Hopeless Necromantic

Hopeless Necromantic by Isabel Jensen is a sharp, funny romantic fantasy where battlefield duty collides with forbidden attraction, and the dead refuse to stay quiet. When fresh recruit Helspira accepts the mission everyone else avoids, she’s stuck escorting Sikras: a maddeningly charming necromancer who’s already failed twice to stop an undead army gathering on the kingdom’s fringe.

No one expects success — least of all Sikras — but the road forces uneasy teamwork, hard choices, and a slow shift from rivalry to something more dangerous. As buried secrets surface and the threat tightens, Helspira and Sikras have to decide what they’re willing to risk for the living… and for each other. Skeletal sidekick Benjamin adds just the right dose of chaos without stealing the stakes.

Perfect for readers chasing **romantasy**, enemies-to-allies tension, **necromancy**, and witty banter with a dark edge.
