The False Vow

Love will be tested in this high-stakes, spellbinding sequel to the instant New York Times bestseller The Weaver Bride, hailed as "your next romantic fantasy obsession" (I. V. Marie, #1 bestselling author of Immortal Consequences). Lovett Tamerlane is engaged. A silkwitch whose magic can only be harnessed through marriage to a Weaver, Lovett was facing life in the cloisters when Eliot Lear offered the deal of a lifetime: an invitation to the Vainglory to compete for wealthy Weaver heir Noé Alaire's hand in marriage, in exchange for her solving his sister's murder. While they both got what they wanted, the competition was full of surprises. Lovett never expected to fall in love . . . and Eliot never anticipated that she'd betray him. Now Lovett has one goal: to take down her fiancé's father-Bastian Alaire-and end his corrupt Weaver reign at any cost. But though the Vainglory may be over, danger still lurks at Fortblanche. And when Bastian presents Lovett with one last challenge-solve a murder that occurred within his walls, before the day of her wedding-she realizes the tests aren't over. To pass this one, she'll have to partner with the only person she hates more than her future father-in-law: his son, Noé. But as Lovett will learn . . . sometimes love and hate are two sides of the same coin.
