A Dark Enemies to Lovers Fantasy RomanceBy Marcus Draye
Length13h 3m
About this audiobook
He saved her life. Then he spent seven years hoping she'd die before she came back.
Kael is the Ice Court's most feared enforcer — the man the king sends when an order needs to be obeyed and forgotten. The one order he refused was her. He smuggled the princess across the border, told himself it was mercy, and has been destroying every whisper of her name ever since.
Now Lysandra is back with an army of exiles, a smile like a blade, and a very good idea of exactly what he is. When an avalanche traps them together in a collapsing fortress with a wounded garrison and nowhere to run, the war between them becomes a war for survival — and the letters he never sent stop being a secret.
He can kill her. He can crown her. He cannot keep pretending he didn't choose her seven years ago.
A slow-burn, snowbound enemies to lovers fantasy romance for readers who want their conflict cold and their confessions colder.
