"Kinsley’s Bloodmarked is an adventure-filled fantasy that’s suspenseful, sexy, and stupidly romantic. I’m wrecked." —Scriptorium Romantasy, starred review

She’s marked for death. He’s dangerous. And the bond between them might just ruin everything.

She trained for this — at Bardic Academy, where Elementalists are forged to rise or fall. But nothing prepared her for the Bloodmarked trials of Ashcover. The stakes are brutal. The magic is alive.

And survival means trusting your enemy… even when he’s the last person you’d ever choose to be bound to.

Faerwyn’s a Wind-Elementalist with days left to live. She never asked to be tethered to Thorne — the brutal, battle-scarred rival who looks like he’s carved from war and haunted by what he’s lost. But the trial doesn’t care what you want. Only what you’ll sacrifice.

Each challenge cuts deeper. The bond between them sharpens — part weapon, part tether, part forbidden temptation. Faerwyn was supposed to die alone. But now there’s a boy who breathes like fire and looks at her like she’s already his. And gods help her —

She’s not ready to let go.

Perfect for romantasy readers who want:

✨ Enemies to Lovers
✨ Forced Proximity
✨ Deadly Competition
✨ Slow Burn with High Stakes
✨ Chosen One Twist

Proof you don’t need 600 pages to be emotionally obliterated — Bloodmarked is for the girlies who want to be ruined by a book and reborn before dinner. This fast-paced novella delivers the full romantasy hit — without the full-length commitment.

For fans of Fourth Wing by Rebecca Yarros, From Blood and Ash by Jennifer L. Armentrout, and The Serpent and the Wings of Night by Carissa Broadbent — this is your next obsession.
