Something Wicked
books by Falon Ballard

The country of Avon is in deep turmoil. The Uprising has overthrown Avon’s monarchial rulers, and a decree has been issued. Candidates for the first presidential election will be selected by the completion of a special task: to kill the former monarch of their home province. Callum, the son of the recently dethroned king, is determined to be in the running. But to do so, he must come to terms with killing his father, the key to which lies in the hands of Lady Caterine, a Gifted courtesan at La Puissance, Avon’s premiere sex club. Lady Caterine has always had the magical ability to manipulate the emotions of anyone... The story leaves a lasting impression by focusing on meaningful moments rather than constant spectacle.
