The Sorcerer (Rebel and Ruin Book 1)

Seduce him. Betray him. Fall for him anyway. He’s an imperial sorcerer. Janek Lanari has devoted his life to the service of the Ghadrian Empire. When a coup threatens the royal family, Janek is charged with protecting the crown prince while the emperor hunts down the traitors inside the palace. Forced into hiding on wild and remote Erys, Janek is determined to see to it that both prince and empire survive. She’s a rebel spy. Lorel's brother is rotting away in a Ghadrian dungeon and she’ll do whatever it takes to get him out—join the rebellion, infiltrate the Keep, even seduce the emperor's butcher. Whatever the cost, she’ll set her brother free, and then she’ll watch the empire burn. But Janek isn’t what she expected, while Lorel is everything he’s been trained to resist. When passion collides with betrayal, they must choose between saving the people they’ve sworn to protect and saving each other. An epic romantasy featuring mature protagonists, enemies to lovers, political intrigue, forbidden magic, and a spicy romance between an imperial sorcerer and a rebel spy.
