Queen of Reckoning: An enemies-to-more romantasy of a reluctant queen, a half-blind envoy, and the slow-burn romance that might be worth risking a kingdom for.

Enemies-to-more. Forced proximity. A queen who rules by magic and the one man she can’t disarm. Mandzee Hamartano didn’t ask to be queen. She didn’t ask for the peace treaty that’s turned half her city against her, the mage tournament that’s about to put her life on the line, or the envoy from Armonguard who’s moved into her palace and refuses to leave. She certainly didn’t ask to fall for him. Lovell Dunn is King Gidon’s royal envoy, tasked with one job: shadow the queen, keep the treaty, and report back. He’s not there to be charmed by a mage with copper eyes and a laugh that could melt stone. He’s especially not there to let her heal the condition that’s been stealing his sight for years. But Mandzee is in more danger than either of them realizes. A deadly mage tournament is being used as a killing ground. A dark force is gathering inside her walls. And her brother—believed dead—has just walked out of the shadows with a powerful spirit at his command and a blade aimed at her throne. To save her city, Mandzee will have to trust an Armanite who distrusts magic. And Lovell will have to risk the one future he’s been fighting for—to protect the one woman he can’t get out of his head. Queen of Reckoning is a faith-forward romantasy featuring:

• Enemies-to-more slow burn romance that simmers on every page • A fierce, morally complex queen learning to lead with mercy instead of fear • A half-blind hero whose wit is sharper than any sword • Forced proximity, interrupted kisses, and one very inconvenient dungeon • Political intrigue, a deadly tournament, and shadow forces threatening an entire city • A faith journey woven through the action—hope, redemption, and trusting in something greater
