To keep my family safe and prevent a devastating Clan war, I would do anything—even marry the powerful prince I’ve hidden from all my life.

When the vicious Blood Brotherhood prince I’ve been hidden from all my life finally comes to claim me at my wedding and kills my heinous groom, he gives me one choice—stay here and take my chances with the unknown force raining poisoned arrows on my ceremony or leave with him as his bride.

He’s the man I was raised to fear.

He’s the most ruthless warrior in all of Malhaven.

Few dare to even speak his name.

But with my family’s safety on the line, I choose the unthinkable and agree to become his queen.

As I try to adjust to my new home, the treacherous ways of Clan life, and learn the magic I was forbidden from practicing, I discover that the enemy I once feared might be the only one I can trust–and the sole person I can’t resist.

But the secret he’s keeping might finally accomplish what the assassins failed to do–destroy everyone I love and shatter our world forever.

A Crown of Tears and Treason is book one in the first duology of the A Curse of Silver Secrets and Cruel Shadows series. It’s a slow burn, enemies-to-lovers romantasy where banter is a love language and secrets can kill. The series starts out hot and only gets hotter as the mystery grows.

In the War of the Clans, which side will you choose? Protectorate VS Blood Brotherhood.

It is a quick hook. The world building pulled together with the plot and before chapter 4 I was hooked, wanting to know what happens. Excellent reading, great character development, and a plot twist at the end. Thank goodness the second book is already published!!
