The Painted Woman Publisher's Summary

She’s a courtesan who sees everything. He’s a rebel that burns too bright. Together, they find love that could shake an empire.

As one of the kingdom’s painted women, Sigrid understands power is performance. She’s trained to charm, to listen, to be desired. Every gesture has meaning, every word is a negotiation.

When a rebel leader crashes into her world in need of sanctuary, Sigrid recognizes the danger he is in – and also the opportunity. His cause threatens the empire that makes decisions for her people and keeps them under an oppressive rule. He has conviction, and it stirs something she hasn’t felt in a long time: desire. Desire for him, and desire for freedom. As unrest spreads and loyalties begin to fracture, Sigrid must decide how far she’s willing to go—and who she is willing to become. In a world where intimacy is both a weapon and a shield, choosing love may very well be the boldest strike she can make.

Can love bloom in the shadows of war?

The Painted Woman is a slow-burn, high stakes romantasy about rebellion, desire, and the cost of freedom. Perfect for fans of Kushiel’s Dart and The Jasmine Throne.
