Arcana Academy (Arcana Academy, #1), Elise Kova
A woman who wields magical tarot cards lands herself in a false engagement with the headmaster of a mysterious academy in this first installment of an enthralling romantasy series from the bestselling author of A Deal with the Elf King.
Clara Graysword has survived the underworld of Eclipse City through thievery, luck, and a whole lot of illegal magic. After a job gone awry, Clara is sentenced to a lifetime in prison for inking tarot cards-a rare power reserved for practitioners at the elite Arcana Academy.
Just when it seems her luck has run dry, the academy's enigmatic headmaster, Prince Kaelis, offers her an escape-for a price. Kaelis believes that Clara is the perfect tool to help him steal a tarot card from the king and use it to re-create an all-powerful card long lost to time.
In order to conceal her identity and keep her close, Kaelis brings Clara to Arcana Academy, introducing her as the newest first-year student and his bride-to-be.
Thrust into a world of arcane magic and royal intrigue, where one misstep will send her back to prison or worse, Clara finds that the prince she swore to hate may not be what he seems. But can she risk giving him power over the world-and her heart? Or will she take it for herself?

I read this book a long time ago and considered it one of my favorites. I was surprised to see it on the syndicate’s shelves! 10/10
I bought this over a month ago and it’s still going strong.
I hate Ophelia because Blackwell should be with me 🥲
10/10 recommend!! Smut syndicate puts so much thought and love into their blind dates. So much that they reach out and look at your fable or good reads and really try to perfect your date. I look forward to this every single month
Perfect for bringing my book to the beach!!!
Read this in a day! Could not recommend enough. My favorite is there are sprinkles of little mermaid throughout, but other than that this is a story you would NEVER expect

I sent a blind date with a book to a friend and she loved it! Ordering was super easy and shipped so so fast. Highly recommend 💜
My blind date with a book was everything I hoped for and more! Unwrapping it felt like opening a gift from a friend who really gets me. The book I received was in my TBR for months! The story made me laugh, cry, and stay up way too late, but I have zero regrets. It’s the kind of date you want to tell everyone about—and I already can’t wait for the next one!
