I'm searching for ARC readers for Spoils of War, a dark romantic fantasy standalone full of tension, character-driven stakes, humor, twisted tropes like the popular one body trope, asshole moons, and bureaucracy.
Release date is 2026/12/12, and I’m planning to send the eARCs 2026/10/23. Spoils of War is about 190k words long, and there won't be a review deadline or weird author demands.
🌙 One Body (anyone can do one horse or one bed) 🌙 Idiots to Lovers 🌙 Forced Proximity 🌙 Character-driven 🌙 MCs around thirty 🌙 Slow Burn 🌙 Banter 🌙 Morally Questionable MCs 🌙 Fated Mates (with questionable origins) 🌙 Open Door Spice 🌙 Unique Worldbuilding 🌙 Many Species (decided by Birth Moon) 🌙 Bureaucracy

Synopsis:
“If you require an introduction, so be it. My name is Grandmaster Asinios Nyceas Laconos the Third, Domitor of Karagat, Lord and Warden of Lerlonia, and you, puny vessel, have just understood how thoroughly screwed you are, right?”
—
Welcome to the Realm of the Ten Moons, a world ruled by the one thing mightier than birthright—bureaucracy. So, pay your taxes, keep your head down, and for your own sake, don’t accept dubious amulets, no matter how shiny they are. You have been warned.
—
Have you ever woken up after accepting a pretty amulet, hearing a voice in your head, demanding from you to become their vessel?
No? Good for you.
Because I wouldn’t recommend this experience. Especially not when said voice turns out to be the loser of the war he waged with your kingdom, and who awaits his death sentence in jail. Well, his body is. But his mind is dead set on saving his own skin—literally.
But I can’t shake the feeling that “helping” him is only the start.

Spoils of War is a dark but humorous romantic fantasy standalone happening in the absurd Realm of the Ten Moons. Expect a character-driven story before the backdrop of unique world-building blending fantasy elements, bureaucracy, and romance. Expect tropes getting turned upside down, two morally compromised MCs around thirty, and a rich realm burying the deeper problems under a mountain of paperwork.
This book is 18+ and contains difficult and questionable scenes. Please mind the trigger warnings.
This novel is written in first person, past tense, with dual points of view.
