ROMANTASY AUTHOR
SHE'S NOT A VERY GOOD SPY. HE'S HER SEXY MARK.


From award-winning author Sarah Marie Page comes a stunning new adult enemies-to-lovers romantasy featuring a simmering slow-burn romance between a vengeful spy and an enemy general's alluring second-in-command on opposite sides of a pending war.
As the royal physician of a tiny, windswept island, Isabel spends her days trying to keep the queen from dying and the mad king from streaking naked down the halls. But when her best friend is found murdered on the beaches, her world is ripped apart. Desperate for answers, she discovers a stash of letters that reveal a terrifying truth: the neighboring kingdom of Volgaard possesses a kingdom-shattering weapon and is poised to conquer everything in its path.
Seeking vengeance, Isabel infiltrates the enemy. Her mission? Woo Erik Lothgarson, the general’s steamy, illusion-magic wielding son, and steal the dangerous weapon. She can bring Volgaard to its knees—if she isn’t caught.
But as Isabel dances along the knife edge of deception, the lines between truth and fiction blur, and she must wrestle her quest for vengeance against her undeniable attraction to the enemy.


Quick FAQs:
Q: Will there be a second book?
A: Yes! This is a duology, and I'm writing the second book right now! I don't have a release date yet, but am shooting for late 2025. As of the time of updating this (February 2025), I'm about halfway through the second draft. My email list is the best place to be if you want more regular updates about the second book.
Q: Will there be hardcovers?
A: Eventually! But right now I don't have a date on those. Probably sometime in 2025. I have to coordinate the hardcover release with my agent so as not to interfere with what she is doing with the book, and the second book is more of a priority.
