Snarky, violent and awaiting execution, Sasha Velwin spends her last night in the iron chains of the royal dungeon. Her crimes? Heresy, desertion and practicing blood magic. Wilful, dashing and about to be sold into marriage, Princess Alysha will do anything to escape his destiny to marry the mysterious and dark Prince Valek. Could switching places be the answer to both their prayers? - In the magical kingdom of Pyrthia, the children of prophecy are dead and gone, blood mages are enslaved to a losing army and a bloodthirsty race of monsters has begun to wash up upon the shores each night. Sasha thinks her new role of the royal bride may just be enough to escape from a bloody and violent past, but the Royal Court is not without it's own secrets of seduction and murder. She'll need every inch of fight within her to survive, especially if she hopes to unravel the prophecy and save the world. Not to mention, there's something very wrong with her groom... cover by @newsies-
