About the Book

You want power? Take it. You want magic? Take it.

Rune Ryker has nothing left to lose. It’s all been stolen by the Immortals—her family, her home, her freedom. But she’s done playing by their rules.

 

While every year, mortals are chosen against their will to journey into the Immortal Realms, Rune orchestrates her own selection, determined to find her family and destroy anyone who stands in her way. But her survival depends on making it through the Forge, a college that teaches the elusive tarot magic of the Immortal Druids. And when Rune’s magic reveals itself to be the rarest and most powerful, she’s forced to live with its only other wielder—Prince Draven. Devastatingly handsome, and insufferably haughty with ruthless ambition, he’s the last person she can trust.

 

Her ability draws the attention of the most dangerous druids in the realms, making it all the harder to survive and save her family. Some want to use her. More want her dead. Draven offers to train her . . . for a price. As Rune becomes ensnared in Draven’s dangerous games, she learns there are secrets at the heart of the kingdom that some will kill to protect.

 

And Rune and Draven’s growing attraction may be the spark to ignite a brewing war.

 

A Vow in Vengeance is a sexy, action-packed, banter-filled romantasy about choice and destiny and how love binds us all.
