Love is their weapon. Words are their war. In the summer of 1801, as empires carve Europe into bargaining chips, Lark and Rowan Blackthorn refuse to become martyrs-or monarchs. Carrying only a portable press, a bundle of blackthorn blossoms, and a manifesto that names the ground itself as sovereign, the outlaw lovers walk west-not to escape, but to ignite. From the reform riots of London to the floating palaces of the Rhine, they spark a revolution that demands no leaders, only witnesses. When petals fall, they choose open ground. When crowns are paper, they turn the page. And when the world…mehr
Love is their weapon. Words are their war. In the summer of 1801, as empires carve Europe into bargaining chips, Lark and Rowan Blackthorn refuse to become martyrs-or monarchs. Carrying only a portable press, a bundle of blackthorn blossoms, and a manifesto that names the ground itself as sovereign, the outlaw lovers walk west-not to escape, but to ignite. From the reform riots of London to the floating palaces of the Rhine, they spark a revolution that demands no leaders, only witnesses. When petals fall, they choose open ground. When crowns are paper, they turn the page. And when the world insists on writing their ending, they vanish into legend-leaving behind only ink, blossom, and the question: "What will you plant here?" The Open Ground is a historical epic where printing presses fire like cannons, love is an act of treason, and freedom blooms where least expected.
Seraphina Sinclair writes bold, intoxicating historical fiction where danger and desire walk hand-in-hand. Her critically acclaimed Phantom Chronicles series plunges readers into the gin-soaked shadows of 18th-century Europe, where master thief and folk legend Kit Valentine outwits empires with nothing but a razor wit, a stolen unicorn talisman, and a black silk ribbon hiding secrets even her lovers dare not touch. A former stage actress turned clandestine storyteller, Seraphina draws on history's forgotten rebels to craft tales of fierce women who rewrite their fate-one heist, one kiss, one betrayal at a time. Her books blend meticulously researched period detail with open-door romance, slow-burn tension, and the kind of loyalty that survives hangings, drownings, and heartbreak. When not plotting heists or tracing scars in candlelight, she haunts old bookshops and collects antique lockpicks. She lives with her rescue greyhound somewhere between Edinburgh and imagination.
