A Vow of Thorns
In Victorian-era France, noble duty is everything especially for Victoria Everleigh, a sharp-tongued young woman being forced into an arranged marriage to restore her family's standing. Her betrothed, the brooding and untouchable Lord Easton Vale, sees her as nothing more than a spoiled pawn in a high-stakes game of power and prestige.

In Tenebris, love is a weapon - and the most beautiful promises are the ones designed to break you. Lady Selene of House Auclair has spent her life in silence, haunted by a bloodline the Empire wants forgotten. Her betrothal to Prince Reverien Latimer is not mercy. It is a warning. The court calls it peace. But beneath the marble floors and moonlit halls, everyone knows this union was forged with ulterior motives - power, punishment, and something far darker. The Imperial Court is a nest of predators draped in silk. Smiles hide sharpened teeth. Secrets bleed through the walls. And Selene, the quiet noblewoman they dismissed, is far more dangerous than they realized. Her fiancé is no exception. Reverien is a man carved from discipline and shadows - a prince with cold hands, a colder reputation, and loyalties bound in blood. Yet he is drawn to Selene in ways neither of them can afford. Their bond is not gentle. It is a slow-burning collision of defiance, desire, and unspoken hunger - a partnership that could save an empire... or shatter it from within. As whispers sharpen into threats and forbidden longing coils between them, Selene must decide which is more perilous: the danger stalking the court... or the prince who shares her bed. Because in Tenebris, a single kiss can crown you - or condemn you.![Sleight of Hand [Show 'em Who's Boss #1]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/1007497-256-k526391.jpg)
