As a general's daughter in a vast empire that revels in war and enslaves those it conquers, Kestrel has two choices: she can join the military or get married. Kestrel has other ideas.One day, she is startled to find a kindred spirit in Arin, a young slave up for auction. Following her instinct, Kestrel buys him — and for a sensational price that sets the society gossips talking. It's not long before she has to hide her growing love for Arin. But he, too, has a secret and Kestrel quickly learns that the price she paid for him is much higher than she ever could have imagined. The first novel in a stunning new trilogy, The Winner's Curse is a story of romance, rumours and rebellion, where dirty secrets and careless alliances can be deadly – and everything is at stake.

Quotes

    “My soul is yours,” he said. “You know that it is.”

    She lifted a hand, as much to block his face from her sight as to stop those words.
  • b2942177965has quoted2 years ago
    Quietly, he said, “You’re really not.”

    “I might believe you if you gave me the whole set of keys.”

    The corner of his mouth twitched. “Ah, but would you have any respect for my intelligence?”
  • b2942177965has quoted2 years ago
    Arin shook his head. “It’s harder to live.”

    Yes. It was. Kestrel had known there would be no escape tonight, and probably not for some time to come.
