All the Chaos of Constellations
Starstorm #1
by Hillary Raymer
The stars never lie.
Novalise has until the end of Midsummer to marry, but when fate binds her to a male who wants nothing to do with her, she finds herself uncertain of what to do—choose a husband on her own or let her brother decide for her. When a notorious assassin arrives with a tempting solution to her problem, Novalise strikes a bargain in hopes of winning her mate’s heart.
But one stolen kiss will change everything.
Asher wants nothing to do with love or the inevitable pain it brings, so when one fateful kiss reveals his mate, he immediately refuses to accept her. Until the female bound to him announces her engagement to a deadly assassin with a brutal reputation.
When he discovers a plot against the queen that puts Novalise in danger, Asher must decide whether to protect his own heart and walk away forever or challenge her betrothed in a fight he cannot win in hopes of re-claiming what he lost: her heart.
In a world of bargains and magic, betrayal and bonds, not even the stars can promise that love will prevail.
All the Chaos of Constellations is the first in a fantasy romance collection of interconnected stand-alones set in a world where marriage is necessary, but love isn’t always guaranteed. Filled with swoony, Bridgerton vibes, this spicy tale of unrequited love and fake dating brings you a broody fae lord and the darling fae lady determined to win his heart…if she isn’t forced into an arranged marriage first.
REVIEW
5 out of 5
Y’all, I cannot tell you how much I want to step into this beautiful world Raymer has created – the setting, the characters, the magic, I want to just explore it and meet everyone first hand! I loved Novalise from the start, she’s an amazing character, and it’s easy to like her. Asher could be so infuriating at times, I just wanted to shake some sense into him. Of course, things are rarely simple, and the tension in the book isn’t only between these two. (Although you could cut that tension with a knife). The story moves along at a good pace, with just enough twists to make you reluctant to stop reading once you start. Overall, cannot recommend enough for those who love tense, steamy, romantasies with gripping storylines and unforgettable characters!
