A Romantic Fantasy filled with forbidden love, plot twists, betrayal, banter, and a steamy love triangle. Violet has lived her entire life in the Mountain Realm and has been in a secret relationship with Calum, the Sovereign of her realm, which is completely forbidden. The rule is Every Sovereign must marry from the royal bloodlines of the Seven Sovereigns. When Calum is sent to the Night Realm to begin his engagement to the sister of the Night Realm’s Sovereign, he promises Violet he will find a way out of the engagement and make his way back to her. Violet holds onto that promise until she finds herself in the Night Realm where she realizes everything isn’t as true as she thought it was. To make matters worse, the Sovereign of the Night Realm—the most evil and vicious of them all—has taken a strange liking to Violet and is quite curious about her rare heart condition which is something unheard of amongst fae. Now Violet must navigate her way through the next several months as she fights an internal battle between her heart and her head.

This is the second book in the War of Her Heart Series, but could be read before book one. I recommend reading War of Her Heart first. In the kingdom of Joveryn, where witches are hunted and magic is forbidden, Bronwen and her twin brother, Adar, have spent their lives hiding their gift: the ability to siphon magic from others and wield it any way they see fit. With the feeling of magic coursing through her veins too intoxicating to ignore, Bronwen has found a way to fill that void. Hunting vampires and stealing their magic. But the night she encounters a vampire who doesn’t beg, who doesn’t fight—who simply smiles as she drains him—everything changes. He survives. And worse, he marks her. Now, bound by an invisible tether to a vampire who refuses to die, Bronwen is plagued by visions of his past victims, forced to live through their final moments. As their fates become entwined, she realizes that he is more than just a monster—he’s something else entirely. With the lines between right and wrong growing ever thinner, Bronwen must decide if she will destroy the creature who haunts her . . . or forge an alliance that could change everything
