In Old Erth, elves reign supreme, controlling all other races with an iron fist. But they are not all-powerful. Unable to propagate their race, they depend on using humans as livestock, mating them with elven women to further themselves.

As a human, Leith has spent his entire life fighting in the arena in the hopes of making it to the Black Guard - the elite rank of warriors who have won their freedom. He's battled dragons and shifters and all kinds of monsters. There is only one battle left until he can finally be free from servitude.

But when he meets Alva, a rare human born from elf parents, he chooses her as his companion. Little does he know that Alva has secrets of her own. She has powers - dangerous, secret powers, that the elven nobility cannot find out about. The gladiator may be preferable to the marriage her parents have in mind for her, but Alva has never been taught how to be human.

Once Leith is free, the ruling family realise that he is too popular to keep alive. And Alva is perfectly placed to take him down. But the feelings that are growing between the pair could mean the freedom of the world - or the destruction of them all.

Reviews for Bloodguard

""Paranormal romance veteran Robson's first foray into romantasy is violent and gory, full of bloody fight scenes both in the gladiator ring and outside of it. It's also a tender love story that will appeal to readers of Milla Vane and Jennifer Armentrout."" ―Booklist ""Robson (Weird Girls) sets up the power structures and politics of her Old Erth romantasy series with this epically gory and tense love story. Robson loads the story with deadly monsters, elaborate battles, evil machinations, personal secrets, and unsavory power grabs while keeping hero Leith sympathetic and easy to root for."" ―Publisher's Weekly ""An expertly crafted page-turner with unpredictable twists, steamy romance, and magical creatures."" ―Kirkus Reviews ""Filled with gladiators, dragons, and political intrigue with generous servings of lust and spice..."" ―BuzzFeed
