Inhaltsangabe

"A crown or a coffin. That's what he was offering me." Two ambitious women. Three dangerous love interests. One brutal empire on the brink of a bloody magical revolution. MIRA enters the emperor's deadly Trials for vengeance, armed with raw magic and fury. To win a place in an elite magical Order-and put a dagger through the tyrant's throat-she must triumph over blood-soaked arena fights and tests of seduction and cunning. But when she dares to steal from ruthless Prince Cassius, her audacity captures his interest-prompting a deadly bargain for power that leaves her life in his hands. Caught between a morally gray prince who shares her bloodthirsty ambition, and Aric, her fiercely loyal combat instructor who fights for the resistance, the choice between duty and desire threatens to become Mira's undoing. SCARLETT is an illegitimate princess fighting to survive her treacherous family and murderous half-brothers. As the royal patron of the Order of Masks-a lethal, magical league of female assassins-she is in the perfect position to forge Mira into the ultimate weapon to help her take the throne. But as they orchestrate their rebellion from the shadows, Scarlett's greatest vulnerability isn't her treason-it's Severin, her secret seer lover, who commands shadow magic and can see the threads of the future. Their love is a death sentence, and every stolen touch risks exposing a treasonous passion the emperor will gladly execute them for. Together, two fierce women underestimated by a brutal and corrupt empire will risk everything-including their hearts-to shatter their chains and strike back against the regime that tried to control them. After all, that's what the Order of Masks was created for. Three words, designed to bring down empires: In¿ltrate. Exploit. Destroy. Perfect for fans of Carissa Broadbent, Penn Cole, and Danielle L. Jensen, The Order of Masks by Alina Bellchambers is a dark, seductive romantic fantasy duology packed with calculated court politics, lethal trials, and searing enemies-to-lovers romance.
