Perfect for you if...

  • You love enemies-to-lovers romance where the power dynamic is genuinely fraught and the emotional stakes feel real.
  • You're drawn to dark fantasy that doesn't shy away from trauma but promises redemption and tenderness underneath.

Maybe not for you if...

  • You need your fantasy settings to feel fresh and inventive. This builds on familiar dark romantasy tropes without reinventing them.
  • You struggle with stories involving captivity or coercion, even when handled with care and leading toward healing.
  • You prefer lighter fantasy with quick pacing. This one luxuriates in emotion and world-building.

About this book

Rose in Chains is the first book in The Evermore Trilogy. The story follows Briony Rosewood, princess of Evermore, after a war ends in defeat. Dark forces have won, the hero meant to save her people is dead, and Briony is captured as her castle falls to the enemy. Stripped of her magic and freedom, Briony is sold at auction to the highest bidder along with other survivors. She is purchased by Toven Hearst, a member of a family known for their cruelty. Now enslaved in this new world, Briony must navigate her circumstances as her people face servitude, imprisonment, or death. Despite the darkness of her situation, hope may emerge from unexpected sources. The novel combines romantic fantasy with themes of magic, intrigue, and an enemies-to-lovers relationship.
