Shield of Sparrows: An Enemies-to-Lovers Epic Romantasy

Shield of Sparrows is a slow-burn, high-stakes romantasy set in the five kingdoms of Calandra, where gods once unleashed monsters to demonstrate human insignificance and dependence on divine mercy. A forgotten princess has spent twenty-three years performing an empty role, unlike her sister who thrives in the spectacle of royal life. When an infamous monster hunter arrives and a prince enters her father's throne room, her life changes. She marries a stranger, signs a magical blood treaty, and travels across the continent to the most treacherous kingdom in the realm. Through this journey, she discovers that myths are real, lies and legends blur together, and the only way to defeat the monsters she fears may be to become one herself. The story explores themes of enemies becoming lovers, with monsters wearing crowns and a princess discovering the power to burn a kingdom down.
