Description
In a kingdom where magic is forbidden, Sashki lived an ordinary life-until the day she begins having visions of a destiny she never imagined was her own. The visions reveal a shocking truth: she possesses a rare, powerful magic, and her twin brother, whom she never knew existed, wields a dark and dangerous magic of his own. As the kingdom of Carserae teeters on the brink of destruction, Sashki is faced with an agonizing choice-use her magic to save the kingdom, even if it means destroying her brother.
But magic comes with its own dangers. To protect herself and her newfound powers, Sashki must keep everything secret, including her growing feelings for the prince of Carserae. Though magic is banned in Carserae, Sashki persuades the prince to assist her in fulfilling her destiny, all while keeping her abilities a closely guarded secret. As they embark on a journey to confront the kingdom's fate, Sashki finds herself torn between her heart and her responsibility.
In a world where love and duty collide, Sashki must confront the truth of her identity, her powerful connection to the prince, and the heartbreaking sacrifice required to save her people. Will she destroy the brother she never knew, or can she find a way to save both him and the kingdom without losing herself in the process?

Steamy romance dropped into a medieval world with balls, magic, and princes. I was sitting on my seat edge with every page turn, a bit like when I read Sarah J. Maas

Sword of Hadrian pulled me in from the start with its vivid world and high stakes. Sashki is the kind of heroine you root for: powerful yet vulnerable, torn between loyalty and love, all while hiding a dangerous secret that could change everything. The slow-burn romance with the prince added just the right amount of tension, but what really hooked me was the emotional weight of her choices—nothing felt easy, and that made it all the more real. I finished this one in two days because I had to know how it would all play out.

Magic? Forbidden. Romance? Forbidden. Me, reading this past midnight? NOT forbidden. 💅
This book is dramaaaa with a capital D. Sashki’s got secret powers, a mysterious twin, a swoony prince, AND a kingdom to save? Girl’s plate is full. I was flipping pages like my life depended on it—plot twists, magic sparks, secret makeout vibes, moral dilemmas… it’s got it all. If you're into fierce girls with big feelings and even bigger destinies, Sword of Hadrian is your next obsession. ⚡💔👑
