Book Detail

Four deadly trials will reunite them. One secret will tear them apart.

When a mission goes wrong, When a mission goes wrong and ends with her best friend dead, Drusilla Valerius is rescued by someone she never expected to see again: Marcus Scaevola. The only man she’s ever cared for—the man who spurned her feelings six years ago.

And the only person who’s ever defected from the Faithless, despite his claims otherwise.

Marcus should’ve known Dru wouldn’t be the same woman he left all those years ago. But he has a purpose for seeking her out. He convinces her to train King Cato of Anziano in the Valorem Blood Trials. A violent tradition from Anziano’s past held every hundred years, participants must survive four deadly competitions for a chance at glory. 

But, unlike years’ past, the Imperium has a heavy hand in it, touting peace and unity.

When both Dru and Marcus find themselves joining the competition, they’re forced to trust one another with their lives. Now inescapably entrenched in the gory, duplicitous world of the blood trials, feelings long-buried surface, blurring the lines between duty and honor, love and loyalty.

But Marcus carries a devastating secret–one that will destroy the foundations of Dru’s world, her deepest beliefs, and both their hearts.

Don’t miss this adult romantasy debut combining the deadly trials of Gladiator and Bloodguard with the second-chance romance of Heartless Hunter and The Princess Bride. Coming April 15, 2025 from Aethon books!
