Dianna, bound for centuries to serve a monster, is sent after an ancient relic and collides with Liam, a legendary king everyone thought was gone. A sprawling enemies-to-lovers epic, first of five.

Our take

A monster's enforcer, an exiled king, a slow-burning alliance

Dianna has spent centuries as the attack dog of something far worse than her, and her latest job forces her into a prickly partnership with a god-king who wants nothing to do with anyone. Readers love Dianna's snark and loyalty to her sister, the sniping banter that slowly turns tender, and lore dense enough to fill five books. It's a big investment: nearly 600 pages, a large cast, and a very slow burn. We picked it because few romantasy openers have this kind of staying power, with nearly a quarter-million Goodreads ratings and a fandom still growing.

Who it's for: Readers who want a long, lore-heavy enemies-to-lovers saga with a morally gray heroine and low-to-medium spice.

If you liked: A Court of Thorns and Roses by Sarah J. Maas, From Blood and Ash by Jennifer L. Armentrout

Heads-up: Long, slow burn with a sharp cliffhanger; editing is uneven and the series isn't finished (book 5 due Nov 2026).
