Description
A romantasy novel of trials, vampires, and slow-burning desire follows Arvelle, whose life in the dangerous Thorn district is a constant struggle to protect her younger brothers. When faced with an impossible choice, she makes a magically binding vow to kill the emperor, an ancient vampire created by the god Umbros. First, she must enter the Sundering, an arena where only the fastest, strongest, and deadliest survive long enough to be chosen for the emperor’s elite guard. As the stakes rise and secrets emerge, Arvelle incurs the wrath of the Primus, the powerful protector of the emperor, while becoming increasingly dependent on the emperor’s vampiric son to develop her abilities. To survive the arena and complete her mission, she must uncover a deadly conspiracy that will change everything she believes about herself and the two vampires entwined with her destiny. The story features enemies-to-lovers tension, forbidden love, forced proximity, magic, a tournament, a love triangle, and a slow-burn romance.
