Book Release Calendar » Rings of Fate by Melissa de la Cruz

Aren Bellamore, a barmaid with little patience for fairy tales, runs the Raven’s Beak tavern and dodges unwanted marriage proposals. Her life changes when Prince Dietan arrives carrying the cursed Rings of Fate, which are ancient magical weapons that are slowly killing him. Dietan needs a bride to conceal his secrets on the journey to break the curse. Aren agrees to pose as his fiancée, hoping it will grant her the freedom she craves. Their dangerous quest draws them into political schemes, ancient monsters, and rising threats, where pretend romance begins to feel very real.
