Description

"A Tolkien-esque world combined with an eighteenth-century historical romance produces a satisfying tale with twists you'll never expect. Excellent!"—Jennifer Ashley, New York Times and USA Today bestselling author A unique combination of historical and fantasy romance, The Fire Lord's Lover will fascinate readers of Karen Monin, Jennifer Armentrout, Kresley Cole, and Diane Duval who will adore this imaginative unexpected love story between the son of a tyrant and the woman sent to take them both down. In a magical land ruled by ruthless Elven lords, the Fire Lord's son Dominic Raikes plays a deadly game to conceal his growing might from his malevolent father—until his arranged bride awakens in him passions he thought he had buried forever. Lady Cassandra has been raised in outward purity and innocence, while secretly being trained as an assassin. Her mission is to bring down the Elven Lord and his champion son. But when she gets to court she discovers that nothing is what it seems, least of all the man she married. But beneath the gilded castles lies an unspeakable evil, greater than either Dominic or Cassandra had ever fathomed, and without each other they may not survive. What readers and reviewers are saying about The Fire Lord's Lover: "It was so good that I read it in one day...and then I read it again!!" "It was different; keeping me entranced trying to figure out what was going to happen next." "...engaged and engrossed right from the first chapter in the fascinating world of Elvin magic and ensuing romance." "It's very satisfying, as addictive as chocolate covered pretzels with a side of Nutella." "...so well written and her characters are so rich and captivating that I simply could not put it down."—The San Francisco Book Review "A very unique series that will enchant lovers of historicals and fantasy. A beautiful gem to be treasured."—Booklovers, Inc. "Charming, sweeping-of-your-feet romantic and toe-curling sensuous"—Erotic Horizon "As darkly imaginative as Tolkien, as richly romantic as Heyer, Kennedy carves a new genre in romantic fiction."—Erin Quinn, author of Haunting Warrior "[Kennedy] has created characters that live and breathe between the pages; a talent which is, in my opinion, a hallmark of skilled storytelling."—Fresh Fiction "Ms. Kennedy's a pro at creating memorable characters, comical situations, a fun dialog, and an endearing love story."—Sia McKye's Thoughts Over Coffee
