The Curse of Broken Shadows
by Laura Winter
Why Read This?The one-sentence sell. What do you get for showing up to this book, even when it's hard?
The worldbuilding is rich without being overwhelming, Brela is a chaotic assassin you can't help but root for, and the enemies-to-lovers arc between her and Cason earns every beat. The found family dynamics elevate it beyond a standard fantasy romance, and that cliffhanger will have you grabbing Book 2 immediately.
Synopsis
E se de repente você se visse apaixonada por uma garota que mora a 1276 quilômetros de distância? Certo, eu sei, muita gente se apaixona a distância. Mas e se você fosse princesa da Noruega? Analice Ingrid Alexandra é princesa da Noruega e herdeira ao trono. Na tentativa de fugir de sua realidade ela decidiu criar uma pessoa completamente diferente na internet, ela só não esperava conhecer o que ela diria ser o amor de sua vida, Maya Cadron. Em um breve conto descobriremos se Analice vai desenrolar essa paixão ou fugir de sua realidade como é de seu costume.
