Synopsis

KINGDOMS WILL RISE AND FALL FOR HER

Cat Fisa isn't who she pretends to be. She's perfectly content living disguised as a soothsayer in a traveling circus, avoiding the destiny the Gods—and her dangerous family—have saddled her with. As far as she's concerned, the magic humming within her blood can live and die with her.
She won't be a pawn in anyone's game.

But then she locks eyes with an ambitious warlord from the magic-deprived south and her illusion of safety is shattered forever.

Griffin knows Cat is the Kingmaker—the woman who divines truth through lies—and he wants her to be a powerful weapon for his newly conquered realm.

Kidnapping her off the street is simple enough but keeping her by his side is infuriatingly tough. Cat fights him at every turn, showing a ferocity of spirit that burns hot … and leaves him desperate for more. But can he ever hope to prove to his once-captive that he wants her there by his side
as his equal, his companion … and maybe someday, his Queen?

Goodreads review by Jilly on September 14, 2017

So, our heroine is trying to avoid her fate and a prophecy, so she joins the circus. Until a group of guys kidnap her and tie her up in a magic rope that she can't escape from, even though she is apparently the most powerful being ever. You might even call her "special". This comic is right, our hero......more

3.75 stars I’ve had this on my kindle for awhile now and I was finally in the mood to sign up for a fantasy trilogy. (Going from a reading slump right into the deep end - each book is pretty lengthy). Initially I loved it! I mean, we got a badass heroine (she’s more powerful than the male lead), a......more
