Warring Kingdoms. Deadly Secrets. Unclaimed Power.
Seren Corso is determined to snuff out the heretical traces of mágik that slip through the cracks in her kingdom. She strikes down mágik-wielding Rázuri with hate in her heart, a soldier taking revenge for all she has lost. Blood stains her hands, yet a part of Seren still longs for the fairytale mágik of her childhood. She feels the unbidden call of the forsaken Goddesses, and when Seren discovers that mágik runs through her own veins, the life she built for herself crumbles to dust.
Harkin Aranti will do anything to protect the ones he loves. Mercenary to a callous prince, he spills the blood of innocents. Now, Harkin must do what he never has before: convince his mark to trust him, training her fledgling mágik as she tries to kill him at every turn. Death is a looming threat, and if Harkin does not complete his task by the winter solstice, it is his family who will pay the price.
As Seren and Harkin learn more about one another, they begin to realize the truths they have always believed are not so simple, and cruel men are not to be followed blindly.
Szrestia is a country divided, its two kingdoms at war, and the past threatens to shatter their budding alliance. Seren and Harkin want to mend all that is broken, but will they be strong enough to overcome that which haunts them in time to defeat those that threaten them all?
