Cozy fantasy romance • enchanted sword bodyguard • road-trip-ish adventure • witty, warm, Princess Bride energy

A cozy, funny fantasy romance where the “magical weapon” comes with a built-in immortal bodyguard—and the real villains are inheritance-grabbing relatives with too much time on their hands. Swordheart is witty, warm, and surprisingly swoony, with adventure that feels playful rather than grim and a romance that grows out of trust, protection, and two people who didn’t ask for any of this.

The vibe

Halla has unexpectedly inherited her wealthy uncle’s estate… and immediately becomes a target for greedy relatives determined to take it from her. When she’s literally locked in her bedroom, she does the only thing available: she grabs the ancient sword hanging on the wall and unsheathes it out of desperation.

A man appears.
His name is Sarkis, an immortal warrior trapped inside the sword—enchanted steel as both prison and weapon. Sarkis is magically sworn to protect whoever wields him, and Halla is not the kind of wielder he expected. Instead of battling armies, he’s dealing with “helpful” bandits, roving inquisitors, and Halla’s own scheming in-laws—while Halla learns how to survive a world that suddenly wants to control her.

As Halla and Sarkis grow closer, they start to miss the biggest danger of all: the sword itself—and what it’s really doing to the person who holds it.
