Arleigh Salerno · Rating 5 out of 5]

Ok ok ok! This was a hard one to put down, and I'm fully invested already. I already can't wait for the next book because boy, does this one leave you on a cliffhanger! Very little down time, because something is always happening, but this book was written in such a way that it was bringing you along for the ride. Joyful or frustrating... even for the spice. A job gone wrong? Or maybe it's just right... but wait...
Haha, see what I did there? You just have to pick this one up and read it! Again, I know I'm fully invested and am so grateful to have been brought to this world.

Beneath The Cursed Veil By AURELIA JANE and KEL CARPENTER
I rated this 4⭐️ and 2.5🌶️
This was a really easy book to get into. Starts off right away with pulling you in. It was a fast paced, fated mates romantasy. There was a badass FMC and a Protective MMC, little suspense and a whole lot of tension. I really did enjoy the story line and the characters. I did feel like it was missing that umph.

While the story made me giggle here and there , and the Cat was a fantastic bonus, the story was just ok for me. It has a lot of the same elements as most fantasy/fae books do with unknown dates mates and half humans . Overall good story

⭐️⭐️⭐️.5 (rounded up to 4)

Audiobook Review • Fantasy Romance

This was a fun, fast-paced fantasy romance with an intriguing premise—a female bounty hunter, magical creatures galore (think leprechauns, furies, fae, orcs, and more), and a fated mates angle with a twist. I loved the potential of this world, and it definitely had a "D&D meets anime" vibe that made it entertaining to picture while listening.

Our MMC has spent years searching for the mysterious woman from his dreams, and when he finally finds her, things move fast. The magic system—especially the idea of magic being able to compel others—was a cool touch, and the connection between the leads was compelling enough to keep me listening. The cat familiar absolutely stole the show for me. Funny, snarky, and super memorable—easily the standout character.

That said, I was left wanting more in terms of world-building and plot depth. The story felt like a novella or prequel—something meant to set the stage for a larger series. There were missed opportunities for character development and political intrigue, especially with the MMC being a king. We barely see him in his role, there's no real court dynamic or governing tension, and some plot points (like a kidnapped royal nephew!) were brushed over quickly.

Spice: 🌶️ 0.5 (just one scene, mild)

The audiobook had some issues. The male narrator was great—engaging, clear, and consistent—but the female narrator’s audio quality was poor and her voice volume was so low I had to constantly adjust my settings. It honestly sounded like it was recorded on a phone. It made for a frustrating listening experience at times.

Overall, this had potential and a fun premise, but lacked the depth I personally look for in fantasy romance. Still, I’m curious to see where the series goes, especially with the solid groundwork laid here and that beautiful special edition cover (yes, I ordered it!).

Thank you to The Nerd Fam for the gifted eARC. 💜

This book followed meera who isn’t sure where she comes from as she is adopted. She accepts a job that puts her in sight of the fae king. This books is full of mystery and intrigue and a little romance as well with spice scenes.

[Maria Elena | pagesofmaria · Rating 4 out of 5]

Corvo the cat (or is he?) is lurking somewhere, waiting for the right moment to sass you into reading this book for the simple pleasure of meeting him. Because he is the most important character in the book, clearly, and we should all feel honored to be in his presence.

Beneath the Cursed Veil is the first book in the Faeted Seasons: Winter duet with a very interesting fated mates story. The second book, Beyond the Winter Kingdom, is releasing on August 12 and I am so glad it’s close because I am very much looking forward to seeing what happens next.

The story follows Meera, a half high fae who lives in our world with her adoptive family of redcaps and owns an antiquity shop. Meera has the unique ability to find anything, which she uses to find objects people would pay good money to possess. Then Lou, a shady leprechaun, offers her the job that could settle her affairs, but it’s only after she accepts the contract than she learns her objective: steal the prince of Faerie and get away unseen. But things go wrong once she sneaks into the Faerie court, for she attracts the attention of the prince’s uncle, King Vareck. Vareck, who appears to be the mysterious man who has been haunting her dreams for years. Vareck, who has been searching for the woman of his dreams across the realms, and now that he’s found her, he will not let her go.

This book has all the elements I love in a Romantasy: a cast of interesting characters, complete with a wonderful family dynamic for the protagonist, a compelling story, a nice romance arc and, cherry on top, it was also FUN. There were moments that had me cackling, and most of them were thanks to Corvo, Vareck’s familiar. This cat/god has sass on speed-dial and I love him for it. As for the romance, I enjoyed it and loved how Vareck and Meera toed between mistrust, curiosity and the lingering lust that comes from their dreams. The combination of all of these elements, plus the authors’ great writing style, made this book a fast, unputdownable read.

Here are some tropes!
🔮 fated mates
💭 shared dreams
🐈‍⬛ sassy cat familiar who is actually a god
🔥 possessive MMC
👑 fae royalty
💀 touch her and…

Ohhhh gosh what can I say about Beneath the Cursed Veil? First off, I was privy to an advance copy, courtesy of the Nerd Family, so thank you so much for letting me read this book. Now on to the good stuff.

Beneath the Cursed Veil captured my interest in the first chapter. I did not expect the book to be as funny and literally laugh out loud in some parts.I absolutely loved Meera and Sadie’s dynamic as sisters, very Tory and Darcy vibes from Zodiac Academy.

Meera is not your typical fae as we all read from a lot of other fae fantasy books, She’s a vivacious, curvy firecracker that only wants to keep her business alive, so she takes odd jobs from a leprechaun. One job just happens to land her meeting the king of Faerie.

Let’s jump to the MMC Vareck. My high fae king. And oh what a king he is. Vareck is king to a cursed kingdom that is and is completely caught up in search of the girl of his dreams…literally. I found loving Vareck and his sass wonderfully charming along with his familiar cat named Corvo.

Corvo hands down stole the show for me. I could read entire chapters on him alone. Everytime his little tails and paws showed up I smiled.

The trio of Vareck, Meera, and Corvo won my heart instantly and I cannot wait for book 2.

I love how not all fantasy books have to be super deep to enjoy full heartedly.

Beneath the Cursed Veil is such an easy romantasy read that leaves you wanting more.

3.75⭐️
0.1🌶️

This had me laughing all the way through and I can fully agree that this was defo a sarcastic fantasy romance read. It was good pace, easy to follow instead of it being serious. The humour in this is defo 5/5 without a doubt.

Credits to Corvo the cat, he was my favourite character throughout the book.

There wasn’t much world building, and I’m normally not a fan on heavy world building, but in this case I would of like a little bit more info on who was who (brownies, redcap, high fae) regarding the different types of fae’s and the magics.

I loved the story between Meera and Vareck, it’s was easy to see that they both fell for each straight away, even tho they both dreamt about each other but their faces weren’t visible in their dreams. I’m hoping the romance continues in book 2.

This book left on cliffhanger, in my opinion I feel like the extra bit at the end wasn’t needed, but I am excited to see what happens. As per when I read books I always have questions 😂😂. What’s the deal with the Prince being kidnap and not The King, is there some hidden secret on who and what Meera is, what happen with the blood oath, what game is the witch playing.

Couple of things I noticed which made me like the story more, was that Meera is curvy, and The King’s next commander is POC.

I would defo recommend this, it’s easy pace, will have you laughing, but do note it ends on a cliffhanger and you will have questions that would make you wanna dive into the next book to see if those questions get answered.

[GheridenTheBookBard · Rating 5 out of 5]

This book was so much fun. Beneath the Cursed Veil by Kel Carpenter and Aurelia Jane completely sucked me in. It had that perfect mix of fast pacing, great banter, and characters you want to follow around forever. I swear, I blinked and was already a third of the way through.

Meera is a finder-for-hire just trying to keep her antique shop open. She’s smart, capable, sarcastic in all the right ways, and honestly, super easy to root for. Her latest job? Track down a person... totally different from her usual gigs, but nothing she can’t handle. Until she runs into Vareck.

Vareck is the king of a cursed kingdom, and he’s been searching for the woman from his dreams. He’s never met her, doesn’t even know her name… until he sees Meera mid-hunt. Sparks fly. Complications ensue. The banter? Top tier. Their chemistry? Immediate and addictive.

Even the side characters had me invested. Each one felt like they had their own story going on, and I’d 100% read those too. Also, Corvo, the talking cat with a serious attitude, stole every single scene he was in. I need more of him.

The world-building is easy to fall into, the magic system is simple but clever, and the dialogue had me grinning constantly. It’s the kind of book that makes reading feel effortless.

Honestly, I didn’t expect to love this one as much as I did, but now I’m counting down to the next book and checking the authors’ backlists. Total win.

Huge thanks to The Nerdfam for connecting me with this ARC!

I have a new obsession and it’s Beneath the Cursed Veil!!💜
I didn’t expect to enjoy this book as much as I did but I was immediately hooked from page one and before I knew it, I was finished.😱
The ending was 😱 and I neeeeeed book two now please.

The plot was so good and so different from any fantasy I’ve read before. I love the concept of Varreck and Meera having dreams about each other and found it funny that he knew she existed and was looking for her, while Meera thought he was just someone she dreamt about often and didn’t suspect he was real.😂

I absolutely love Meera and her family. They are all so badass and I just love their dynamic.💜
Meera grows a lot in this book and I am so here for it. I can’t wait to see what she accomplishes in the next book and there are a few things I think we’ll find out about her and what she really is.👀🤭

Vareck! Get me a man like this please!😮‍💨🔥🔥
From his first pov chapter I was in love and I kept falling for him as the book continued.🥹 I love how obsessed, protective, caring, and loving he is towards Meera, and how he showed her she could trust him and not run away when things get difficult.💜

Thank you so much for this early arc copy, The Nerd Fam and the authors. I can’t wait for book 2!🥳💜
