Happy #coverreveal week to @angryrobotbooks and @stacebookspace for Chasm 😍
It’s so gorgeous! Book one, Ledge, was one of my top favorite books of last year and, dare I say, of all time. Seriously, I am obsession. So so good. If you haven’t read it yet, run don’t walk.
Dawsyn’s miraculous escape from the Ledge was just the beginning. In the queens’ dungeon, Dawsyn awaits her execution while reliving the death of her lover, Ryon. There is no hope for mercy.
But hope finds her in the form of rescue by her village friends. On the run and struggling to tame her newly-gained and greatly unstable powers, Dawsyn’s journey continues. As she ascends the perilous mountain slopes once again to the Glacian kingdom in a desperate attempt to save those remaining on the Ledge, she discovers a new evil awaiting her. With a contingent of hundreds, she must lead her people way, but she has no way of knowing what will lie ahead, or what might follow behind…
Fighting with her ax and newfound power is arduous enough, but finds she must also battle her feelings of betrayal and hope when those she thought lost forever, may not be gone after all…
THEMES: enemies to lovers; spicy romance; badass heroines; sacrifice; loneliness; independence
“Seal your eyes and sleep,
Still your lips, cease your breath;
Lie where sorrow dares not be,
Free from the hands of death”
Release date: 12th September 2023

No, seriously, Lizzy. When did you first know you were in love with Mr. Darcy?
It came on so slowly I hardly know… but I believe I must date it from the time I first saw his wonderful grounds at Pemberley.
