Description
A barrier divides two deadly worlds. In one, humans are hunted, killed, or worse, used as weapons against their own people. In the other, fear of magic runs rampant, and anyone associated with it is burned alive.
When human-born Elyn witnesses a murder at the hands of a magralot demon, a magic she never wanted erupts, earning her a one-way ticket to the pyre.
Desperate to escape the flames, Elyn devises a plan to frame someone else. There's just one problem-the handsome bastard kidnaps her instead.
Aiden, a reckless haxa warrior, drags Elyn across the barrier to Tör military camp to harness her magic. She must learn to control it-and fast-before it gets her killed. Or costs her the only home she's ever known.
But Elyn isn't the only one hiding something, and the unraveling of lies threatens more than just camp. Forced to choose between her life and her humanity, Elyn must expose her secrets or condemn Tör's people to brutal deaths.
This is a new adult romantic fantasy with morally grey characters, forced proximity, magic training, political tension, and high-stakes romance.

This book has everything I'm looking for in Fantasy - gritty world, cool magic system, banter, fight scenes, lots of opportunity for forced proximity, and just enough political intrigue to set the stakes sky-high!
This book was amazing! I love it all so much! Elyn is incredible, and the world just sucks you in. I can't wait for the next book. 100% recommend!
Promised to the Pyre had me hooked and I could not put it down! I loved the story, the bits of magic we have learned so far, and the mysteries to be discovered! Does not end on a cliffhanger but sets up the next book perfectly!! A must read!
PERFECTION !!!
Wow. I was hooked from page one!����
I couldn't put this book down - I literally devoured it in two days. Promised to the Pyre gave me serious Direbound vibes, with a strong, warrior-type heroine thrown into a dangerous magical world.
Okay, listen. I don't even know where to start because this book was so good that my brain is still malfunctioning. I started reading and suddenly hours passed, and I forgot to breathe because I just could. not. stop. The world? Stunning. The lore? Delicious. The magic system? So unique I swear I've never read anything like it before. Every detail felt so intentional, and I'm still in awe at how it all fit together. I was completely obsessed, like, this-is-all-I-want-to-think-about obsessed.
