The 18 Best Fantasy Romance Books

Paedyn is an Ordinary, eking out a living in the slums opposite Elites, powerful beings that were gifted their abilities after surviving the Plague. Padeyn masks herself as an Elite to survive, which works until she's thrown into the Purging Trials, designed, as the name suggests, to ferret out Ordinaries and rid the city of them. If the Trials and the opponents within them don't kill her, the prince she's fighting feelings for certainly will if he discovers what she is: completely Ordinary.

"Powerless" ($14, originally $20) is book one of two, with an additional novella told from the perspective of a fan favorite character.
