Reign & Ruin

Naime is heir to the Sultanate of Tamar, but as a woman she will be married off so that a husband can rule in her place, unless she finds another way. Makram, the feared death mage and brother of the ruler of neighboring Sarkum, comes to her in secret looking for an alliance while magic fails and war gathers. Politics first, then a slow burn that turns very steamy, high spice, happy ending.
