The Blood King's Bride

The Blood King has paid Mirielle's bride price and plans to take her deep into the North, where other kings cannot reach her.

She is the last descendant of a powerful, valuable sorcerous bloodline, and she has concealed that gift for more than a decade at a terrible cost.

Gruesome legends follow him, yet the quiet care he shows her perplexes the woman who spent her life trapped in a castle.

His gentleness wears down the walls she built around herself, and the hope it awakens frightens her more than fear.

In the wider world at last, and with the right people beside her, she will learn to trust again.
