To Touch A Silent Fury (The Bride of Eavenfold Book 1)
R A Sandpiper
A captive healer and a mysterious prince are drawn to each other in the midst of war and magic in a beguiling dark fantasy by Wall Street Journal bestselling author Charlie N. Holmberg. The kingdom of Cansere is on the brink of war. Young men are conscripted from their homes, and a royal decree from the queen has made healing the only legal form of craftlock. Nym, a healer and beekeeper, is the sole provider for her family of seven now that her younger brother has been sent to the war front. But when a letter comes from the queen, summoning Nym to the palace to heal Prince Renn, the kingdom’s ailing shut-in, Nym finds herself making the tumultuous journey from her family’s apiary to the capital city. Nym is determined to fail the queen’s mission and return to her younger siblings as soon as she can. But escaping the castle’s hold isn’t as easy as failing a simple test. Prince Renn is cold and distant, and his illness is like nothing Nym has ever seen before, nothing she could ever imagine treating. In a moment of connection with Prince Renn, Nym manages to remedy the faintest symptom of his ailment—only to discover that no healer before has made such progress. Forced to become the prince’s official healer and a ward of the castle, and with her only hope of returning to her family hinging on the prince’s recovery, Nym must navigate the castle’s cruel and twisted court and uncover the haunting truth behind Prince Renn’s illness—even as she finds herself irrevocably drawn to him.
emmyjane217:*I NEED BOOK TWO PRONTO
"I am so glad I waited to read this book, because if I had to wait any longer than a month to get the next one I would be fuming. Okay, I’m still kinda mad but that’s my fault for thinking book two was already out. This book was amazing. Such an interesting and unique type of magic. I’ve read very few books by this author i wouldn’t reccomend. So happy to be able to say this is yet another five star read from her. I loved the main characters and the world. Can’t wait to see how things come together in book two!!! ["

RasmuscleShe's a healer, he's broken
"This one was not on my radar at all but was offered with free audio on KU so I figured what the heck... and I am so glad I did. I got all but 3 chapters done on Sunday and finished it this morning. A beautiful story of a magickal healer named Nym who is conscripted to heal the prince. This prince has been deathly sick since he was very young and no healer or physician has ever been able to fix him. Magickal healing arts are outlawed for the most part so Nym is only able to help on a legal exception since the royal family will benefit from this. ...the corruption is always there, isn't it... The way she heals is by seeing the essence of your soul when she touches you, finding the pieces that are out of place and repairing them within the complete picture. Nym is able to help the prince and the story develops from there... This is the first of a series and ends on a mean cliffhanger. There is also no spice at all (a few descriptions of violations and some 🫑 scenes). I think it's important to mention too that this story is fantasy but the world is realistic. They use the same calendar as we do, it's set in medieval castles, etc. Eventually some magical creatures happen but the fantasy element comes from Nym's magick. I rated it 4 stars and I'm excited to see the next installment. ["
