The Raven and the Dove (The Raven and the Dove, #1)

by Kaitlyn Davis

Aethios, her patron god, master of the sun and sky, along with six others, surrendered their material forms and used their divine power to rip the isles from the ground, lift them into the sky, and gift their faithful servants with wings. But Vesevios, god of fire, refused to sacrifice his strength and remained below, where a raging sea rushed to fill the void, drowning him and all his power as a punishment for his greed.

Rafe preferred to think of this as his brother’s royal voice, because it was a royal pain in his ass.

And that was all she’d ever wanted in a mate—someone who saw the real girl beneath the princess and accepted her.

Because his magic had saved her. His magic had created this moment. And she, and this, were magnificent.

“Love is when you find a piece of yourself in someone else, a piece you never knew was missing, but without which you'd be broken. You feel whole, and complete, and accepted for exactly who you are. You can be your true self, because around this person, for the first time you have no desire to pretend to be anyone else.”

They lifted their hands, palms pressed together. Lyana stared through the glittering sparks, finding that her words had tempted him. He watched her through the starlight their magic created.

She saved me. From the dragon. From loneliness. From myself. In so many ways, she saved me.
