From the bestselling author Kristin Cast comes a new tarot-inspired fantasy series. Scarlett St. Clair meets Outlander in the seductive and spellbinding world of Towerfall, starting with The Empress, a high-heat, fake marriage romantasy with a swoon-worthy, morally-gray love interest.

The Arcana arent just figures in a tarot deck—theyre real. Terrifyingly real. Thats what I learned when I found a tarot card in the snow and was yanked from my world and into Towerfall. The first thing the people of this harsh, cruel realm did was try to kill me, and they probably would have succeeded if Kane hadnt taken me to his hideout in the woods and nursed me back to health.

I dont know if I can trust him. Hes too hot to be good news, hes definitely hiding secrets, and Ive already seen him kill two people to protect me. If I hadnt just been helplessly dumped into his world, the blood on his sword and his dark, brooding mood would have me running in the opposite direction.

But right now, convincing the Kingdom of Pentacles that Kane and I are married is my best chance of getting into the palace, and back to my own world.

Because theres something wrong with Towerfall. Something deeply, deadly wrong. And if anyone finds out Kane and I arent really husband and wife?

Well, then both of us are dead.
