In a war-torn kingdom ruled by ancient magic and fae law, Talia is sent to kill the prince whose armies destroyed her home. But when her blade strikes, something older and darker intervenes. A vow - bound in blood and memory - takes hold of them both, tying her to the enemy she swore to destroy. The bond isn’t just magic. It watches. It listens. It remembers. Now trapped inside a fae court full of secrets, Talia must survive the politics of power, the slow pull of the vow, and the prince who’s as dangerous as he is unreadable. Darian should be her enemy. And yet the longer they remain bound, the more the vow changes - reacting not to force, but to something neither of them understands. Marked by the Enemy is the first book in The Binding Vow, a six-book romantasy series about memory-based magic, enemies tied by ancient power, and a bond that evolves with every choice they make. With court intrigue, a dark and sentient vow, and a slow-burn romance that turns to spice in later books, this series is perfect for fans of Throne of Glass, From Blood and Ash, The Serpent and the Wings of Night, and Fourth Wing.
