✨ Married By War Buddy Read I Episode 30 ✨ Have you read the novella Married By War by Sara K.L. Wilson? Well we have! And as per usual, we had differing opinions, so no matter what kind of books you're into, we've got you covered with all the thoughts :) About the book: He's a knight bound by honor. She's a sacrificial bride. Their love cannot be. When Sir Oakensen is asked to retrieve the king's illegitimate daughter to be offered in a marriage of peace with the fae, he is hoping for nothing more than a hot meal and to keep his men alive. When Iva is told that her fate is not in the kennels raising the king's dogs, but rather to be the bride of an enemy king, she thinks her life is over. Neither of them expects love. Pursuing it could threaten two nations finally on the verge of peace.
