Three hearts. Two kingdoms. One fragile alliance that could change everything.

In the high-stakes sequel to Warrior Princess Assassin, Brigid Kemmerer returns with a sweeping romantasy filled with dangerous magic, political intrigue, simmering desire, and three characters whose complicated bond continues to defy expectations. For Jory, Asher, and Ky, duty and desire are becoming increasingly impossible to separate.

The Vibe

Princess Jory is caught between the expectations of royalty and the growing strength she has discovered within herself. Maddox Kyronan, a formidable warrior king with fire magic, must balance the weight of his crown with the relationships that have begun to matter more than he ever expected. And Asher, Jory's fiercely loyal childhood friend turned assassin, carries scars of his own while navigating a bond that has become far more complicated than either of them anticipated.

Together, the three face a world where alliances are fragile, kingdoms are under pressure, and trust can be every bit as dangerous as betrayal. Their relationship brings tenderness and tension to a story packed with political maneuvering, magic, and looming threats.

With its blend of passionate romance, royal drama, found family, and fantasy adventure, Captive Traitor King is perfect for readers who love romantasy where the love story is just as emotionally compelling as the world surrounding it.
