It's the hottest romantasy sensation that everyone is talking about!

What do you get if you mix Fourth Wing with Zodiac Academy, a dash of Arthurian legend, and lots and lots of vampires?

Welcome to Bloodwing Academy.

Expect magic. Expect competition. Expect blood.

……..

The reader reviews say it all!

‘THIS. IS. HOW. YOU. DO. A. SEQUEL’ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐

‘This is the next Fourth Wing I swear’ ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

‘Highly recommend if you’re into fantasy with spice, epic betrayals, and creatures with big personalities’ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐

‘Action-packed, full of delicious tension & the spice was fire’ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐

……..

At Bloodwing Academy, blood is currency, but a dragon's legacy is priceless – and as dangerous as fire.

I thought surviving my first year in Bloodwing's deadly halls would be enough. I was wrong.

I accidentally woke a dragon – a creature of myth, of death, of fire.

Now every highblood house wants control over me and the dragon's legacy I carry. But here's the truth: I have no control. I'm bluffing my way through every encounter, trying to keep everyone from realising that I'm not the one pulling the dragon's strings.

And then there's Blake Drakharrow. I thought he was on my side, that I might even be able to trust him. But he betrayed me. Now I'm his only blood source. How messed up is that? In a place like Bloodwing, where power and survival are everything, this bond may well be the death of us both. Unless I can find a way to end it.

In this world of vampires, dragons, and lies, there are no happy endings. Just legends – and the darkness it takes to make them.

……..

Perfect for fans of:

Dragons, Vampires and Fae

Slow-burn and spice

Enemies-to-lovers and fated mates

……..

Readers can't stop praising The Bond that Burns:

‘It’s been a long time since the magic of a book series captured me like Harry Potter or Fourth Wing, but this absolutely delivered’ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐

‘I loved the first book, but this book was even better!’ ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

‘There’s so much tension, angst, and yearning between Medra and Blake, and the spice was DELICIOUS’ ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
