Welcome
back agents for my birthday release, the first book in a series that began its journey on Kindle Vella and is now yours in ebook, KU, paperback, and hardback (hopefully soon in audiobook too)!
She's a noblewoman turned thief.
He's the Sacred Prince.
Neither recall being betrothed.
When
Elspeth loses everything in one night for the crime of being born an
elf, she wants vengeance. Forced to resort to banditry in order to
survive, her forest becomes a safe haven for others dismissed by the
Empire. But becoming the Bandit Queen isn't enough to compensate for the
castle she lost; only the royal palace will do. To become the Empress,
though, she first needs to save the Sacred Prince.
After a
devastating decree, Prince Otello intends to put his empire to rights
and make restitution. If that means taking on a false name to better
investigate the crimes committed against the elves, so be it. Perhaps he
can even locate the noblewoman who plagues his dreams like a lost
memory. The last thing he anticipates, though, is the vexing maiden on
the wrong side of the law — and his own growing desire to rescue her
from the clutches of the Bandit King.
A prophecy of destruction tore them apart. Now a vision of doom will unite them.
The
beginning of an epic closed-door romantic fantasy that's Robin Hood
meets King Arthur as the fate of an empire is shaped by two stubborn
lovers. Perfect for fans of Shari L. Tapscott, Alisha Klapheke, and
Elise Kova.
Survive the Empire.
Save the Prince.
Secure the Throne.
Rating🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟/5( yup you saw that right!! I'm officially in love again)
Highlight:
📌“After
the province was shaken by the Night of Broken Walls, a new legend
arose. The avenging Bandit King. No one quite knows who he is, whether
man or elf. But they say he steals from the rich and delivers the poor.”
Review:
"This
book was EVERYTHING!! As if I couldn't love her writing even more Jes
penned this book and made my heart pitter patter, flitter flutter and
all the fluffy alliteration, the acquaintance to enemies to maybe
friends(okay that's stretching it..... allies maybe) the way the
characters are crafted shows Jes' masterful craftsmanship and the plot
is just so brilliantly constructed."

"What a fun first installment in Jes Drew’s
Sunset at Dawn series! Robin Hood meets King Arthur in this story of
revenge, prophecies, and unwittingly betrothed MCs. I really enjoyed the
main couple of the story, Elspeth and Prince Otello, and their
relationship and banter was so much fun."
-Meigan
"This was a character driven story with a rich
history and the plot was well developed and written. I am excited to
learn more about the characters and how their lives get entwined after
the recent developments."
-Belinda Smith
An epic adventure NA romantic fantasy. Rated PG-13 for some action and
fantasy
violence, strong romantic themes (latter books include fade-to-black
scenes between a married couple), some horror elements, and adult themes (discussion of issues
adults face). There is magic in this world based on bloodlines as well
as dark magic that is unnatural and viewed unfavorably. Recommend ages
16+
Sequel (releasing now as a serial):
His throne was stolen from him.
The Bandit Queen will help reclaim it —
With the condition that he wed her.
Elspeth
has performed her greatest heist yet: stealing the Sacred Prince from
the capital just as a release of dark magic turned its citizens against
him. That was the easy part. Now she has to safely deliver the reluctant
refugee across the province to her camp where he believes the Bandit
King will bargain with his army to help Otello reclaim his stolen
throne. Except, she is the Bandit King, and that bargain is a marriage
arrangement.
Otello's life was turned upside-down in a single
moment. Now he's forced to ally himself with the woman who betrayed him
with a kiss if he wants to survive, let alone have a chance at seizing
back the seat of his empire from the necromancer who wants his blood. As
does everything else, it seems, from vampires to gysts. All that is,
except the one the magic in his veins has imprinted on, the right hand
of the Bandit King who he knows better than to trust with anything, let
alone his heart.
He is prophesied to save the Empire. She is destined to destroy him.
