Description

An addictive world beckons. Escape into this epic romantasy adventure of tangled secrets and dark magic for fans of Sarah J Maas, Callie Hart, Rebecca Yarros and Jennifer L Armentrout.

A daring spy. A rebel princess. A kingdom on the brink of war.

When a mysterious human, Sir Rowan arrives in the immortal realm of Thalassaria seeking the legendary Tidal Pearl, Thalassarian guard Nerys is assigned as his escort and to keep close whilst he’s in the palace. But her duty wars with her desires as the more time she spends with Rowan, the harder it becomes for them to ignore their growing attraction. Powerful, enigmatic, and devastatingly mortal, Rowan stirs something deep within her that could change the course of her future.

Trapped within the palace while the queen decides the humans' fate, Nerys realizes her allegiances are shifting. With the tidal pearl at risk, there is only one way to protect it… by challenging the Queen’s crown. But as the moment approaches, Nerys and Rowan are forced to confront a choice between loyalty to their realms or a love that defies the laws of mortality.

In a kingdom where magic flows like the tides, one secret could drown them both.

Thank you so much Boldwood books for the arc to this stunning book!
I love a good romance in fantasy books and boy did this deliver! The banter was so good and the tension was wonderful. This is book 2 in the Heirs of Elydor series BUT they are interconnected so you dont have to read the first book to be able to understand the second. Nerys is definitely a top FMC for me now! and Rowan was a fun character and i liked his story. The dual POV really helped bring me closer to the characters and i liked learning more about them. The side characters were so much fun and im happy with what they brought to the story.

Thank you again to NetGalley and Boldwood Books for the e-ARC of this gorgeous book!

Amazing second instalment in the series - although they're not directly related so it's fine to read this as a standalone.

It has the perfect blend of forbidden love and there's so much to keep the momentum going throughout this book - absolutely loved it!

This was fantastic! Forbidden love, secrets and schemes, and so much unfolding right before us. I loved this, and I cannot wait for more!

Even though this was a forbidden romance, it was the setting that stole my heart! The way the author described this sandy beach kingdom was truly out of this world where the power of the sea was the heart of these people. Outstanding!

The romance was outstanding too! Loved Kael from the onset where his world was turned upside down upon meeting Nerys....in more ways than one. There's a struggle between duty and love these two will have to endure on their path to happiness.

Great story! Loved it and I'm anxiously awaiting the next book in this series. I was gifted with an ARC from Netgalley and wanted to share my thoughts.
