What to expect
AN IMPOSSIBLE POWER. A FATHOMLESS HATRED. A BOND THAT COULD UNRAVEL WORLDS.
Aelie can break runes with her bare hands, shattering the magic at the heart of fae society. They hate her for it, fear her for it, and, when they finally capture her, sentence her to die for it.
Desperate to survive, Aelie severs the rune enslaving her executioner – Kairos, a devastatingly handsome fae with a blood-soaked past.
The moment he's freed, Kairos slaughters the entire court. Then he drags Aelie to his kingdom, a realm of towering forests and shimmering mists.
Bound to the ruthless king she freed, Aelie is thrown into the deadly politics of the fae courts. To survive, she must master her forbidden power and resist the fae who sees her as his greatest weapon … and darkest obsession.
Featuring:
- A feral, morally grey hero
- A 25-year-old heroine with a dangerous gift
- Mating bond tension
- Breathtakingly immersive worldbuilding
- He-falls-first
- Forced proximity
- Enemies-to-lovers
It’s no wonder Runebreaker is already leaving readers begging for more…
'I couldn’t put this down! Lots of twists and the ending – sheesh! Annoyed I didn’t wait until book 2 was out to continue! One of the only books I would reread in a heartbeat.'
‘Wow … just wow! This book ends on a cliffhanger … be warned! Now I am hooked on a growly MMC that absolutely adores his FMC and my book hangover is going to take weeks to disperse!!'
'This book is so freaking good! It had everything – peril, plot, betrayal, romance, wonderful world building, and an ending that gave me straight up emotional damage … believe when I say this book had me HOOKED.'
'Absolutely amazing book. Written really well, didn't wanna put it down. Love the main characters dominant male lead without the female being the weak damsel in distress. Just gutted that book 2 isn't out yet, I will be back …'
'Wow – I absolutely loved every single page and chapter of this book. This is storytelling at another level – phenomenal.'
