He rose from his own pyre with fire in his lungs—and the assassin who killed him bound to his side. Their marriage is a weapon. Their desire is a war.

When flame-born prince Lucien Rathmore claws back from death, his kingdom is already carving up his throne. Nyra Silvarin—the blade that put him in the ground—stands in chains, unrepentant. Instead of an execution, Lucien forges a blood vow: a strategic wedding to leash the rebel who haunts him. Enemies at the altar, they ride into a realm of treachery—witches who trade memories for truth, revenants boiling from the fen, and a shadow-sorcerer raising a new order from Lucien's ashes. Each battle drags them closer: dagger to throat, mouth to mouth, power against power. She wants freedom. He wants a kingdom. Both would burn the world to win.

As courts fracture and armies gather, the only path through is the one they take together—hungry, ruthless, undeniable. But the secret buried in the Vale of Arak will demand a price even monsters fear: when your heart is a weapon, whom do you swear to?

CRIMSON VOW RISING ignites Vows of Ruin—a dark, high-heat fantasy romance of enemies-to-lovers, blood-bound vows, brutal magic, and harem-tinged temptations for readers who like their kisses to taste like war.
