He keeps staring at me, and a shiver prickles my spine. Body toned to perfection, he’s battle-chiseled and hard, the type of man who can cleave an enemy in two with little effort and even less consequence to his conscience. Black hair brushes a corded neck atop broad shoulders that have no doubt been swinging a sword since before he could walk. My heart thumping, I blink and take in the rest of him. His eyes remind me of Poseidon’s wrath-stormy, gray, intense-the kind of eyes that draw you in, hold you there, and might not let you go.Īdrenaline surges through me, ratcheting up my pulse. Our gazes collide, and something in me freezes. Watchful, alert, he’s aware of everything in his vicinity. He walks with predatory confidence, unhurried, and yet there’s no mistaking his potential for swift, explosive violence. He’s striking in a dark, magnetic way, his size, weapons, and bearing all telling me he’s a tribal warlord. "Bouchet skillfully melds the genres while crafting a sexy, emotional romance.He’s looking at me, and it’s hard not to look back. Cat fights him at every turn, but Griffin's fairness, loyalty, and smoldering advances make him increasingly hard to resist and leave her wondering if life really does have to be short, and lived alone.

He wants her as a powerful weapon for his newly conquered realm-until he realizes he wants her for much more than her magic. Griffin knows Cat is the Kingmaker, the woman who divines the truth through lies. That is, until Griffin, an ambitious warlord from the magic-deprived south, fixes her with his steely gaze and upsets her illusion of safety forever. She is perfectly content avoiding the danger and destiny the Gods-and her homicidal mother-have saddled her with.

KINGDOMS WILL RISE AND FALL FOR HER… BUT NOT IF SHE CAN HELP ITĬatalia "Cat" Fisa lives disguised as a soothsayer in a traveling circus.
