What if to avenge her uncle, she must marry his killer?The only Royal in history without magic, Analia has clawed for what little respect she has. But when her uncle-her one protection against her people's disdain-is found dead after a meeting with a neighboring kingdom, Analia has nothing left.

Desperate for justice, Analia infiltrates the rival kingdom under the guise of a truce marriage. Surrounded by deception and powerful magic, she knows she can't afford to trust.

But trusting an infuriatingly charming guard might be her only hope of solving the case. Her suspects, however, aren't what she anticipates.

Despite their deadly suspicions, they offer her a home, and a betrothed whose honey gaze is as sweet as his words. But all good poisons are designed to go down easy.

With every day, motives become dead ends, mounting deaths threaten war across kingdoms, and Analia's struggle to face her grief ensnares her in a far more treacherous web. For while Analia knows her uncle's killer lurks in the shadows, her heart might remember too late-in a kingdom where love always has a price.

Kingdom of Masks and Mourning is the first book in a new series filled with heart-wrenching romance, deadly magic, and world-shattering secrets, perfect for fans of A Court of Thorns and Roses and From Blood and Ash. .
