Summary: Welcome to the Unsurvivable Love Duet, the all-new series by Jasmine Mas, bestselling author of Blood of Hercules.
The Emperor’s Enemy is an addictive true enemies-to-lovers dark romantasy with a heroine who doesn’t need saving, an enemy she can’t escape, and a war neither of them plans to lose. The limited deluxe edition features beautifully designed sprayed edges, a foil-stamped case, and full-color character art endpapers—available while supplies last!
When the hunter is hunted… who becomes prey?
Zora Ravenal didn’t join the Crimson Army to be a hero. She joined to destroy the empire.
A skilled hunter hardened by loss with a concerning capacity for stubbornness, Zora claws her way into becoming a Knight Mage: the Commonwealth’s deadliest defense against the Empire’s storm magic and her people’s only hope.
It almost works.
Now she’s stuck in a war she can’t walk away from, hiding dangerous secrets, and shoved into very close quarters with the one man she should never be alone with.
He’s a Royal Mage with a body count, a temper, and an unsettling obsession… with her.
Now they’re partners.
Sort of.
If “partners” means being forced to train together, trust each other with their lives, and somehow not kill each other in the process.
But the Royal Mage isn’t just dangerous—he’s paying attention. And the longer they’re forced to remain in each other’s orbit, the more twisted everything becomes. Who’s hunting who?
“Delightfully unhinged… A five-star read, dripping in blood. Adored!”
—Brigette Knightly, New York Times bestselling author of The Irresistible Urge to Fall for Your Enemy
Tropes: Enemies to lovers / Sarcastic banter / A spicy slow burn / Touch her and die / Female rage / Forced proximity / A shocking twist you will NOT see coming
Looking for more delectably unhinged romantasy? Fall into Jasmine Mas’s worlds with Blood of Hercules, Bonds of Hercules, Battle for Hercules (coming soon), Psycho Shifters, Psycho Fae, and Psycho Beasts.
