A tragic romance that discusses sacrifice, death, and m*rder

Sacrifice is a romantasy that has you wanting to come back for more. I couldn’t help but get sucked into this novel as it is different from the novels that I’ve read in the past/usually read. While I’m a sucker for spicy romances, it was nice to read a sweet story that doesn’t revolve around the spicier side of a relationship. 

Atlas and Zarya take you on an adventure through a beautifully built world. Through their interactions with each other and the other characters they come across, Bishop’s use of her characters to address the varying conflicts in the novel in a way that’s engaging makes Sacrifice such a joy to read. 

For me this is definitely a recommended read for fantasy lovers. Whether you prefer non-romance novels or romantasy, this one may just be in your wheel house because it’s not too heavy on the romance side of things. Can’t wait for the official release.
