The Cursed One: A Slow-Burn Enemies-to-Lovers Romantasy (Chaos Saga)

About this book

Lyrianna Cavendish has spent a lifetime in the shadows, desperate to conceal the volatile magic that marks her as a threat to the realm. But when a twist of fate exposes her secret, she is thrust into the deadly ranks of the Chosen. Surrounded by suspicious rulers and enemies who fear her very existence, Lyrianna finds herself at the center of a kingdom on the brink of collapse as the protective Wall begins to fracture and primordial Chaos seeps into her world. Her only constant in this hostile environment is Arès, a ruthless commander sworn to oppose everything she represents. Their relationship is a high-stakes game of enemies-to-lovers tension; Arès is determined to loathe her, yet he finds himself irresistibly drawn to the woman he is meant to destroy. As Lyrianna’s powers evolve into a force that defies all understanding, she must navigate a treacherous path of forbidden attraction and dark prophecy. Caught between duty and an uncontrollable, burgeoning desire, Lyrianna fights to uncover the truth of her own transformation. With the fate of the world hanging in the balance, she must master her volatile gifts before the encroaching Chaos claims her—and everything she loves—completely.
