A Dawn of Onyx is such an enthralling read, with a top tier enemies-to-lovers storyline that absolutely sparkles. There’s so much delicious romantic tension and fun banter, as well as an intriguing fantasy world and magic galore, it’s truly a feast for a reader’s heart. Fans of Sarah J. Maas and Tahereh Mafi will love it. I loved it, and I can’t wait to delve into the next book in the series. Kate Golden has taken her place on my list of must-read authors * India Holton, author of The Secret Service of Tea and Treason *
A Dawn of Onyx is an electrifying start to a thrilling new romantasy series that is magical, filled with delicious tension, and left me desperate for the next installment! * Lana Ferguson, author of The Fake Mate *
A Dawn of Onyx is fun romantasy deliciousness, complete with magic, Fae, dragons, empire-shaking secrets, and a sultry, wicked king. Arwen is an appealing heroine - determined, optimistic, and empathetic, she struggles between her longing for home and the desire to spread her wings and learn more about the world. Her interactions with Kane are spiced with tension and banter, and I can’t wait to see more of this combustible pairing in the next books * Sarah Hawley, author of A WItch’s Guide to Fake Dating a Demon *

This book was such a fun read. The world building is so well done. The romance? The will they / won’t they, TENSION, enemies to lovers was so perfect.
