Book 2 of 2: Blood & Souls Duology
Heartbroken and grappling with unwanted powers, Revna must work with the person she swore to forget if she’s to lead her people and unravel the secrets behind her new magic in this page-turning conclusion to the Blood & Souls Duology.
After winning the Bloodshed Trials, Revna has the crown she wanted. What she didn’t want was the newfound Lurae abilities she manifested. Still, she’s determined to bring equality to her people and end the holy war draining her kingdom’s resources. But the godtouched fear her, the godforsaken don’t trust her, and her best friend doesn’t know the truth she’s been hiding. When the war-ending treaty is signed, Revna will reveal her secrets and finally put the Hellbringer behind her.
Except the Kryllian Queen refuses to sign the treaty when she discovers how volatile Revna’s bloodsinging is. Desperate for any alliance, Revna begrudgingly agrees to the queen’s proposal: if Revna can learn to control her magic in three weeks, negotiations will resume. But there’s a catch—the queen’s general will be the one training her.
Revna will work with the Hellbringer once more, though she won’t make it easy. But when the general discovers that the dead are unable to pass on, they realize there’s more at stake than their tangled relationship. Ancient, powerful secrets tie the realm—and Revna and the Hellbringer—together, and their only hope of lasting peace is to unweave them.

Book 1 of 2: Blood & Souls Duology
A
heart-pounding romantasy following a rebellious princess who must
compete to the death against her siblings for the crown to ensure
justice, while fighting her feelings for her country's most powerful
enemy by debut author Alexandra Kennington
Revna is no stranger
to struggle. As the only member of the royal family without a magical
ability, she is seen as an embarrassing mistake by her kingdom and a
blight on her bloodline. Luckily, Revna has found family in other
outcasts in her kingdom. But when her two closest friends’ lives are put
in danger, she is determined to save them by any means necessary, no
matter the cost. The Bloodshed Trials—a competition where the last
sibling in the royal family standing takes the throne—might just be the
ultimate price.
Revna turns down her arranged marriage and
commits to competing for the throne only to be kidnapped by the
mysterious and terrifyingly powerful Hellbringer, the general of her
country’s greatest enemy. He has the ability to rend souls with the
flick of his wrist and is every inch as intimidating as the war stories
say he is. But Revna wonders if there may be some humanity left in
him—especially when he reveals there are other parties who want her on
the throne for their own secret reasons.
