UPON A BROKEN THRONE
her family broke the bargain - but she must pay the price
COMING 27 JAN, 2026
KING OF RAVENS
He’ll do anything to keep her. She’ll do anything to escape.
Rhiannon is dying – of what she doesn’t know. Kept protected by her family in their clifftop home, she spends her days searching for a cure.
Her world is torn apart when an unseelie King of the Dead arrives and gives her a simple choice: descend to the underworld as his bride or he’ll take her family instead.
Trapped in a twisted bargain, Rhiannon is thrust into a world of withered gods, scheming courtiers, and ancient magic, but she refuses to be a pawn in a game she never agreed to play. Her new husband is powerful, cold, and infuriating and she is determined to hate him.
But in a court where beauty masks cruelty and every promise has teeth, hatred burns slowly into something else. Something dangerous. Something that could undo them both…
King of Ravens is book one in the duology, Upon a Broken Throne.
