*ALREADY OBSESSED? PRE-ORDER A QUEEN CROWNED IN FLAMES NOW*
Born to rule. Blessed by fire. Broken by desire.
Once a territory built on matriarchal rule, Tìr Teine has been without a female heir for centuries and an oppressive anti-magic teaching has infected the land - leading to the tragic decline of the dragons.
Gifted with fire magic from the Goddess Brigid, Aemyra has hidden in the shadows for years, waiting for the king to die so she can bond to his dragon, claim her birthright and protect her people.
But when her carefully laid plans are foiled, Aemyra is thrust into a deadly game of politics and plots. Her greatest enemy? Prince Fiorean - the dragon-riding, fire-wielding royal whose icy arrogance and raw power thwart her every step.
As chaos engulfs the court, Aemyra and Fiorean are forced to forge an uneasy alliance that ignites into something neither of them can control.
Behind enemy lines and slowly falling for the one man she cannot trust, Aemyra begins to uncover the true weight of the crown. How much is she willing to sacrifice to claim her throne?

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
A queen promises an end to patriarchy in this familiar romantasy duology opener from McBride (the Ocean's Daughter series). Under its original matriarchy, Tir Teine thrived, but for the past century, kings have sat on its throne, running the country into the ground and weakening its magic. Aemyra Daercathian, daughter of Tir Teine's exiled Prince Draevan, is the rightful heir to Tir Teine's throne. When the current king dies, she seizes the opportunity to bond with his dragon and so claim his crown. She almost succeeds, but the patriarchal reigning clan, led by Prince Fiorean, disputes her legitimacy and overthrows her nascent court. She flees, leaving behind her younger brother, Lachlann, who is killed by Fiorean's army. Fierce, grieving Aemyra marches right back into the castle to avenge him—but instead she's kidnapped and forced to marry Fiorean, igniting a steamy enemies-to-lovers romance that moves rather too quickly. Though there's little original about the plot, McBride builds a promising universe and populates it with a fascinating cast, and the feminist themes are welcome. Plus, the angsty ending sets things up nicely for book two. Fans of Sarah J. Maas will be pleased. Correction: A previous version of this review mischaracterized the circumstances around Lachlann's death.
