<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><strong>Discover the white-hot fantasy romance that broke all the rules, where a fierce woman with powerful hidden magic goes toe-to-toe with the alpha warlord who abducted her...only to steal her heart.</strong></p><p><strong>KINGDOMS WILL RISE AND FALL FOR HER...</strong></p><p>Cat Fisa isn't who she pretends to be. She's perfectly content living disguised as a soothsayer in a traveling circus, avoiding the destiny the Gods--and her dangerous family--have saddled her with. As far as she's concerned, the magic humming within her blood can live and die with her. She won't be a pawn in anyone's game.</p><p>But then she locks eyes with an ambitious warlord from the magic-deprived south and her illusion of safety is shattered forever.</p><p>Griffin knows Cat is the Kingmaker--the woman who divines truth through lies--and he wants her to be a powerful weapon for his newly conquered realm. Kidnapping her off the street is simple enough, but keeping the fierce beauty by his side is infuriatingly tough. Cat fights him at every turn, showing a ferocity of spirit that burns hot...and leaves him desperate for more. But can he ever hope to prove to his once-captive that he wants her there by his side as his equal, his companion...and maybe someday, his Queen?</p><p><strong>Get ready to burn</strong>: This romantic fantasy reads like the fiercest fairytale and includes a protective alpha warlord, enemies who become so much more, high action, humor, heat, and a dangerous world where mythical creatures hide. Readers will want to return to this fantasy world again and again in its sequels <em>A Breath of Fire</em> and <em>Heart on Fire</em>.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Give this to your Game of Thrones fans. They will love the political plays, the dragons, and the adventure. Bouchet is a debut author to watch." - <strong><em> Booklist STARRED Review</em></strong><br><br>"Debut author Bouchet tells a swashbuckling tale through Cat's irreverent, diffident, yet still somehow buoyant first-person point of view; this is an exquisite high-fantasy romance with masterful worldbuilding based on Greek mythology. An exciting fantasy/romance debut: action-packed, emotionally charged, and skillfully plotted." - <strong><em> Kirkus Reviews</em></strong><br><br>"High fantasy is a rare find in romance - complex world-building and political machinations can get in the way of a central, essential love story - but Bouchet skillfully melds the genres while crafting a sexy, emotional romance. Griffin and Cat are beautifully matched - together, her magic and his might make for a sparkling read. A Best Romance of the Month." - <strong><em> The Washington Post</em></strong><br><br>"If you're looking for a magical book with heart, romance, adventure, and characters who stay with you long after the book ends, try A <i>Promise of Fire</i>.
