The second instalment in Elizabeth May's thrilling and sexy romantasy series, perfect for fans of Raven Kennedy.

AN EMPRESS BOUND BY BLOOD. A GOD BOUND BY HATE. A CHOICE THAT COULD SHATTER TWO WORLDS.

Theodora Devaliant wasn't born to rule - she was born to bleed. The last Anchor of a cursed royal bloodline, her body alone upholds the fragile veil between divine and mortal realms. When her life is threatened and demigods are found slaughtered in her streets, the god-king issues an ultimatum: marry, produce an heir, or watch the realms burn. To ensure she survives long enough to comply, he sends his most lethal Enforcer to guard her. 

Bastien has spent centuries nursing his hatred for the Devaliant family. Convinced Theodora is behind the murders, he'll use his assignment as her bodyguard to gather proof and watch her empire crumble. But as desire blurs the lines between enemy and ally, the body count rises, and evidence points to a conspiracy that could shatter both their worlds. 

Because when duty and desire collide, and the veil between gods and humans begins to tear, choosing wrong doesn't just mean death - it means apocalypse.
