The Sin Eater's Daughter
3 primary works
Book 1
Seventeen-year-old Twylla lives in the castle. But although
she's engaged to the prince, Twylla isn't exactly a member
of the court.
She's the executioner.
As the Goddess embodied, Twylla instantly kills anyone she touches.
Each month she's taken to the prison and forced to lay her
hands on those accused of treason.
No one will ever love a girl with murder in her veins. Even the
prince, whose royal blood supposedly makes him immune to Twylla's
fatal touch, avoids her company.
But then a new guard arrives, a boy whose easy smile belies his
deadly swordsmanship. And unlike the others, he's able to look
past Twylla's executioner robes and see the girl, not the Goddess.
Yet Twylla's been promised to the prince, and
knows what happens to people who cross the queen.
However, a treasonous secret is the least of Twylla's problems.
The queen has a plan to destroy her enemies, a plan that requires
a stomach-churning, unthinkable sacrifice.
Will Twylla do what it takes to protect her kingdom? Or will she
abandon her duty in favour of a doomed love?

Ever since her brother Lief disappeared, Errin's life has gone
from bad to worse. Not only must she care for her sick mother, she
has to scrape together rent money by selling illegal herbal cures.
But none of that compares to the threat of the vengeful Sleeping
Prince whom the Queen just awoke from his enchanted sleep.
When her village is evacuated as part of the war against the Sleeping
Prince, Errin is left desperate and homeless. The only person
she can turn to is the mysterious Silas, a young man who buys
deadly poisons from Errin, but won't reveal why he needs them.
Silas promises to help Errin, but when he vanishes, Errin must journey
across a kingdom on the brink of war to seek another way to
save her mother and herself.
But what she finds splits the world as she knows it apart, and
with the Sleeping Prince drawing nearer, Errin must make a heartbreaking
choice that could affect the whole kingdom...
