Bride of the Broken Vow
by Jess Rae

She was sent to the stormlord as a sacrifice.

Nalara Wren had spent her life as a servant in the palace kitchens, unseen, unwanted, and told she was nothing. Magicless. Nameless. Disposable.

Then the king chained her in a wagon and sent her to Blackmere Keep in place of his own daughter.

The cursed stormlord, Torvian Ashmere, was supposed to claim her as his bride. Instead, he broke her chains and gave her a choice.

But Blackmere is not just a keep. It is a prison built over an ancient god. A broken vow sleeps beneath its stones, and Nalara's blood may be the key to waking it.

As old lies unravel, Nalara discovers she is not the powerless girl Caldris tried to bury.

With a kingdom hunting her, a god calling from below, and a stormlord who would rather lose her than cage her, Nalara must decide who she truly is.

Servant. Sacrifice. Daughter. Bride.

Or storm.
