Overview

Forced by the gods to be wed. Forced by their secrets to be enemies. A desperate queen and a lowly fisherman must join together to save her land in this spellbinding romantasy from Sarah K. L. Wilson. ""Perfect for readers who love slow-burn romance steeped in lush fantasy!"" ―Danielle L. Jensen, #1 New York Times bestselling author of A Fate Inked in Blood Queen Coralys, ruler of the Crocus Isles, kneels to no one. But when her kingdom is besieged by a terrible hurricane, killing her husband and destroying half her nation, she is forced to make a deal with the gods for salvation. But the gods have a wicked sense of justice, and they demand payment for their help. Coralys must give up her titles and marry the first man to set foot on her pier: a poor, wounded fisherman with broad shoulders and dark power in his eyes. Coralys keeps her promise and sets out with him in his dinghy, with only the hope of revenge against the gods to keep her from despair. But her new husband hides his own secrets: a link to the gods that may make him her enemy or her ally, and a mysterious list of impossible feats waiting to be crossed off. However, learning to trust each other will be their greatest challenge, because only together can they stop the enemies gathering at her kingdom's shores. ""Intricately wrought and deeply imaginative ... the kind of delicious slow-burn fantasy that made me love reading."" ―Hannah Whitten, author of The Foxglove King

Author Information

Sarah K . L. Wilson loves writing because it is the only way to make a living and give back to the world when your primary skill is an overactive imagination and a tendency toward anxiety-fueled daydreams. She can be found in the outdoors of Northern Ontario with her young boys and beloved husband, reading a book, or fending off her husband's pet turkeys with a straw broom.
