Radiant vOWS Trigger Warnings

Below is a list of potential triggers for Radiant Vows. While I would love for everyone to be able to enjoy my books, it's more important to me for my readers to feel safe.

Triggering content includes:

  • depictions of abuse: including physical, sexual, verbal, mental, and psychological

  • graphic violence & war: battles, mass killings, and references to past genocidal wars against vampires

  • genocide & species-based hatred: systemic persecution and slaughter of vampires by humans (including by the mmc in his past)

  • incurable illness/terminal illness: a slow, painful magical plague that causes physical deterioration, weakness, and chronic suffering for the fmc

  • political marriage/forced marriage: arranged/forced union with heavy power imbalance and lack of real choice

  • captivity & confinement: forced proximity, surveillance, and restricted freedom

  • emotional & psychological manipulation: court intrigue, betrayal, gaslighting, and power plays

  • death & loss: on-page and off-page deaths, including references to family/friends lost in war

  • explicit sexual content: open-door spice with power-imbalance dynamics (including hate-sex/rough elements)

  • mentions of blood & blood play: vampiric elements, feeding, and blood-related intimacy

  • suicidal ideation/self-sacrifice: themes of choosing death or risking everything for a greater cause

  • torture & physical harm: references to past and present torture, burning, and weaponized sunlight against vampires

  • heavy political intrigue & betrayal: assassination plots, secret rebellions, and layered lies

 

additional notes:

  • there is no rape or non-con between the main couple.

  • the romance is a true slow-burn enemies-to-lovers with intense hate for a large portion of the book.

  • the story contains graphic descriptions of pain from the fmc’s illness and the violent world.
