Half-Blood

by Jennifer L. Armentrout

First published 2024

Alexandria faces a brutal choice at seventeen. As a half-blood descended from gods and mortals, she can either train as a Sentinel hunting deadly daimons or spend her life as a servant to pure-bloods. She picks the warrior path at the Covenant, where students follow strict rules she struggles to obey. The most dangerous rule forbids relationships between pure-bloods and half-bloods, but Alexandria finds herself drawn to Aiden, a pure-blood who makes her heart race. Her romantic feelings become the least of her worries when her training takes a deadly turn. Failure means more than just washing dishes for eternity. If Alexandria cannot master her duties as a Sentinel, she faces transformation into the very creatures she trains to destroy. She would become a daimon, hunted by the boy she loves. Graduation becomes a matter of survival, love, and keeping her humanity intact.
