A vow in Ashes
Marry him or die." It's the kind of choice that doesn't feel like a choice at all. When Isolde Kade wakes up in a foreign country with a ring on her finger and a man she doesn't recognize standing over her, she knows two things: she has no memory of the past seven days, and the man she's married to is dangerous. Luka Valerius is a name spoken in whispers, a shadow in the underworld, a man who owns half the world and rules the rest from the palm of his hand. The rumors say he kills without hesitation. That he burns cities to the ground when he's bored. That his touch is a death sentence. And yet, he holds her like he's afraid she'll disappear. As Isolde fights to uncover the truth-about her marriage, about Luka, about the dark secrets tethering her to a past she can't remember-she realizes too late that there are worse things than being married to a monster. Because sometimes, the real villain is the one pulling the strings from the shadows.
