The Demon and The Raven: A Story of Conquest and Romance (A Fantasy Dark Romance) by Paul Willson

An evil and feared emperor. A woman who is given in tribute by her father. An unexpected love between them.

Emperor Andras, the Demon of Galitia, sits malignantly on the throne of the defeated Kingdom of Jotrel, the last kingdom to have resisted his conquest of the continent of Ostria, accepting tributes from his new subjects. The poor Duke Tyrese submits his only daughter, Korbela.

However, Korbela’s defiant stare unnerves, yet intrigues Andras, and against his Vizier’s advice, he accepts her as the duke’s tribute.

Whenever Andras demands her presence, Korbela spends her time with him, attempting to defy and undermine him. Yet the more she does, Korbela discovers that beneath his cruel exterior lies a complex character, capable of kindness and brutality in equal measure.

However, she also finds years of war have caused Andras to be haunted by a demon that urges him to commit acts of savagery, before he is gripped by intense feelings of remorse, by what the demon has made him do, which threatens to break him.

As a deep bond develops between them, Korbela must free Andras from the demon attempting to control him before it is too late.

"The Demon and The Raven" is an enemies-to-lovers fantasy dark romance.
