THEY CAME TO TAKE HER BROTHER... INSTEAD THEY MET HER SCYTHE

Every year the gods demand boys for the mines. When Leina slaughters the soldiers who come for her brother, she expects death.

Instead, she's claimed by a goddess and thrown into a world of winged warhorses, warring gods, cursed monsters - and Ryot, the god-sworn warrior ordered to keep her in line.

Bound by duty, shaped by discipline, Ryot is everything she's not. But he sees the fire in her. The power. The danger.

Leina never asked to be chosen. And she's certainly not interested in saving the kingdom that enslaved her people.

But destiny has other plans... and the gods should fear what they've awakened.

About the Author

CATY ROGAN wrote her first story at five-with crayons, dramatic flair, and a firm belief the Power Rangers were the villains. She later became an award-winning journalist, chasing stories across Texas, England, Indonesia, South Africa, and Equatorial Guinea. Now she writes spicy romantasy full of badass heroines and he-falls-first heroes. Caty lives in Arizona with her two boss-girl daughters and her husband-her real-life he-falls-first hero-and survives on caffeine, popcorn, and pure chaotic energy.
