A YA fantasy about two teens destined to inherit a magical empire, who must put aside their misgivings about each other when a deadly plot is unearthed. Publication is scheduled for fall 2020
As a powerful witch and heir to the throne, Adraa has been groomed to be Belwar’s next leader. She studies all nine colors of magic, trains in diplomacy, and reluctantly accepts an arranged marriage to the arrogant boy from the neighboring land. But Adraa soon finds not all problems can be solved from the safety of the palace. When she learns that the Vencrin, a group of drug-selling thugs, are destroying her people’s magic she dons a mask and takes to the streets to stop them.
Keeping her identity hidden and herself in one piece in the midst of an underground fighting ring is hard enough, but once her fiancé returns home, a royal guard shows up, insisting on joining her mission. Unaware of Adraa’s true identity, he becomes her partner and newest problem. But before they can uncover the Vencrin’s plans, this mismatched pair of vigilantes will need to learn who they’re teaming up with and, just possibly, falling for.

It’s been a long time since I’ve read a YA novel and this sounds so good! Like, the author may really know what she’s doing with fantasy!
