Crowns at Her Feet

In Crowns at Her Feet, Serena wakes in a body that belonged to a duke's daughter who tormented six mythical servants to please her sister Emma. The original owner forced the vampire Edward to tear off his own wings as a gift for Emma's servant, locked Seymour, a merman obsessed with cleanliness, in a sewer, kept the dragon Constantine constantly frustrated for amusement, and banished the god king Odin by oath. Now those same servants—a Dragon King, Vampire, Merman, Elf, Wolf King, and a King of Gods—want her dead.

Forgiveness doesn't come fast here. Serena has to earn trust with real sacrifices: letting Edward drink her blood to regrow his wings, offering her own blood to cleanse Seymour's water, burning years of her life through the oath of life. And while she pieces them back together, she also carries a secret that rewrites everything—she is Frigga, the goddess of love, reborn. Her dead son Arthur exists as a spirit only she and, strangely, Odin can see, pulling her toward a resurrection she doesn't yet understand and a possible father she never expected.

Emma's manipulation runs through every layer, from their mother's favoritism to a duel designed to strip Serena's inheritance. But the heart of the story is less about ruling and more about rebuilding a shattered household into something that might finally resemble a family.
