The Summer King

by Jennifer L Armentrout

2026

This omnibus collects The Prince, The King, and The Queen, telling the full story of Brighton Jussier and Summer King Caden. From grief‑fueled hunting to perilous alliance and hard‑won love, it offers one sweeping fae romance set in the world of the Wicked trilogy.

Series background & context

The Wicked trilogy is an urban‑fantasy romance set in present‑day New Orleans, where tourists see jazz bars and beignets while members of a secret Order track the fae that slip through rips between worlds. It blends the city’s atmospheric streets with deadly, seductive magic.

Ivy Morgan is a twenty‑two‑year‑old college student by day and fae hunter by night. Orphaned by the creatures she now stalks, she’s devoted her life to the Order’s mission: locate the fae, drive a steel stake through their hearts, and send them back to the Otherworld before they can feed on human life. Her carefully controlled world breaks open when a new wave of powerful, barely killable fae begins appearing in the French Quarter.

In Wicked, Ivy is assigned to work with Ren Owens, an Elite member of the Order who’s been sent from another region to help. Ren is charming, tattooed, and dangerous in ways that have nothing to do with the blades he carries. Their partnership starts rocky—she doesn’t trust easily, and he hides more than he admits—but soon they’re chasing leads on an ancient fae Prince whose return could tear down the barrier between realms.

Torn and Brave follow the fallout as Ivy uncovers secrets about her own bloodline, the true nature of the fae threat, and the Order’s willingness to sacrifice individuals for the “greater good.” Her relationships—with Ren, with her best friend Val, and with Tink, the brownie roommate who hoards junk food and pop culture—are tested by betrayal, grief, and impossible choices.

The trilogy’s tone swings from snarky roommate banter to brutal confrontations and back again. Romance is central but never separate from the danger; Ivy and Ren’s intimacy is constantly complicated by loyalty oaths, supernatural politics, and the knowledge that one wrong move could doom a lot more than their relationship.

Beyond the main books, the Summer King novellas—The Prince, The King, and The Queen, later collected in The Summer King—shift focus to Caden, a cold fae prince, and Brighton Jussier, a human raised in the Order. Their story runs parallel to and eventually intertwines with Ivy’s, expanding the world and giving fans more time in its mix of glamour, horror, and hard‑won hope.
