Description

A stunning reimagining of Tristan and Isolde set in a dystopian world woven with magic. An incredibly addictive debut YA enemies-to-lovers romantasy.

‘I couldn’t turn the pages fast enough!’ Alwyn Hamilton

‘Magical, romantic and deeply nostalgic’ Sarah Underwood

It’s been thirty-seven years since the Republic was destroyed. Now, the five clans and the Kingsland fight for control.

Isadora, daughter of the clans’ leader, risks her life on the battlefield to help injured clan soldiers. But when she stops an attack from Tristan, a Kingsland assassin, his soldiers shoot her with a poisoned arrow. As Isadora lies dying, Tristan does the unimaginable: he offers to save her life using a rare magic.

Yet, in choosing to live, Isadora is unknowingly bound to the mysterious Tristan through a magical connection that could allow him access to her emotions, her deepest memories and the very information he needs to destroy the clans …

Publisher Review

'A dangerously romantic page-turner that pushes the enemies-to-lovers trope to the height of what it should be. I couldn't turn the pages fast enough! This will keep you up long past bedtime with 'one more chapter' syndrome' Alwyn Hamilton, New York Times bestselling author of Rebel of the Sands 'An unputdownable story with searing romance, buried secrets and shocking twists. I couldn't turn the pages fast enough. At its heart, a tale of love, connection and empathy after the world as we know it has fallen. Breathtaking' Rachel Greenlaw, author of Compass and Blade 'The Enemy's Daughter feels like the YA I grew up reading - magical, romantic and deeply nostalgic' Sarah Underwood, New York Times bestselling author of Lies We Sing to the Sea 'Once I started this book, I couldn't stop. Every word of this fresh, exciting romantasy was addictive - so much that I ignored everything else in my life to finish it. Poett immediately pulls you into a fast-paced read with the forced-proximity enemies-to-lovers chemistry of my dreams. With a magic system based on intimacy and feminist themes so timely for today, The Enemy's Daughter is perfect for fans of Rebel Witch and Divine Rivals and is my number one romantasy rec!! It's a must read!' Emily Varga, author of For She Is Wrath 'I raced through it in one night. Deeply romantic, this is a compulsively addictive read' The Bookseller 'With high stakes and compelling prose, The Enemy's Daughter is an addictive, creative and satisfying romantasy that won't let you stop reading. Romance readers will devour this book' Nova McBee, award-winning author of the Calculated series 'Reinvents the classic saga of Tristan and Isolde, delivering an exhilarating twist that will leave readers breathless. Poett immerses us in a spellbinding realm where magic collides with an enemies-to-lovers romance that crackles with intensity' Emily Colin, author of the Seven Sins series
