The Hurricane Wars
A soldier of the Lightweaver rebellion is forced into a political marriage with the Night Emperor's heir, the man who has been trying to kill her for years. Southeast Asian-inspired, and the enemies part is unusually well earned. On the House's scale it rates 3 for spice (hot), 4 for how much of the book is the romance, and 4 for craft. Readers who want enemies to lovers where the war is still going on around them.
