PHOENIX UNBOUND by GRACE DRAVEN
Ace Trade Paperback | September 25, 2018
A woman with power over fire and illusion and an enslaved son of a chieftain battle a corrupt empire in this powerful and deeply emotional romantic fantasy from the USA Today bestselling author of Radiance.
Every year, each village is required to send a young woman to the Empire’s capital–her fate to be burned alive for the entertainment of the masses. For the last five years, one small village’s tithe has been the same woman. Gilene’s sacrifice protects all the other young women of her village, and her secret to staying alive lies with the magic only she possesses.
But this year is different.
Azarion, the Empire’s most famous gladiator, has somehow seen through her illusion–and is set on blackmailing Gilene into using her abilities to help him escape his life of slavery. Unknown to Gilene, he also wants to reclaim the birthright of his clan.
To protect her family and village, she will abandon everything to return to the Empire–and burn once more.

I love the cover and what a great way to find a new series. Thanks!
Gorgeous and so apropos to her being a fire witch. Yes, the giveaway is a great idea and I already have read all, but one of those series and love them. 🙂

I will have to come back and check out your review after I read the book, but it’s encouraging to see you enjoyed it so much. 🙂
Oh, you know it. This was great and I can’t wait to see what you think. Giveaway series books are all pretty much winners for me, too.

I really enjoyed this. I want to read everything by Grace Draven. Anne – Books of My Heart
I read her novella in the winter anthology last year and now this one. Loved them both. I am definitely becoming a fan and want the backlist, too.
