Buckle up, because this story hits the ground running. Medra Pendragon, exiled fae princess and last of the dragon riders, finds herself a captive of the brooding highblood vampire Blake Drakharrow. Forced into the role of his second betrothed, Medra must navigate the perilous, politically charged halls of Bloodwing Academy, where blightborn mortals are treated as expendable property by the vampiric elite.
Was Medra’s arrival in Sangratha pure coincidence or the fulfillment of a centuries-old prophecy binding vampires, fae, and dragons together in a destiny written in blood?

Overall, On Wings of Blood was a highly enjoyable read. The writing is straightforward and easy to follow, allowing the darkly imaginative world and complex power dynamics to take center stage. Briar Boleyn strikes a fine balance between lush worldbuilding and fast-paced storytelling, creating a tale that’s as emotional as it is thrilling. Medra’s strength and defiance make her an easy character to root for, and the tension with Blake crackles on every page. If you enjoy dark academia settings, morally gray characters, and a slow-burn enemies-to-lovers romance wrapped in gothic intrigue, this book is absolutely worth your time.
