SOLVED. Adult Fantasy. Girl is raised to make enemy fall in love with her, he is magical (shadows??) and only comes once a year and refuses her several times. [s]

It’s another fantasy enemies to lovers. I feel like there was a temple included? That she only went to when she was supposed to be taken by the enemy to marry him. But her end goal was to kill him by making him fall in love, which is what is said to kill him

When did you read it?

How old are these characters?

Is this book for teens or adults?

[Gabriela]

I think I read it within three years. The characters are probably like 16-22? Well the girl is. I think the guy is older. And it’s adult pretty sure

[Gabriela]

I FIGURED IT OUT! I was reading The War of Two Queens and read a sentence that sounded a bit familiar… the book is A Shadow in the Ember- the prequel series to Blood and Ash

Glad you found it!
