“I’d killed a man with my bare hands. And almost kissed the man I pretended to hate more.”

💙BLURB👑
She’s been kidnapped by mistake. But, neither the
secret society, nor her exasperating mentor, will
let her go.
At thirty-two, Ophelia Calder had one last chance to
be inducted into one of the four magical societies of
Cipheria. Instead, she’s rejected, relegated to continue
her magicless life paying off rising taxes she’ll never
be able to afford. If only that was the worst of her
problems.
Ophelia returns to a ransacked home and her twin
sister missing. Before she can search for clues,
Ophelia is kidnapped and thrust into a secret society
that shouldn’t exist. Only, Ophelia had never been the
intended target—her sister was.
The arrogant, condescending, kidnapper Garrett Adams realizes his error far too late and Ophelia
must choose; swear a blood oath to the society or die.
Now, Ophelia is forced to learn how deep the corruption and carefully crafted lies go in her world.
But no rising rebellion will keep her from finding her sister. She vows to use every available
resource to get her back. Whether it’s allying with her fellow mentees, accepting her infuriating
mentor, or taking matters into her own hands and killing anyone who stands in her way.

TOMORROW!!!! 🙌🥳 One more sleep until By the Flames of Her Fury by @vblacey.books is out in the world and you can meet the EPIC yearner that is Everett Swift! ❤️‍🔥

What’s it about?
One year ago, Vera Duma left her life behind to hunt down the man who stole her childhood and kept her locked in a cell. Now, her vengeance has led her somewhere she never expected: a lost kingdom hidden from the world for a millennium, whose rulers believe Vera is the one prophesied to raise them from the dark. When her past lover and fellow prisoner, Everett Swift, chases her into this new world, her quest becomes more complicated. Their love is rekindled as the kingdom’s secrets unravel, and Vera must decide what she’s fighting for before her power is used to unleash something far more dangerous. 🏴‍☠️📖⚔️

By the Flames of Her Fury is the 4th and FINAL book in a series of interconnected standalones. It can be read on its own, but we highly recommend reading the first 3!
Book 1: In the Wake of the Wicked (deadly trials and witchy magic, yes please) 🐍🕯️
Book 2: Of the Curse or the Crown (forbidden love with SO MUCH yearning) 🦊👑
Book 3: From the Silence of the Shadows (dragon daddy Nox. that’s it) 🐉❤️‍🔥
