Happy Pub Day: Infernal Secrets, Elyrdin Fate 1 by Stephanie Denne 🐦⬛
Infernal Secrets by Stephanie Denne is a why choose paranormal romance with dangerous attraction, morally gray temptation, and medium-burn tension that escalates into heat no one is prepared for.
She learned early not to talk about monsters. No one believed her anyway. Then four of them showed her how real they are.
Synopsis
I thought nightmares ended when you woke up.
Turns out, mine were just waiting for me to open my eyes.
Thirteen years ago, I saw something the night my parents died no one would believe. Grandma said the monsters were real, but everyone called her crazy like Mom. And after a lifetime of seeing things I’d never admit to, I feared I was losing my mind too… until four men appeared in my house after I opened a book I never should’ve touched.
They’re beautiful. Dangerous. And definitely not human.
Ash, Cyn, Zeke, and Ezra—demon princes trapped on Earth by my mistake.
Helping them find a way home means facing both the darkness that destroyed my family and the mysterious pull between us.
Each of them tempts me in different ways:
Ash, the wounded protector who makes me feel seen.
Zeke, the broken soul who awakens my own need to protect.
Ezra, the ice prince who watches me like I’m both threat and prey.
And Cyn, the magnetic asshole that I shouldn’t want, but I do.
The closer we get to the truth about my bloodline, the clearer it becomes that our connection runs deeper than desire.
Some fates aren’t chosen. Some fates are written in blood.

Content / Trigger warnings:
*Stephanie has a wonderfully inclusive list on her website, but here’s a snapshot at what’s included in Infernal Secrets.
This story involves demons and supernatural elements. Readers can expect material that some may find creepy, scary, or disturbing, including descriptions of demonic creatures and beasts, blood, gore, decay, mutilated body parts, the occult, and witchcraft. If these themes are not for you, please proceed with caution.
Morally Gray Dynamics:
This is not an insta-love story, nor do all romantic dynamics begin smoothly in this polyamorous romance. Some relationships develop over multiple books, while others connect with the FMC faster. One romantic dynamic enters enemies-to-lovers territory and explores a morally gray power imbalance. This includes aggressive interactions and volatile tension that later evolves into a mutually understood and consensual dynamic.
All sexual interactions between characters are consensual.
