In Rouvelle, the guillotine has never failed.
Until Callan.
A human priest accused of practicing forbidden magic, Callan is sentenced to die beneath the guillotine. Lenore, the vampire chosen to carry out his execution, is meant to be the last person he ever sees. But when the blade falls, the execution goes wrong, and Callan vanishes, leaving behind a city on the brink of revolution.
Lenore has spent her life proving that her family is loyal to the vampire crown. Her mother was executed as a traitor, and becoming the king’s newest High Executioner is her best chance to restore her family’s name.
So when Callan disappears, Lenore chooses to hunt the man she could not kill.
And Vail is hunting her.
The king’s spymaster, Vail was once Lenore’s betrothed and the man she loved. Now their marriage is a political obligation, and Lenore no longer knows whether she can trust his heart or his loyalties.
But as rebellion spreads through Rouvelle, the three of them are drawn into a conspiracy buried at the heart of the vampire court. To survive, Lenore and Vail must confront the love they thought they had lost, while Callan must decide whether he can trust the two people who should be his enemies.
Because the king is searching for a forgotten magic that could free humanity from the vampire courts… or make their rule eternal.
A Pale Kingdom is a slow-burn MMF romantasy for fans of The Knight and the Moth and The Serpent and the Wings of Night.
Genre: Paranormal Romance
