Description

An assassin falls for the archduke she was sent to kill, but killing him might be the only way to save his soul.

Magic has two immutable rules - every spell requires a sacrifice, and every curse can be broken.

Amira Brindonu is a sorceress turned assassin, bound in a curse that forces her to obey her father, even to the point of high treason. When he orders her to kill the future emperor, she fails, but discovers a secret that could bring the whole of the empire to its knees.

The archduke is stricken by a curse that could sentence him and his people to damnation, but Amira could be the only key to breaking it. In a desperate last-ditch effort, the archduke takes Amira prisoner and makes a pact to protect her from her curse if she will help free him of his own.

As time begins to run out, Amira soon learns that there are enemies that blades can’t touch, and there are fates worse than death. Caught in a web of sorcery, intrigue, and her growing feelings for the archduke, the assassin must decide just how much she is willing to give to save the only man she’s ever loved.

Every curse can be broken, but can two cursed people save each other?

Beauty and the Beast meets The Witcher in this fantasy romance that is sure to delight fans of Sarah J. Maas, Kristin Cashore, and Leigh Bardugo.

Hooked like a fish

Story is excellent, cant wait to continue with next book.
Narration was good and i always appreciate when an author reads their own books, but some word choices and pronounciations were odd (sur-ep-titty-us-lee rather than sur-ep-tish-us-lee for example) and it tended to drift monotone.
Overall though, excellent book and cant wait to pick up Outlaw.

Good book!

I’ll continue the series; I’m half way through the first book and have enjoyed it. I have loved reading about this strong female who is respected. Hard to find in fantasy books!

The book felt incredibly short!!!

The story is very captivating and the personalities of the characters were relatable. I found Elizabeth Wheatley on YouTube shorts and thought she was hilarious. It is not smutty so if that’s your thing this isn’t it. (But also not a kids book as it talks about love making) I had to start book two immediately. It’s like beauty and the beast without the Stockholm syndrome and the beast isn’t abusive at all. Great world building too! I also like how it has magic but it isn’t always the solution to the problems.

Gritty fantasy with a side of romance

I expected the romance to be more prominent than it was. I was annoyed with every use of the word "clipped", but the author does a decent job with the reading, and the story line was still compelling enough for me to get all 5 books. I probably won't start another series by the same author though.
