Shield of Sparrows

Shield of Sparrows by Devney Perry 

Shield of Sparrows is a slow-burn, high-stakes romantasy novel perfect for fans of Sarah J. Maas and Rebecca Yarros. Set in a cursed realm haunted by gods and monsters, this gripping enemies-to-lovers tale follows a forgotten princess who refuses to be a pawn—and rises to become a warrior of her own making.

The gods sent monsters to the five kingdoms to remind mortals they must kneel.

I’ve spent my life kneeling—to the gods, to tradition, and to my father, the king. As a royal daughter, my role was simple: wear the crown, obey, and never question the rules written in blood.

But everything changed the day I stepped into the throne room.

A legendary monster hunter arrived on our shores. A foreign prince shattered my fate. And I—powerless, untested, and overlooked—was forced to seal an ancient treaty with my own blood.

Now, I journey across cursed lands beside a warrior who despises me as much as I despise him. Bound to a future I never wanted. To a husband I barely know.

They all want me to be something I’m not—a queen, a spy, a sacrifice.

But I am done being what others demand.

I will forge my own path. I will reclaim my name.
And I will show them there is power in being underestimated.
