Descendant of an oathbreaking royal bloodline. And now, by command of the Crown, Fiorenna's unwilling guard.But Maeron knows more about the ruined bells than he admits.His family possesses a fragment of the same forbidden metal. His dead brother left behind a warning connected to Fiorenna. And when their marks react to each other, Fiorenna discovers that the Crown has been preparing for their meeting since long before either of them understood what their blood could do.Every test reveals another lie.Every oath hides another victim.And the ancient magic binding Fiorenna and Maeron together was never designed to protect them.It was designed to make one of them obey and the other capable of ending them.As assassination attempts, political marriage, hidden royal chambers and forbidden histories close around them, Fiorenna must decide whether the dangerous prince beside her is another weapon meant to control her, or the first man willing to let her choose what happens next.Because the Crown wants a vessel.The bells want a queen.And Fiorenna Thornmere intends to become neither on anyone else's terms.The Salt-Oathed Lord is Book One of The Queen of Ruined Bells, a dark adult romantasy trilogy featuring a cursed queen, enemy prince, forced proximity, forbidden crown bond, knife-to-throat tension, royal conspiracy, ancient magic, slow-burn desire and a continuing romance where every vow has a price.
