Waking up and seeing that I got approved on Netgalley for an ARC of Our Vicious Oaths by @niadavenport.bsky.social is definitely a great way to start the week 🤩

💙📚 🪐📚 🌍📚

#netgalley #ourviciousoaths
Book cover of Our Vicious Oaths by N.E. Davenport. Purple Vines and flowers on a black backdrop. A gold dragon is flying above the title. Blurb: Enter a new world of romantic fantasy from award-winning author N.E. Davenport—a journey of powerful magic, enemies-to-lovers, and political intrigue—as a warrior-princess and a vengeful king from rival fae courts form a fierce alliance to take down a merciless despot. Princess of the Aether Dominion, Kadeesha wants nothing to do with fae politics. She is a warrior, first and foremost, and believes her greatest strength is leading her squadron of elite winged serpent flyers to protect her homeland. But bound since infancy to be betrothed to the Hyperion High King, ruler of all Dominions, she has no choice but to do what men have chosen for her. Repulsed by the idea, she decides to spend one last night of freedom—in the arms of a dangerous stranger who takes her to sexual heights she’s never experienced before…but who is only using Kadeesha to set a trap for the High King. For the High King and the kings of his six Dominions were responsible for the decimation of the Apollyon Court, and its new king, Malachi, wants his pounds of flesh. On Kadeesha’s wedding day, Malachi and his special forces attack. Her father is killed, and Malachi wounds the High King, ultimately taking Kadeesha as hostage back to his land. But she is no true hostage. The two form a pact: she will help lure the High King so Malachi can kill him once and for all, and he in turn will not harm Kadeesha or the Aether people. And as much as Kadeesha hates politics, she is now the Queen of her folk. Fae bonds are unbreakable…and so, perhaps, is the attraction Kadeesha and Malachi feel for each other. For even as they must publicly display their connection to provoke the High King’s jealousy, they struggle to resist the powerful allure between them in order to achieve their ultimate goals.

Cover of The Divorcétante by Mia Heintzelman. The cover has a soft pink background, and the top and bottom are covered with abstract rendition of hot pink flowers. In the middle of the flowers, we see a brown skin woman in a golden yellow dress with her hands on her hips. She's wearing a gold coloured choker with a crown bead. We only see the bottom half of ger face. She wears a dark red lipstick, and her black hair is cut in an earlength pixie bob style. The title is in bold, yellow lettering.

That being said, after approximately 6 months, I decided to continue Elena A. Mugdan's Shadow War Saga today. In my defence, I will say that bk3 utterly wrecked me and tore my heart into pieces. Book 4 is still emotional, but there's also room for healing. Im glad I picked it up again

A Tropical Rebel Gets The Duke by Adriana Herrera
5⭐️

Thoughts:
Historical romance at its best. A heartening reminder that not only in fiction but throughout history, despite the horrors, there's always been BIPOC persisting and thriving in the real world, too.

What kind of jewellery do you have in it? I'm asking because mine kept being irritated/bordering on inflammation for over a year until I switched out the ring for one that can barely move around (as opposed to a standard round ring).

Green Fuse Burning by Tiffany Morris / 4⭐️

Surrealistic and gripping story. For awhile, we're teetering on the edge, wondering if Rita's suffering a mental break or if there's something lurking in the swamp. The authors writing is beautiful.
