Run From Me: Poison & Wine

When headstrong Princess Ivy Crestieene of Iosnos is shipped across the sea to the more prosperous country of Asmye, a terrifying new husband meets her at the altar. Dropped into a treacherous, erotic, and toxic arranged marriage, Ivy is thwarted in her attempts to be a good wife and leader by her controlling husband, King Rian Garreau, and his court of religious fanatics, and violent devotees. While struggling to conceive an heir, the threat of violence looms heavy as she finds herself at the center of a decades long war and an unwilling convert into a dark, fantastical religion. After an attempt on Queen Ivy's life, her new bodyguard becomes her closest friend and a window into the inner workings of Asmye. As Ivy adapts to her new life, her feelings for King Rian transform from beastly hostility into a fiery passion that burns through every hesitation. But Rian's haunted past still hides in plain sight, churning the waves of their relationship and leading Ivy further down a path of temptation and into the arms of a mysterious new paramour.
