![]() ![]() Vicious Bonds (The Tether series) by Shanora Williams The spice doesn’t hit until nearly the end. Hashem’s debut is enemies-to-possible lovers that fantasy romance readers will eat up. To win, she’ll need to work with Arin - all while hiding her true identity as Jasad’s heir. ![]() When a moment of anger exposes Sylvia’s magic, Arin offers her a deal: compete as Nizahl’s Champion in the Alcalah tournament to avoid death. Arin is cold and calculating with a mind cut for political brilliance and a deep hatred for magic. For years, Sylvia and her magic have been in hiding until Arin, the Nizahl Heir, tracks a group of rebels to Sylvia’s village and the quiet life she's crafted unravels. The Nizahl's armies laid waste to the Kingdom of Jasad and banned magic across the four remaining kingdoms. At only 10 years old, Sylvia fled her family’s massacre by 15, she buried her first body, and by 20, she’s in hiding after her third attempt to return home. Like Armentrout, Hashem beautifully creates a story of intrigue and high stakes. This debut from Sara Hashem is an Egyptian-inspired fantasy that follows a fugitive heir to the throne, Sylvia, whose magic and past threaten to upend her future.

The fantasy romance industry is booming, but there are voices distinct enough to cut through the noise, and Armentrout’s From Blood and Ash (FBAA) does just that. Anne Cofell Saunders ( The Boys, Star Trek: Discovery, Battlestar Galactica) has been tapped as the showrunner and will adapt the series, so fans of FBAA’s Poppy and Casteel should be optimistic. Big news for fantasy romance lovers! New York Times bestselling author Jennifer Armentrout announced earlier this month that her popular fantasy series From Blood and Ash is going to be a scripted Amazon show. ![]()
