Fate doesn't favour the wicked in the highly anticipated first installment in this brand new spin off series to the Booktok phenomenon, the Zodiac Academy series, from the Twisted Sisters and Amazon and Wall Street Journal #1 bestselling authors Caroline Peckham and Susanne Valenti.
The dragons are lost.
The elements are at war. Enlisting isn't optional.
And I'm falling for a man who wants me dead.
I'm a wielder of hearts and summoner of corruption. Heir to nothing and born to a fool in the wrong damn month.
But I'm also one of only two Fae in this divided land of hellions who might be starting to see through the lies we've swallowed for so long.
In the year we turn twenty-one, conscripts from across the warring nations of air, fire, earth and water are sent to Never Keep - the only place in our besieged continent where our magic can be Awakened.
But something is wrong inside Never Keep. Something which might extend far beyond the reaches of this desolate fortress. Within the gothic walls of this frigid castle in the snow, we're left to hold our own against the brutal Fae from the opposing lands.
The Reapers are merciless. The Royals are lying. The Werewolves run rampant and Vampires roam the wastelands in bloodthirsty covens. But even though death lurks in every shadow of the Keep, it's the least of my worries.
I'm delving into secrets the stars don't want me uncovering, making alliances with Fae born to be my enemy, falling for a sinner while promising my heart to a different heathen and somewhere amid it all, I'm supposed to win a war.
I thought the only thing I had to do was survive my magical instruction.
Turns out, fate doesn't favour the wicked.
***This is an enemies to lovers romantasy series set in the same world as Zodiac Academy, but it's a dark and villainous tale of its own. You haven't met tainted souls like these before or enemies that hate each other as deeply as these characters do. Book 1 in the series will leave your heart raw and bloody. You'll be left gasping for breath and aching for more of the twisted Fae who lurk between the pages and they might just be irredeemable...***

Overall I enjoyed this book. There were sometimes I felt like it was a bit slow but over all I really enjoyed it and will be moving to the second one.The ending broke me and I need answers!!!This books has two main female characters and I liked them both!
This book is a must-read for fans of the Zodiac Academy books. The authors have done a bang-up job creating this altered version of what the Zodiac world would look like if all the elemental powers of earth, air, fire, and water were contanting warring against each other. Not to mention the descriptions of fearsome characters and new lands that truly bring this story to life. I'm looking forward to the next book in the series.
Another amazing start to a series by the Twisted Sisters! So many questions going thru my head! Honestly my heart is breaking for both our FMCs. I can’t wait to start book 2!!!
I was hooked on Never Keep from page one! The mix of elemental magic, danger, and icy fortress vibes made the world so easy to get lost in. Everest and Vesper are both amazing characters—fierce, determined, and so easy to root for.The plot is full of twists, the drama kept me glued to the pages, and that cliffhanger at the end… WOW. I’m already counting down until the next book comes out. If you love dark fantasy with action, betrayal, and a little spice, this is a must-read!!
Another book tik tok and facebook recommended. It wasn’t that great. Wasn’t a book that I couldn’t put down it was just okay. I like the story and character development but wish there was alittle more. At first I didn’t care for vesper but after reading more into her story you grow to like her. I do wish there was more for the other FMC.
