A Dance Of Lies 🩰✨💙

💫A debut fantasy romance filled with hope after heartbreak, secrets and betrayal, as a dancer-turned-spy must decide how far she will go to secure her freedom.

💫This one is high up on the TBR ! Everyone I know has been raving about this. I’m going to try and fit it in somewhere next month because I can’t stop thinking about all the tropes, court intrigue, and the magic sounds so unique and fascinating.

💫This photoshoot was done at Botanical Building to show off this stunningly detailed cover.

💫 Thank you Del Rey Books & @Brittney Arena for this #gifted finished copy.
