This beautiful DELUXE EDITION hardcover featuring gorgeous stenciled edges, designed endpapers, and a stamped foil case is only available for a limited first print run and while supplies last. This is a stunning special edition you will want to add to your collection.

New York Times bestselling author Julie Soto crafts a lush and dark romantic fantasy that's filled with intrigue, magic, and an irresistible enemies-to-lovers romance.

The war is over, the dark forces have won, and the hero who was supposed to save them is dead.

Captured as her castle is overrun by the enemy, the world as Briony Rosewood knows it is changed forever. Evil has won, and her people face imminent servitude, imprisonment, or death.

Stripped of her Magic and her freedom, Briony and the other survivors are quickly sold off to the highest bidders in an auction--and as Evermore's princess, she fetches the highest price. After a fierce bidding war, she's sold to none other than Toven Hearst, scion of a family known for their cruelty.

Yet despite the horrors of her new world and the role she must learn to play within it, all is not lost. Help--and hope--may yet arise in the most unlikely of places...

Tried a few times but just couldn’t not get into it. The plot was hard to follow and the jumping timelines didn’t help. I know a lot of folks love it, so it may just be a matter of preference but I will respectfully say this was just not for me.

3.5 ⭐️ I did enjoy this book but it wasn’t an amazing read for me. Disklikes: I felt like the magic system didn’t make much sense to me and it was hard to keep up with the characters as there were a lot of them. While a I love an enemies to lovers, and forbidden romance, I don’t love it when the fmc is oblivious for the entirety of the book. Briony is meant to be smart and the girl STRUGGLED to put the pieces together, even though they were right in her face. There’s only so much self deprecation I can handle. Likes: Once I looked past the magic system I thought the world building was good. I also really enjoyed the mmc, but wish we got more from him. The tension started to build towards the end, we love a good slow burn! The book started to pick up towards the end and definitely left wanting for more. Over all it was a good book! I understand this this one is the world building, introductory book so I look forward to the next one!
