FEATURE FRIDAY: Daughter of the Drowned Empire by Frankie Diane Mallis

I’m still in an awful slump, so after my current read, I’ll be diving into Daughter of the Drowned Empire by Frankie Diane Mallis. I haven’t read a romantasy in a while, so I’m pretty excited!

ʙʟᴜʀʙ
“To survive is to sacrifice your own heart.

Lady Lyriana Batavia is third in line to the Seat of Power in Bamaria. And with the most eligible bachelor and master mage, Lord Tristan Grey, soon to be her fiancé – life is perfect.

But at the ceremony that should have revealed her power, she uncovers something else entirely – Lyr is powerless. Faced with uncertainty, Lyr has no choice but to accept a deadly offer. She has seven months to train as one of the kingdom’s most brutal warriors – the Sotrui – and survive training at the academy.

Now, Lyr must earn her place in Bamaria and train with the exiled Lord Rhyan Hart—the man she has secretly loved since she was a girl—and a feared warrior, forbidden to her in every way. For Lyr, surviving training may mean sacrificing her own heart.

Daughter of the Drowned Empire is the first in a sensational romantic series featuring a riches-to-rags heroine, dangerous court politics, and a forbidden slow-burn romance. Perfect for fans of Jennifer L. Armentrout, Danielle L. Jensen, and Rebecca Yarros.”
