Veiled Gods Series by Jennifer Maughan is a sweeping romantasy adventure filled with political intrigue, forbidden alliances, and slow-burning romance.
In Veiled Voyage, Alana—a duty-bound warrior desperate for income—agrees to secretly escort her prince into enemy territory. When the mission goes awry, she sacrifices herself to save him, only to end up as a mercenary in a foreign land, forced to fight for survival. Her only ally is Calix, an enemy warrior with a surprising heart—and perhaps something more. As Alana battles brutal mercenaries, hidden truths, and a growing attraction, her secrets could destroy not just her—but the fragile hope of peace.
In Veiled War, Alana must navigate a new role in the enemy's empire as war looms and loyalties are tested. With her relationship with Calix under pressure and her people’s fate at risk, Alana is caught in a dangerous game of politics, betrayal, and love.
