Hi everyone,
Chapter Three of Faithless Vows is now up, and I wanted to say a few things after reading through your reviews.
I know this book feels different from my others, and thatās intentional. This is a heavier story. The betrayal is real, and the pain runs deep.
Ronin was a difficult hero to figure out and truly understand. His sense of right and wrong is skewed, and the way he justifies what he doesāespecially when it comes to Alannahācan feel self-serving and convenient at times. That was part of the point. The era, the setting, and the ego of that time shape the way he thinks. Without that, I donāt think the choices he makes, or even the wedding sequence, would have carried the way they needed to.
This isnāt meant to be an easy read, but I truly couldnāt see this story unfolding any other way than it does.
Iāve also posted the prologue for my betrayal-heavy Regency story, With All My Heart, J. That one will feel more familiar if you enjoy my historical romances, but it leans more toward an old school "bodice rippers" style. Iāve always tried to soften my heroes within reasonāno lairds crying in courtyards or dukes begging on their knees in front of half of Londonāso it will be a bit harder to swallow.
Alexander is a jerk. Heās wrong for a large portion of the story, convinced heās been wronged and not particularly interested in being told otherwise. Heās proud, pompous, and very set in his ways. Josephine is everything heās notākind, caring, and easy to loveāand their story is just as heart-wrenching in a different way.
I hope you enjoy the two new additions.

I love the story so far and Iām glad that you are staying true to the culture or mindset at the time. I donāt think enough people understand how far society has truly come. History can be ugly but itās important to remember it. Also if you donāt have the stomach for guy punching, tear your heart cheating stories donāt read them. I canāt stand the way some people feel the need to bully the author because the story doesnāt go the way they want it to

Now Available
Ashes of Forever
By A.M Kray
From childhood friendship
to promises of forever that were shattered by duty, fear, and class.
Ashes of Forever is an emotional historical romance about first love torn apart, a future rewritten by circumstance, and the courage it takes to choose love when the cost is unbearably high.
This is not a love story where healing is easy or forgiveness comes quickly.
It is a story where love is fought for⦠and finally, fully chosen.
LIVE NOW ā Paperback & KU
