EBOOK
About
The first novel in an eerie, darkly creative, and romantic new gothic fantasy duology from Maxym M. Martineau, for readers of Sarah J. Maas and Rachel Gillig.
Edira Brillwyn is a threadmender. She holds a rare, lifesaving power that can cure disease and heal injuries in the blink of an eye. But magic always comes with a cost, and saving anyone sacrifices a sliver of her own life. She's always kept her abilities hidden…until the powerful Fernglove family discovers her secret.
The Ferngloves are charming and beautiful, possess powerful magic, and don't take no for an answer-especially Orin, the head of these ruling elites. When Edira's brothers unexpectedly contract blight-an incurable virus killing people throughout the town, and an illness too strong for her to heal them both-Orin offers to help. Together at his estate they'll research a cure while Orin slows their sickness and Edira hones her magic. His kindness and honesty surprises Edira, as does her undeniable attraction to him.
But the other Ferngloves are suspicious of her power and may be more dangerous than the ever-present disease. The longer Edira stays within the confines of the Manor, the more the family's pristine exterior begins to crack-until Edira discovers a terrifying secret and must choose who she can save and at what cost…
"House of Blight is romantic fantasy at its finest. Martineau has created a world so vivid that the only thing that surpasses it is the cast of characters you can't help but fall in love with. The perfect mixture of magic, romance, and darkness, this is the romantasy every reader needs on their shelves." - Alexa Martin, author of Better Than Fiction
"Martineau weaves together a beautiful, lyrically written tale of romance mixed with dark stakes that bite. House of Blight has all the ingredients to captivate romantasy readers from the very first page and keep them under her spell til the very last!" - Lyssa Mia Smith, author of Revelle
"Martineau weaves a tale so rich in detail, you can feel cool soil between your fingertips and smell the fresh scent of moss as you live Edira's story with her. A sumptuous blend of fantasy and intrigue, grim realities and glowing magic-I'm looking forward to following the intertwined threads of romance and doom into what I sincerely hope is a continuing fantasy.
