A Promise of Fire by Amanda Bouchet
I can't even with this book. I was turned onto it by a friend and it was SO GOOD. I love a great YA fantasy series and this one delivered! If you like ACOTAR, Air Awakens, or series like them, you will LOVE this series.
This series had everything. A fantastic heroine who fights for those she loves and boy does she love deeply. It has the torrid past with the impending evil, AND IT HAD GRIFFIN. I mean really all it needs it him and Cat. Once Amanda threw them together I was good to go.
THE ANGST. Like I just can't. It was fantastic.
Something about reading a YA that moves you like this is just SO much sweeter than one without the angst.
I can't wait to see where this series goes because it had made So many promises and I want to see them delivered!

Synopsis:
Catalia "Cat" Fisa is a powerful clairvoyant known as the Kingmaker. This smart-mouthed soothsayer has no interest in her powers and would much rather fly under the radar, far from the clutches of her homicidal mother. But when an ambitious warlord captures her, she may not have a choice…
Griffin is intent on bringing peace to his newly conquered realm in the magic-deprived south. When he discovers Cat is the Kingmaker, he abducts her. But Cat will do everything in her power to avoid her dangerous destiny and battle her captor at every turn. Although up for the battle, Griffin would prefer for Cat to help his people willingly, and he's ready to do whatever it takes to coax her…even if that means falling in love with her.
