A Promise of Fire (Kingmaker Chronicles #1) by Amanda Bouchet

[BLURB]


KINGDOMS WILL RISE AND FALL FOR HER...
BUT NOT IF SHE CAN HELP IT

Catalia "Cat" Fisa lives disguised as a soothsayer in a traveling circus. She is perfectly content avoiding the danger and destiny the Gods-and her homicidal mother-have saddled her with. That is, until Griffin, an ambitious warlord from the magic-deprived south, fixes her with his steely gaze and upsets her illusion of safety forever.

Griffin knows Cat is the Kingmaker, the woman who divines the truth through lies. He wants her as a powerful weapon for his newly conquered realm-until he realizes he wants her for much more than her magic. Cat fights him at every turn, but Griffin's fairness, loyalty, and smoldering advances make him increasingly hard to resist and leave her wondering if life really does have to be short, and lived alone.





[MY THOUGHTS]
5 out of 5 stars


The Kingmaker Chronicles is a must read! Perfect amount of humor, romance, and action. I couldn't put it down! This is joining my collection of favorites.

Sexy warlord meets powerful woman....

Actually... sexy warlord abducts woman to use her magical skills to change the realms.

The story about Cat and Griffin is adventurous, steamy, and funny. All the characters involved are also well constructed and entertaining. I can't wait to see what Amanda Bouchet writes next!!!
