I am the silent guardian.
I am the one who stands between monsters and their prey.
By day, Im an unassuming apothecary. By night, a powerful runecaster veiled in secrecy. My magic once protected the people of Ironset from The Harrow's soldiers. Now, the new king has brought peace, but I find myself caught between the bookish life I've cultivated and the old urge to indulge in darker pursuits.
Everything changes when Magnus rents a room next to mine.
He thinks Im a timid spinster, a low-level apothecary who wears spectacles and doesnt know how to have fun.
I think he should take a dive off the back staircase.
Everything about him disrupts my existence, from the women he brings home at all hours to his infuriating drive to protect me when I dont need it. But as the kingdoms peace is threatened by enemies both without and within, our paths intertwine.
And I must become a protector once again.
The closer I work with him, the more our arguments ignite into something dangerous, something compelling. Lines blur, emotions and desires running as wild as the magic I secretly wield.
The more I get to know the former monster hunter, the more I realize just how alike we really are. And that he has secrets too.
Of Monsters and Runes is book 1 in The Runes of Sorrow Duet.
It is a slow-burn dark romantasy with hate to love, secrets, a bad*ss, brainy FMC, a part giant playboy MMC, and sizzling banter. This duet can be enjoyed on its own without reading the other books in the Wanderers of Ruin world, but it does contain spoilers for The Iron Raven Duet. It is told in dual POV, and will end on a cliffhanger.
This book is meant for adults 18 and over. It contains mature language, graphic violence, and explicit content with darker elements. Please check the authors website for CW/TW.
Genre: Paranormal Romance
