Character from the book series A court of Thorns and Roses. Starts out as the love interest in the first book. Tamlin (pronounced: Tam-lin) is a High Fae and High Lord of the Spring Court. The initial romance that unfolds is between the Fae High King of the Spring Court, Tamlin, and Feyre, the human huntress he takes as payment for a broken ancient pact. It's a modified version of Beauty and the Beast, but the story gets darker. While Tamlin is initially kind and generous to Feyre, and they share a deep love, that changes after they both experience horrors that leave them with PTSD. His tendency toward control and possessiveness turn into something abusive as he becomes unhealthily obsessed with keeping her safe. Feyre becomes a prisoner in her own home, wasting away to the point that she comes close to breaking permanently.
