War of Lost Hearts Trilogy, Carissa Broadbent

Story Blurb

Book 1, Daughter of No Worlds

A former slave fighting for justice. A reclusive warrior who no longer believes it exists. And a dark magic that will entangle their fates.

Ripped from a forgotten homeland as a child, Tisaanah learned how to survive with nothing but a sharp wit and a touch of magic. But the night she tries to buy her freedom, she barely escapes with her life.

Desperate to save the best friend she left behind, Tisaanah journeys to the Orders, the most powerful organizations of magic Wielders in the world. But to join their ranks, she must complete an apprenticeship with Maxantarius Farlione, a handsome and reclusive fire wielder who despises the Orders.

The Orders’ intentions are cryptic, and Tisaanah must prove herself under the threat of looming war. But even more dangerous are her growing feelings for Maxantarius. The bloody past he wants to forget may be the key to her future… or the downfall of them both.

But Tisaanah will stop at nothing to save those she abandoned. Even if it means gambling in the Orders’ deadly games. Even if it means sacrificing her heart.

Even if it means wielding death itself.

My Thoughts/Opinion

I only included the blurb for book one because I wouldn't want to spoil one second of this amazing romantasy trilogy. When I tell you I submersed myself in this series, I mean it. I read the entire enthralling beautiful rich cinematic story in less than a week and these are not short stories. I love Tisaanah and Max as much or more than any book couple ever. I enjoyed this author's other work and expected to enjoy this as well, but certainly not to the depth in which I did. When I wasn't reading I was thinking about it. It's been a bit now since I finished and just typing this makes me want to go back and read it again. So so so good!!

Favorite Quote:

“I wanted him in so many ways. As a friend, as a kindred soul, as a fierce teammate. As skin and lips and teeth. As a hitched breathless moan in the darkness or a lazy embrace in the sunrise. I wanted that. I wanted it all.”
