For fans of time travel romance, fantasy romance books for adults and teens, and young adult adventure series, Perilous Defiance delivers an unforgettable, heart-pounding continuation of the Devious Arcana saga.
When the malevolent pirate wizard Kizzon Ahlm uses dark sorcery, and the blood of Lady Cecelia's mother, to trace her and Lord Braiden through time, the stakes couldn't be higher. The duo possesses the only enchanted key capable of unlocking Grimm the Marauder's legendary treasure vault, and Kizzon will stop at nothing to retrieve it.
As they plunge deeper into their perilous journey, Braiden and Cecelia are faced with thrilling dilemmas that test the limits of their love and resilience. Their bond is put to the ultimate test in this high-stakes YA enemies to lovers-style storyline, where survival depends on heart, cunning, and trust. With everything they hold dear in jeopardy, they race against time, sometimes on different paths, sometimes apart, but always with the goal of reuniting.
Braiden finds himself trapped in the distant past, locked in a strange cell with no food, no water, and no access to the magical pocket-watch that brought him through time. But even those challenges pale in comparison to the one that truly haunts him, Lady Cecelia is gone.
Determined to reunite with the woman he loves, Braiden must traverse fantastical kingdoms, evade magical threats and ruthless foes, and unravel the mystery of the pocket-watch's true powers. His journey through time is filled with danger, mythical creatures, and emotional reckoning.
