A paranormal romance of dream magic, haunted love, and the battle between destiny and desire.
There's no such thing as peace in Verbank—not in love, not in sleep, not even in the arms of the one who steadies her heart.
When a murder shatters the fragile calm, Shea Tobin realizes Mordai's game has only just begun. He's hunting those she can't bear to lose—and using their blood to pull her deeper into his twisted design.
Her ancestry claws at her from within. A realm beyond comprehension calls her from beyond. Every secret she unravels binds her tighter to the darkness stalking her steps.
Yet amid the chaos, something tender and defiant flickers to life—dangerously close to love.
To save the living and honor the dead, Shea must decide whether to guard her heart or wield it as a weapon. Because in a battle between destiny and desire, love itself may prove the sharpest blade—or the deadliest weakness.
Perfect for fans of Simone St. James, K.F. Breene, and Deborah Harkness.
